Availability
Does your club have a date set for its show? If it falls within 50 miles of your last show and is on your regular, traditional date, you don’t need to go through the show scheduler.
If you are planning a new show date, you will need to obtain permission. We have a show scheduling committee available to help you find a suitable date for your club. They will also consult with your Regional Director to get their input. It can be challenging to find an affordable venue that is also available on your preferred date. It is important when you discover the venue you desire that you verify its availability for the date.
Sufficient Space For Your Cat Show
Space is a premium, but if you can get it, there are great ways to use it. An extra ring setup is very helpful for many purposes, such as crowd-pleasing events like educational topics, meet the breeds, cat costume contest, “catwalk” presentation, or any other extra features you can think of. Having additional space means we can have numerous vendors, rescues, and breed booths, adding valuable content to the show for our guests.

The Cat Fancy Alphabet
\"The Cat Fancy Alphabet\" is a new feature in Cat Talk. It highlights various terms and aspects of the cat fancy, educating fanciers new and old about our hobby.
UP CLOSE AND Purr-sonal
If there is one person, or even just a name, that anyone in CFA (Cat Fancier Association) knows, it would have to be Allene Tartaglia. It might be from her involvement with most aspects of the operations of CFA in her position of executive director. Or perhaps from her deep involvement with both the CFA Annual meeting and/or the International Show. Cat Talk thought it was time to learn more about one of the most key people in CFA.
Vision and Hearing Dysfunctions in Senior Cats
Just as people are challenged by having deficiencies with vision and hearing over time, so are senior cats. In senior cats, pet owners may notice their cats are no longer responding to them in the same way; however, it may be difficult to figure out.
Senior Cats and House Soiling
Why is my cat no longer using its litter box? Cat soiling in the house is one of the most talked about issues for pet owners.
Nutrition for Our Senior Cats
From the time they are born, our kittens receive a tremendous amount of care, with diet being at the core of their growth and development.

Alternative Arthritis Treatments for Cats
Just like humans, cats can experience arthritis. About 90% of cats over the age of 10 years experience osteoarthritis (OA) in at least one joint.1 It is a complex condition involving inflammation and degeneration of one or more joints and is sometimes referred to as degenerative joint disease (DJD). Cats with OA experience pain and inflammation in various joints that interfere with daily activities.
