Joshy - The Original Cuddlesome Curly Cat
SHOWS
Joshy was generally a very happy chappy despite his inherited frown and he enjoyed going to cat shows and getting lots of cuddles! He went to cat shows as a pedigree cat initially but when he teethed his jaw went slightly out of alignment so that the bottom part stuck out more than the top part and he became what they call “undershot”, which meant that as a pedigree cat in the GCCF he did not win very much and did not do very well so we decided to try him as a Pedigree Pet where being happy counts a lot more! He did OK in TICA as a pedigree though and won their top title so he was officially called Supreme Grand Champion Alter Crinkles Reed. He did really well as a Pedigree Pet under his new show name and there he achieved the titles of Supreme Olympian Gold Imperial Grand Master Cat Sr Joshua Purrkins. He enjoyed his shows and especially the lots and lots of cuddles he got from his “Cuddle Aunts and Uncles”
Below are some of his show results & photos
Joshy won a Best in Show!!! At the Abyssinian Cat Association show
on 7th April 2013 he was the Best Pedigree Pet in the show!
Here he is in his “posh pen”!!
Joshy won an Olympian certificate! At the Gwynedd Cat Club show
in July 2013 he won his 3rd Bronze Olympian certificate.
Here he is at home afterwards with his Olympian and his
Best of Colour rosettes. It was also a VERY exciting day as he spent
the day being filmed for a TV taster with Angelos Epithemiou! Sadly this never made the small screen but it was fun doing it.
Joshy went to the Supreme Cat Show at the NEC! We stayed in a posh hotel for 2 nights as well. He did well as he was 2nd in a big class of 6 and it was the top class in the show, the UK Grand! He also got lots and lots and lots of cuddles and even more smiles from cuddle aunts and uncles and from visitors, We had a lovely day but he was soooo tired at the end of it. He also got his photo taken by a nice lady of him me sleeping off the weekend when we got home :-).
