We are supporting Lincs Arks by collecting donations of non-perishable food, cat litter and toys for them, there will be a collection bin at the entrance:
Lincs Ark Cat Rescue, South Lincs: Lincs Ark is a small charity operating in the South Lincolnshire area to rescue and rehome cats, kittens and rabbits. Everyone involved with the group is an unpaid volunteer, with a love of animals, and each year over 170 cats, kittens and rabbits are helped.
What will you see?
There will be in excess of 130 pedigree and non-pedigree cats, competing for titles and prizes across 5 judging rings. Each cat is in their own safe “house” and we encourage you to look, but, not touch please. If you’d like to take photos please ask the owners and turn off your flash. Also, if you’d like to stroke anyone’s cat, ask first.
You can see the judging in progress and please feel free to ask any members of the team if you would like to know more about what’s happening. You’ll discover that we’re quite a nice bunch really, if a bit obsessed by our cats.
What does judging mean?
Each cat is presented to the judges, anonymously. This means the judge will look at each cat and assess it according to the breed standard. Each breed has its own “Standard Of Points” and the judges are looking to ensure each cat meets those standards, for their own breed. Non-pedigree, household pet cats, are judged on presentation and temperament. If a cat is deemed good enough, they can then go through to a final, which is where they earn titles, regional and international points.
Cat Agility:
The Catgility project! We will have a small obstacle course to test the cats agility skills. Come along and support them while their owners try to persuade them to complete the course!
Meet the Breeds:
We will be presenting multiple breeds over the weekend in our dedicated Meet the Breeds area. Interact with the cats and chat to owners and breeders.
Food:
The onsite restaurant will be open all day for hot & cold drinks and food
