Show Rules: TICA show rules will be strictly enforced. By entering, exhibitors agree to abide by the decisions of the judges and show committee. Official show rules, registration information and forms may be obtained from TICA, P.O. Box 2684, Harlingen, TX 78551 or viewed on their website at www.tica.org.

Payment: By entering the show, you agree to pay all fees whether you attend the show or not. A $25 charge will be assessed for any returned checks. Entry fees are non-refundable. On-line entries must be paid within 24 hours from date of entry. A $25 charge will be assessed for all entry payments paid at door unless prior arrangements are made with the show manager. Only cash will be accepted if people pay at the door - no checks.

Registration: With the exception of cats competing in the Preliminary New Breed, Advanced New Breed, and New Traits classes, registration with TICA is not necessary to compete in the cat's first show. However, to be scored for TICA titles and regional / International awards, all cats must be registered by their second show. Please contact TICA for registration forms and information (TICA, P. O. Box 2684, Harlingen, TX 78551).

Health: This is a non–vetted show. 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”). TICA show rules require all claws, front and back, be clipped prior to judging.

Grooming spaces: These measure 22 inches x 22 inches x 44 inches.

For Sale: Sales cages will be available to exhibitors. TICA rules allow no more than two kittens or one cat benched in a single cage. No kitten under 3 months of age will be allowed in the showhall (be prepared to show proof of age). NO KITTENS OR CATS MAY BE CONFINED TO CARRIERS, EITHER DISPLAYED OR UNDER CAGES, DURING SHOW HOURS. Any person disregarding these rules will be asked to leave the show.

Kittens: All kittens entered for competition must be at least four (4) and not more than eight (8) calendar months old on the day of the show. Kittens may be spayed or neutered.

Household Pets: Household pets are very welcome at this show! Declawed Household Pets are OK at TICA shows. This is due to the number of HHPs that are rescue cats and may have already been declawed at the time of rescue. Household pets over 8 months of age MUST be spayed or neutered.

Supplies: Cat litter will be available, but please bring your own litter pan and food and water dishes!

Benching: Each entry will be assigned a single cage, approx. 24" X 26" X 24". The two sides, back, and top of the cage must be covered. For the comfort of your cat(s), please bring something for the bottom of the cage too!

Clerks: If you would like to assist with clerking duties, indicate on the summary form. Clerks will be paid $35 each day clerked. Clerks also receive lunch and a fully marked catalog.

Awards: Rosettes will be awarded in accordance with TICA show rules.
