Shows 2003-2004
Vicky

We began the 2003-2004 season in Gorredijk, Holland, showing Naru Victoria (Vicky) (Left) and Naru Star Ruby of Siam (Junie Moon). DeLook also came out of retirement (Right) for the 2003 FIFE World Show.

Junie Moon (At Left) Judge Maj - Britt Stein writes the critique of Naru Star Ruby of Siam (Junie Moon).  Ruby is just starting her show season and this was only her third show as an adult.  She received her 2nd CAC and needs one more to be a Dutch champion.

(At Right): Star Ruby proceeds to finals against the Best in Show Persian Male to determine the Best in Show Adult Persian/Exotic.  AND SHE WINS!!!  She is awarded the trophy for Best In Show Adult Persian/Exotic.

Junie wins it all.
Copenhagen, Denmark - FIFe World Show - November 1-2, 2003 - Show 2
DeLook

Delook had not been shown for nearly 2 years, taking time out to raise kittens. She decided to continue with her show career and she picked the biggie - The FIFe World Show - with 1400 cats in Copenhagen, Denmark. Judge Hanna Jensen from Sweden wrote that DeLook was excellent in all categories and was a very nice colourpoint girl. Delook had to compete against 13 other persian/exotics for a place in the final for World Winner. She did very well coming in third.

DeLook
Nieuwegein, The Netherlands - November 16, 2003 - Show 3
Junie Moon

(At Left): With a competition field of 600 cats and 52 Persian/Exotics, this was indeed a tough show with many beautiful felines. Alice proved too nervous and did not enjoy the competition, but June (Naru Star Ruby of Siam) rose to the occasion, as she received BEST SEAL POINT. After receiving Best Seal Point because the judge liked her cobby body, small ears and sweet face, June went on to the finals against two exotics where she was judged Best. She then went on to the finals against other long-haired winners and did not advance further. June did, however, pick up 120 points, received her certificate and is now a Dutch champion.

(At Right): A very compassionate judge Satu Hamalainen from Finland tries to comfort a very nervous Alice.

June (left) and Vicky (right) competed at the show in Sneek. Judge Lee Salassa from The Netherlands liked Vicky. Vicky got an EX1 certificate which is the best award a kitten can receive.

We had another good show, earning certificates and being called back in the stiff competition. Out of five seal points (four of ours) DeLook, June, Charlie and Vicky, DeLook (Left) emerged as Best Seal Point. Delook also got another certificate towards her European Champion title.

Judge Veikko Saarela from Finland liked Ruby (our Junie Moon) very much and made her 2nd Best Seal Point. She also got her first certificate towards becoming an International Champion.

Charlie (Right) was 3rd Best Seal Point, although the judge also liked him very much. Charlie was called back against an exotic. The judge said it was a tough decision, but he chose the exotic. Charlie is now a Dutch champion.

Vicky did well in her last show as a kitten, earning EX 1. She was the youngest seal point in the competition.
