Persians do show up a lot in CFA finals. CFA generally has more Persian entries than other breeds so it's a bit of a proportional thing though I did see somewhat more diversity in the 2017 finals. TICA has far fewer Persians at shows (least that's been my experience) and so have fewer in finals.

Usually cats go to shows when they're still kittens, and can go to quite a few, too - so most do become conditioned to the general bustle of a show. Earliest entry age is 4 months for CFA (and, I think, most registries) though I believe "for sale" kittens can enter a show hall at 3 months (could be wrong, been a long time since I inquired). Also, these cats are bred to be amenable to handling, though one does see the occasional surprise.

@DougguoD

It did appear on a national network, at least once. When the show was held in San Mateo in 2005 it was intended to be a media event, with all sorts of high tech stuff like digitized communication panels, mic'ed judges and a high production finale (least for a cat show) which was eventually shown on The Game Channel (if I remember correctly) which wasn't exactly the ideal content format for a cat show. I'd just thought at that show that it'd be kinda fun to photo the show - with a still camera (a rather unimpressive still camera, at that time). Did that for the following shows 'till I realized video would be more interesting for me, so I've done vid for a number of shows, but not that one. When this International show was held in Atlanta in 2008/2009 (don't remember which show) CNN was there with a vid team and they shot a LOT of video - but they didn't know what to do with it 😄

Oh, they are. I concentrate on Persians and Zots and record other longhairs while looking for them. This leaves the shorthairs kinda short for me - but if I do see an interesting cat I will stop to vid them. Luck of what I see as I'm wandering around. There are longhair folds too, but they're judged in the shorthair section, just as Zots are judged in longhairs. I am seeing a lot of Devons scheduled for the 2017 International so I'll make an effort to vid some of them. Maybe I'll get lucky and vid some Burmillas too. Hopefully also some Folds. Should be easier to do with 1 show instead of two (Red/Purple) and so fewer cats. Kitten class is always huge, though. Overall, I'm seeing 123 Persians & Zots - so that will keep me busy.

Can anyone explain the naming style, do they use long names to make sure no one's mixed up?

@DougguoD

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, it's as you say - with some extras. Think of every cat being called Fluffy... so which Fluffy is which? Cat associations/registries define the parameters for naming, with a character length limit so a cat's name isn't a complete family tree... The usual convention is the originating cattery name (where the cat was born) then some sort of individual name, like say Fluffy, and if the cat's moved to a different cattery there's often a suffix which is that cattery name. Kittens often don't have the prefixes/suffixes 'cause the breeder/exhibitor's not sure they'll be appearing at another cat show, kitten showing is a sorta test run for a show career - they may not be suited one way or another, and officially registering a cat by name does cost some money.

Most registries use some sort of point system. Here's a link to CFA's Persian breed standard, points listed at the start: www.cfa.org/Portals/0/documents/breeds/standards/persian.pdf Using this system, as well as comparing same breed cats, they can compare say, Persians to Siamese, to see which particular cats best represent their breed standard. Of course this allows for subjective opinion, thus a flashy cat tends to attract more positive attention. That's how judges assess individual cats in class judging. Ranking cats at a show and thus awarding show points is something different, whereby points are awarded based on the number of competitors for a specific cat. And again, different associations/registries do things differently. FIFe shows are quite differently from CFA shows.
