Our
Show Scene
|
Here's
our show curtains (with GC, RW, AW Midnite Moon AMT of Catiators). How to make a cat show cage a fun place to
stay for a cat, and to make it a good "backdrop" for them
too. It's easy to make and takes just a few minutes to set up.
Cat
shows are not a natural environment for a cat - too many people
and way too many cats! But the curtains allow them to think they
are one of just a few.

The prettiest kitten we've had lately is this nice lavender. He was 3rd Best of Breed Kitten at the 2014 CFA World Show, quite an accomplishment for a lavender!

Catiators Barnstormer
This lovely girl hasn't shown much (girls don't have much chance against the bigger boys) but her brothers have done her proud. Both are Grand Champions! One of her brothers even has a National winning son.

This lovely girl has had a lot of fun showing as a kitten. She was Best Ocicat Kitten at the CFA World Show, Red Version against really nice competition! She is out of one of Tink's first litters.

GC, RW, AW Midnite Moon AMT (Aircraft Maintenance Technician) of Catiators
Many thanks to Fran Volkman for seeing this guy in Robin and Maren Madigan's first litter and thinking of us! He is exactly what we look for in our silver program - great definition and deep, dark spots. But Tink is also a really nice package on his own! He's been very fun to show, making several BEST IN SHOW, as well as a number of shows where he made every final (top 10).
Tink is a 2012 REGIONAL WINNER (number 8 of top 25) and BEST Ocicat in CFA's Great Lakes region, as well as 2nd Best of Breed Nationally! What a great year for a beautiful cat. He's also earned the title of Agility Winner!
He did very well as a kitten and was the Cat Fancers' Association 2011 Second Best of Breed Kitten nationally and Best Ocicat Kitten in the Great Lakes Region. He very nearly made a Regional Win as well - he's 26th! (the top 25 add RW to their name). Tink had a great support committee - Sonja, Carolyn and Amanda all helped show him to his wins, which included many top ten Bests and even a Best Kitten in show!

GC, RW Catiators LTR-14 Meteor
Flash was our keeper in another litter we co-bred/own with Sonja Moscoffian of Blackwater Ocicats. He is by her GC Blackwater Flashlight of Catiators (now Jucha), out of our CH Catiators HMS Totem. Flash was an easy boy to show, and we are really proud of his success and that of his brothers. He is a 2011 Regional Winner and Best Ocicat in the Great Lakes region of the Cat Fanciers' Association, as well as 3rd Best of Breed Nationally ! Many thanks to Sonja for her help!
Flash is now retired from the show ring, but he's producing beautiful kittens!

| GC, SGC, RW Catiators Shameless of Midnite Moon
Moose was shown by Robin and Maren Madigan. This beautiful chocolate boy wasn't quite sure about showing initially, but Robin persisted and convinced him otherwise! He is now a The Cat Fanciers' Association Grand Champion, and 3rd Best of Breed Ocicat in the CFA Great Lakes Region!! He is also a 2011 Regional Winner and Supreme Grand Champion in the Great Lakes region of The International Cat Association.
We're really proud of how nicely Moose produced for Robin and Maren! They are showing one of Tink's brothers, a beautiful lavender. Tink is by GC, SGC, RW Catiators Shameless of Midnite Moon out of Auxarcs Passport to the Jungle. They have some other up and coming kittens that we hope will also be show winners!

| CH Catiators HMS Totem and CH Catiators Jackpot Air Classic
These pretty siblings have been shown as kittens. Totem has also been quite successful in agility! Jackpot was shown as an adult, but his color is simply not a popular one in CFA! Both he and Totem have produced beautiful kittens.

SGC, SGP, IW Catiators AirRace of Pirate's Lair, LA
Racer was shown by Laurie Patton in TICA. He is 2011 2nd Best Premiership in TICA, giving him an International Win as an alter as well! He was Best Premiership cat in the TICA Southeast Region. He enjoyed great success as a kitten, going best kitten in show more than once. He completed his adult championship show career and became a Supreme Grand Champion, International Winner, and best Ocicat in championship for the 2009-10 season in TICA! MANY thanks to Laurie for keeping Racer in such great condition and enjoying him so much. Racer now has his TICA Lifetime Achievement award!
