Autumn and Handy
Autumn didn't have a really long show career but only because we had other cats we were showing and we can only handle so many cats at any one show. Autumn was shown in 2 shows in CFA for her Champion title. At the show where she received her Champion title, her she beat another Curl who had shown much more and had more points. Autumn is a silver patched and white.... or more commonly called calico and white. At the Glendale show we took her to, she took Best of Breed and Best of Color in 4 of 6 rings.

Handy's full name is Grand Champion Curl Essence The Right Hand of the Lord... we just call him "Handy" or "Handyman". We had so, SOO much fun showing Handy. He absolutely loved the attention from the judges as well as the spectators at the shows. We would sit him out on our grooming stand in front of our show cage and for people to see him and pet him. It's like he could tell they were admiring him. He looked like he was posing for them.

New Photos taken 6/21... |
I tried to take a video of Alina today while I was taking these stills... as you can see from these pictures, she was VERY into the toy. It was even cuter in the video but my computer won't open the videos I took today. I'll keep working on them but for now, I know you wanted some new pictures of your girl, so here you go.

Remember... you can enlarge the photos if you click on them.
A couple of these had a little motion blur in them, but since I don't have the video to post, I'm posting them anyway.

These little girls are just under 6 wks old in the pictures below. We brought out Nina (the brown tabby girl) and Alina (the color point girl) together for these pics because sometimes they just do better with a friend.
|
Alina was a little harder to shoot. You can see in the pictures below that she was all over the place. Finally, Mike had to pin her down so I could get a good shot of her face. Nina, on the other hand, was much easier. I tried to take some video of all the kittens too. The videos are harder to copy to my computer. I'll try to get them for you after I get all the stills posted.

These 3 little girls are 3 wks old in the photos below. They are super sweet and nice and plump. Autumn is obviously feeding these little girls well.

I took a number of pictures of these 3 girls because I was having so much trouble getting pictures of their faces. This is the first time they had been out of their cozy little home with mom so they were really curious about all the new smells. We are considering keeping either Zoya, the silver & white and/or Alina, the color point. We won't know whether these 2 girls will be show quality or not until they are close to 8-10 wks old and we can see the shape of the head and ears. Because I have so many pictures, I'm putting them in a slideshow. I wasn't happy with the still shots of Nina, the brown tabby so I took a video. Whenever she walked around, she had her face in the rug, but when I started rubbing and scratching her, she just plopped on her side and stretched to enjoy my touch. I had to put that in a video for you.
