Notts & Derbys Cat Club (23rd January 2010)

Mrs A Gregory - AV Foreign Imperial Class for Grand Premier Female

1st of 2, IMP GR PR
There were two beauties in this class and I had to split hairs when deciding placings. A truly gorgeous Tiffanie of excellent type and balance; she was very feminine with both style and elegance. The head formed a short wedge with a blunt finish to the muzzle and good width at the cheek bones. The chin was firm. The top of the head was slightly curved and the medium sized ears were set well apart. Her eyes were large and lustrous with the top line slanting towards the nose and the lower line well rounded. The colour was yellow and the expression slightly wicked (which I love!). Her body was of medium size, well muscled but elegant. The legs were slender and the paws oval. The tail was tapered and balanced well. Her coat quality was wonderful; she had a single coat that was fine and silky; it lay flat along the spine and down the sides so she really resembled a Bombay with fringes! It was virtually sound black and shone like satin. Excellent condition and temperament.

Mrs N Johnson - Asian (Tiffanie) Neuter; BOB Only

BOB
Pretty girl who was well behaved. Of pleasing type overall, she has a nicely rounded top of head, her tufted ears are perhaps just a little small & are set well apart, tilting forward in profile & following the shape of her upper face in front view. Good rounding to brow in profile, clearly defined break to fairly short nose with a bump along its length. Her nose tip lines up with her medium depth level chin & her bite is level although some incisors are missing. She has a short blunt muzzle of good width. Her eyes are pale yellow in colour & are expressive, showing desired slant to top line & nicely rounded lower line giving that typical "look". Her coat is of medium length & very good silky texture, showing just enough "flow" down flanks; there is some evidence of a ruff & breeches & she has a good plume to her tail. The black colour pales very slightly to the roots & there are a few scattered white hairs at the back of her neck & in the groin area. She is always a pleasure to handle & is a very nice example of the breed.
