We hope to see some of you at our stall at the show!

NaturallyTICA and Felinology TICA EW 2018 Regional Show
Roll up, Roll up, Ladies, Gents, Kids, Cats and Kittens!! Naturally Feline is proud to present the show of the 2018 Season taking place at the Elmbridge Xcel Leisure Centre in Walton-on-Thames on the 22 and 23 September 2018.
Naturally Feline is comprised of two great show teams – Felinology – Joanna and Emily Bell and Naturally TICA – Delsa and Phil Rudge. Both teams have huge experience running shows, with Naturally TICA celebrating its 10th Anniversary earlier this year, and are delighted to be hosting this culmination of the 2017/2018 TICA Show season.
We have 7 wonderful International Judges – Pascal Remy All Breed (France) Phillipa Holmes All Breed (UK) Katharina Krenn All Breed (Austria) Francesca Gagern All Breed (Austria) Alex Marinets All Breed (Canada), Valentine Tessens Speciality (Belgium) and our wonderful WCF Guest Judge Elena Mundre All Breed (Lithuania).
TICA encourages children to learn more about cat care and we will once again be having our Junior Exhibitors out displaying their cats to the judges and winning some fantastic prizes. We have also had word that a very sweet young lady will be bringing her new baby – recently adopted from Ace to show for the very first time and take part in our Junior Exhibitors ring.
This is a great opportunity to watch the judges in action and learn more about your favourite breeds, Siamese, Persian, Ragdoll, Maine Coon, Sphynx, Cornish and Devon Rex’s and perhaps meet some new breeds, such as the Peterbald, Lykoi, the Marguerite and many more.
This year we also have the return of the CATWALK – a shopping area for both you and your feline fur child. With over 20 vendors in our Catwalk you are sure to find something to delight yourself and your feline companion.
The highlight of the weekend with be our Best in Show competition – where the Best 3 Adults, Alters, Kittens, HHP Cats and HHP Kittens with be named after being judged over the course of the 2 days by all judges. With our Head Judge presenting the overall Best in Show from these top finalists. This will take place on Sunday afternoon.
Because sharing is caring, and we love to give a little something back. Naturally Feline will once again be running our tremendous “Feed the Ring” to help a local self-funded charity Ace Cat and Kitten Rescue based in Coulsden. Sue from ACE does some absolutely amazing work for fur babies in need. You will receive a 50% discount on the door from your entry price if you bring along some items for the charity such as cat food, toys, blankets, cat litter, or anything a cat or kitten might need.
This year we are also supporting Smokey Paws once again www.smokeypaws.co.uk – who raise mmuch-neededfunds to provide fire departments all over the United Kingdom with breathing apparatus to help cats and dogs when house fires occur.

This is a great day out for all animal lovers and families who want to visit an exhibition with a difference. The Naturally Feline Team look forward to welcoming you on the day.
I wish I could go!
And we’d love to meet you!
This sounds like a great cat persons day out, actually a great family day out too! I would love to meet some of those other cat breeds especially the Maine Coons .

Will you be able to make it to this one? 🙂
Alas I think the timing clashes with work, and travelling from Upper Much-Mousing, where I live, may be too far for Mrs H and her sherry fund. MOL
Ah what a shame! Would have loved to see you. 🙂
We are up north later this year too. Once in Manchester for the family pet show and once in Birmingham for the national pet show.
I shall try most definitely for one of those, maybe both, Birmingham is much nearer!
🙂 would be awesome to meet you. The one in Manchester allows ANYONE to bring ANY pet along. Last year we met people with cats, rabbits, rats and even a lizard!
I shall definitely try to get to one of those, probably NEC again. I have ticket. I am hoping Cathrine will come along too.

Marc, do you ever go to these shows and think to yourself……”I’ll take That one! That one! And That one!”? And wrap it up! I would be a kid in a candy story but I’m saying something for my old age…..Cheers,H
? it’s very difficult NOT to do that LOL
Gutted i cant go, and enter Onni into this one. Sadly it’s just too far away for us.
I hope everyine who does go (cat show entries, visitors & stall holders) have a fab time.
Would have been lovely to see you two. :’(. The club does have a deal with a hotel very close to the venue btw. X
We can’t leave the other cats. Cookie is on medication for her epilepsy. We don’t feel able to ask somebody to take care of so many cats, and give a tiny tablet to a cat too. xx
