Showing with TICA

Showing with The International Cat Assocation is altogether a bit more complicated than GCCF showing but is a more relaxed atmosphere as you take your own cats to the judging rings and only you and the judge handle your cat.

This suits some cats and not others - your cat needs to be relaxed and happy being judged on a table in the centre of the ring and happy being carried around a busy show hall.  You can however remain with your cat all day and many cats prefer this security.

I started typing out a whole explanation about showing with TICA but TICA does it better than me!  please see this site http://tica.org/public/showing.php for a run down of the TICA showing system and this page here http://www.tica-uk.org.uk/html/shows.html for the UK show calendar.

The UK TICA site has a great page explaining showing too http://www.tica-uk.org.uk/html/how_to_show.html
