Cat shows are open to the general public (in the afternoons) and are a great way of viewing many different breeds in the fur. Giving you the opportunity to meet new people. Whilst coming away with a selection of cat food, litter and toys of all shapes and sizes. A list of GCCF shows can be found on http://www.gccfcats.org/clubsnshows.html and you may find one in your local area.
We have been fortunate to show our Ragdolls (who have been bred by other breeders) for the past 6 years and have met some lovely people and learnt a great deal about the breed as a whole. Below are some photographs of our ragdolls & their show success to-date. We look forward to seeing an Ardendolls ragdoll out on the showbench in the future.
