This is a non-vetted cat show.  It is recommended that all entries be up to date on all immunizations.  Massachusetts requires that all cats over 12 weeks of age must be vaccinated for rabies.  You must be able to produce a rabies certificate for all entries and cats for sale.  Any cats showing evidence of fungus, ear mites, fleas, or a contagious disease will be removed from the show hall as well as any other cats from the same household, and all wins will be forfeited.  A Veterinarian will be on call to examine any such animals at the owner’s expense.  HHP adults must be neutered.  All claws, front and back, on all entries must be clipped prior to benching.

Pedigreed cats and household pets may be shown in TICA with a pending registration number.  Points may be claimed after the registration number is assigned, but only for the first show where the cat didn’t have a registration number in the catalogue.  Subsequent shows without a registration number will not be scored.  All Korats (kittens, cats, alters) must be TICA registered to be shown.
