What was your impression, Dawn? I'm terribly prejudiced, of course, as I had the most wonderful Pura in the world! If you like large cats (and I do, witness Leia!), you might not care for them, but they are super smart, exceptionally friendly people oriented cats!

I did think they were small Eileen, but compact and solid little Cats. I loved the temperaments on the ones I had a good look at. I wouldnt choose one myself, but Id happily cuddle one all day. :)

I went and had a lovely day. Really enjoyed seeing lots of beautiful cats.

Good job I went on my own as there was no room in the car for anyone else on the way back. :-D

Bought a massive climbing/scratching tower (still in the car as I will need help getting it out and it was too dark anyway when I got home) - not a brill price compared to the zooplus ones, but it was already in one piece so I don't have to worry about putting it together. Also bought 2 other smaller ones.

Bought zillions of toys, lots of bits and bobs from the CPL stalls and 2 litter trays - one of those rolling ones to try, although I fear it will turn out to be just a gimmick. I really wanted a litter quitter but didn't see one.
I also bought 2 new beds and a small roll of vetbed.

Oh and a couple of cards from one artist and a couple of stunning framed prints from another.

The food sacks and litter were too heavy for me to get to my car - I hope I didn't miss out too much by not getting them. (Pity they were not hiring out trolleys!)

Now all I need are my new furry friends!:D

Only a couple of things from one of the CP stalls. I wasn't very impressed at all with the show to be honest. I wanted a RC rucksac but left it till the last thing, by which point they'd got none left! :roll: I think the lady on the stand was most put-out that I didn't actually buy a bag of RC once I knew there was no free bag coming wih it! :shock: I've never been to a cat show before & had only got crufts to compare it too as an idea of what it might be like. I knew it wouldn't be on that scale, but was quite disapointed at how small the show was & not many stands to go look around, although the cats were good. You were just leaving as I saw you. We were just going back in as you were coming out.

Wow sounds like you are all set and then some! I had to cover my cats eyes as I was reading in case they got jealous :-D :lol:

Thanks for that link. I am looking for a big scratching post so if I don't get the one I've bid for on ebay I might get one from them.

I was disappointed compared to last years show. It seemed smaller and there weren't many freebies being given out lol. I dont think I'll go to next years, maybe give it a break for a few years and see if it omproves.

Im pleased you said that Smudgely, I was very dissappointed but didnt want to say so! Thats why we left so soon, I was very bored very quickly. I dont remember it being so dull a few years ago when I went last. I coudnt stand the advertisments for breeders and their Cats, some of these people were so big headed Im surprised they got through the hall doors! :shock: Putting the names over the Cats cages, HATED that, stunk of cheating, although I appreciate it probably wasnt, just hated the whole "look at my Cat" thing. I DID like the pens people had created for the competition, a lot of work will have gone into some of those, but even so, some of those the poor Cats couldnt move in they were so full of everything NOT cat!;)

I also saw a couple of people taking "orders" for kittens, one woman writing down this and that and showing people pictures of kittens she had at home waiting for new owners. I expressed my distaste at this.:-D :roll: she didnt seeem to agree, but the person she was talking to did and said she would prefer to look at different breeders before making her decision :D DAMN it!! she lost her sale!!

One Cat that did take my eye was a Bi-colour oriental, it may just have been the markings on this black and white cat, but it was very striking indeed.

I saw some beautiful cats there. The security seemed a bit naff as there were people coming in & out with cats & I didn't notice passes etc being shown for the cats, but maybe there was :? The cats were on the whole unsupervised in the pens, which I didn't like. I could have opened any of the pens & put one in my bag. :shock:

Do you know Kelly, when I took Rowan to the show the breeder had entered him in, I wanted to put a padlock on his pen! :-D :shock: I felt like you, anyone could of taken them.

I actually said that "God God there's no locks on the cages. Totaly floored me. If I showed I would set up permant guard outside the cage then follow the judge who took them out.
