This coming Saturday/Sunday September 8-9 is Lilys next show. She is 8 points away from her Grand Premiership!! She (most likely) will only have to make 1 final out of 8 rings! Last show we went to we had the same scenario but she didnt make it:( . Hope we have better luck this time!

Then on September 22-23 there is another cat show, this will be Tanzies first show in the kitten ring and hopefully Lilys first show as a GP! Im so excited! :D :-D

Thanks everyone:) I hope everything goes as planned:D And hopefully Tanzie loves the shows. I have a feeling she will be just like her dad, letting everyone know shes in the show hall, especially when shes in the ring:p Well, thats how her dad is..

Lilys a new Grand Premier!:-D She did very well. The first day she made one final getting 2 ribbons (2nd best shorthair premier and 2nd best allbreed premier) and 12 points (only needed 8 )! She got transferred to Grand Premier for the second day of the show and made 3 out of the 4 finals:shock: ! She has never gotten the big rosettes before in the Premiership class! And now as a Grand she got 3 in one day! I cant believe being a Grand makes that big of a difference!

On the 2nd day Lily (shes now a Grand) made 3 finals earning the rosettes for 10th best, 9th best and.....3rd best cat!!:-D Im so proud of her and cant wait until the next show!

Well the second show didnt go as well. Tanzie did ok, she was scared (always had a poofy tail in the ring:lol: ). But by the end of the show Tanzie went in 1 ring and only got a poofy tail at the end, so that was an improvement for her.

Lily on the other hand didnt do so well. She had been improving little by little (being ok with showing) each show, but at this last show she made it clear to me she didnt want to do it anymore. So she wont be showing anymore.

A friend of mine was at the show as well, she is a Siamese cat breeder and had 2 meezers entered as well. She gave me an awesome tip! She said she feeds her meezers raw steak and it makes their bodies harder (since the standard wants a hard body). She let me feel her cats body and it was slightly softer than a rock:shock: It was absolutely amazing! I was always told Lilys body was good and hard but shes a marshmallow compared to her cats!!:shock:

So Im feeding my kitties raw steak every day to see if it will actually work. I started on Friday and so far Tanzies body feels harder and Lily feels a little harder (but Tanzie will eat more of the meat than Lily will).

Interesting; I never knew that about the raw steak! I wonder what it is about it thst promotes the hard body? Are they on an all raw-steak diet or is it an occasional feeding?

No, I couldnt make it their whole diet, it isnt a balanced meal. So I have been just giving them a bunch over their kibble every day (and then a little at night too). So far the kitten loves it and eats as much of it as possible and she already is starting to have a hard body!:shock: Lily isnt as enthusiastic about eating it but she still loves it so she is starting to change but not as much as Tanzie.

My sister (studying to be a nutritionalist) told me that it makes sense because protein makes muscle (I think thats what she said).
