Any cat showing signs of illness, parasites or fungus will be escorted from the show hall, along with any cats owned, housed or augmented by the same exhibitor. All entries should be vaccinated against feline viral rhinotracheitis, calici, distemper (panleukopenia) and and at least 21 days prior to the show, and should test negative for feline leukemia and FIV (“feline AIDS”).
