ELIGIBILITY OF EXHIBITS TO ENTER THE SHOW
PEDIGREE SECTION: All Cats, Kittens and Neuters of breeds recognized by, and registered with
the GCCF, (except those registered on the Reference Register) are eligible for entry in the
competition. To be effective for entry all registration and/or transfers must have reached the GCCF
Office at least 21 days prior to the show. No cat or Kitten, entire or neutered, born after 19.10.71, with
one or both parents, grandparents or great-grand-parents unregistered shall be eligible for entry into
Open Classes. Cats which are not normally resident with their registered owner should be transferred
into the ownership of their keeper if they are to be shown. Exhibitors are reminded that in the event of
rejection, all exhibits in the same registered ownership may also be rejected and clearance may be
required for both households.
NON-PEDIGREE SECTION: All unregistered Cats, Kittens and Neuters of unknown or unregistered
Non-Pedigree parentage are eligible for entry in the Non-Pedigree Section. All Non-Pedigree cats
over nine months of age must be neutered.
GENERAL GUIDELINES ON ENTERING SHOWS
Where possible, always complete your show entry form from your GCCF registration document (i.e.
Registration or Transfer Certificate) for the cat that is to be exhibited, printing the details carefully
to avoid any misinterpretation of your handwriting.
If you have not received your registration document at the time of entry, complete the show entry
form with the details from the pedigree, giving the first choice of name if it is a non-prefix registration,
and put RAF (Registration Applied For) or TAF (Transfer Applied For), or both, in the Regd No
box. It is wise to enclose a stamped self-addressed acknowledgment postcard with all registration
and transfer applications, particularly for cats entered for shows, so that you know that the
application has been received by the GCCF.
Try to keep a copy of your entry form – then, when you receive the registration details and number,
check these against the entry form and notify the Show Manager(s) in writing of any differences in
the details as well as giving the registration number, if applicable. This may not be in time for the
printing of the Show Catalogue, but the Show Manager(s) should attach your letter to your entry form
which will save unnecessary notification of discrepancies when the show is checked. All Catalogue
errors are checked against the original entry form and any exhibitor’s letters are used for reference.
Show managements are permitted to accept corrections, at their own discretion, up to the close of
2
the show (on show day); such a change must not be a change of exhibit.
If you are entering several cats from your household and the registered owners (exhibitors) differ
within that household/family, check with the Show Manager(s) whether using one entry form is
acceptable or not and, if it is, indicate very clearly which exhibitor owns which cat, ensuring all
owners sign the entry form. It may be less confusing and more acceptable to the show Manager(s)
for each owner to use separate entry forms, but joint owners of an exhibit/exhibits should always use
the same form and both must sign.
STATUS OF ERRORS – WHAT TO EXPECT
MINOR ERRORS – These warrant a notification for your reference if the error occurs more than once
and it is apparent that registration details were available at the time of entry or before the date of the
Show. Continuous repetition of the same error after notification will be referred to the Executive
Committee.
Examples of minor errors include:
(a) spelling errors
(b) separation of cat’s names that should be one word, and vice versa
(c) administrative/breeder’s prefix omitted from, or partially incorrect name given for exhibit
(d) overseas title preceding the name of an exhibit, sire or dam etc
(e) full breed number known but not given
(f) Sire and Dam reversed or named incorrectly
(g) breeder joint when single, and vice versa
INCORRECT DATE OF BIRTH – This is usually classed as a minor error unless it affects an entry
into classes based on age groups when it could warrant disqualification of the exhibit from such
classes; but if the incorrect date of birth affects the age suitability as a whole, then the exhibit will be
disqualified from the Show.
N.B. AGE LIMITS:
Kittens – not less than 14 weeks and under 9 calendar months on date of show.
Adults – not less than 9 calendar months on date of Show.
INCORRECT NAME OF EXHIBIT/OWNER/BREEDER – If registration/transfer details were
obviously available at the time of entry or before the date of the Show, disqualification is inevitable.
The following discrepancies are those which usually arise.
EXHIBIT
Totally incorrect name
REGISTERED OWNER/
EXHIBITOR
Joint when they should be single and vice versa Declaration not
signed by registered owner(s);
N.B. The exhibitor(s) must be the registered owner(s) of the cat
and not necessarily the person who actually takes the cat to the
show
BREEDER
Totally incorrect name or names
N.B. The breeder of a cat is always the registered owner of the
dam on the date of the cat’s birth.
REGISTRATION/TRANSFER NOT RECEIVED BY GCCF 21 DAYS BEFORE THE DATE OF SHOW
– These entries will be disqualified. Remember the effective date of all registrations and transfers is
the first date of valid receipt by the GCCF, and if you enclose your own stamped addressed
acknowledgement card with your application form this will be stamped with the GCCF Office date of
receipt.
TRANSFER OF EXHIBIT FROM EXHIBITOR TO A NEW OWNER RECEIVED BY GCCF MORE
THAN 21 DAYS BEFORE THE DATE OF THE SHOW – Entries such as these will also be
disqualified as the exhibitor’s entry form becomes invalid.
INCORRECT or INELIGIBILITY OF CLASS ENTRY – These will be disqualified from the class
concerned – so always check with the Show Manager if in doubt which class to enter. If a breed
number is changed officially, it is important that you notify the Show Manager immediately. Exhibits
entered in the Grand class must have qualified on or before the published closing date of the show.
CAT REGISTERED ON THE REFERENCE REGISTER – No cat registered on this Register is
eligible to be shown and therefore these entries will be disqualified.
The only exception to this is when a new breed becomes recognized; and then, cats of the breed
may be show, even if they are registered on the Reference Register, as long as this was the only
3
reason for the Reference Registration.
Exhibitors may appeal against any disqualification resulting from show checking, giving their reasons.
The appeal will be referred to the Executive Committee if considered valid and, if not, a letter of
explanation will be sent to the exhibitor(s). The above advice however, is aimed to keep your show
entries trouble-free, not to mention the show checking.
ON ARRIVAL AT THE SHOW
Exhibits will be received at the entrance of the show hall from 9.00am until 10.45am on the morning
of the show. Exhibits must arrive at the show hall in a suitable, secure container (top opening
recommended) and must be accompanied by the owner or the owner’s agent. If a cat cannot be
removed from the carrier, it will not be vetted in or judged. (N.B. This recommendation relates to
the amendment to Section 4 Rule 6). Each exhibit will be examined by the Honorary Veterinary
Surgeons, who are authorized to exclude any exhibit they consider unfit. No exhibit may be penned
before being examined. Exhibitor’s envelopes will be issued at vetting in – THERE ARE NO
TALLIES.
All cats exhibited at shows held under GCCF rules must have a current vaccination certificate against
FIE, FVR and FCV (“cat flu”). The full course, or booster, in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations, must have been completed more than seven days before the show. The
certificate must have been issued by a veterinary practice/hospital and the last vaccination entry
signed by a Veterinary Surgeon or by a listed Veterinary Nurse under the direction of a Veterinary
Surgeon. Cats with an invalid vaccination certificate will be rejected under Section A. Cats
unaccompanied by a Vaccination certificate will also be rejected under Section A unless the exhibitor
undertakes to provide proof of vaccination, valid for that show, by sending the certificates to the
GCCF Office within seven days of the show. Failure to do so will lead to disqualification from the
show and the cat’s name will be placed on the veterinary rejection list until proof of vaccination is
received in the Office. N.B. A current certificate of vaccination is one which is not more than seven
days past the manufacturers recommended interval between boosters. Please note that
HOMEOPATHIC VACCINATION cannot be accepted for the purpose of vetting in. Exhibits must have
clean ears and coats free from pests. No pregnant or lactating queens, nor queens who have
kittened within 12 weeks before this show may be exhibited. No exhibit that has been declawed will
be accepted, neither will males which are either Monorchid or Cryptorchid.
Unfit exhibits must be removed by their owners and payment forfeited. If in the Veterinary Surgeon’s
opinion it is desirable, all other exhibits from the same cattery and the owners thereof shall be
debarred from attending the show. The Veterinary Surgeon’s decision is final.
Where an exhibit has been rejected or disqualified by a Veterinary Surgeon, the show managers shall
obtain the reasons and accordingly notify the GCCF within 48hrs of the show, ensuring that a copy of
the rejection form is forwarded to the exhibitors concerned. The procedure for veterinary clearance is
clearly stated in the GCCF Show Rules. However, exhibitors whose cats have been rejected at
shows should note the following points:
a)
When sending a Clearance Certificate to the GCCF Veterinary Officer,
please
include your copy of the rejection slip.
b)
Do not send certificates by recorded delivery as this can cause delays in receipt. If
acknowledgement of receipt is required, please enclose a stamped addressed postcard for
signature acknowledgment receipt.
c)
Exhibitors should not attend shows until they have received a letter accepting and
confirming clearance from the Veterinary Officer.
PRESENTATION AND BENCHING OF EXHIBITS
Take pride in presenting your exhibit. Be sure it is comfortable, warm and relaxed. Exhibitors must
provide each exhibit with a clean white blanket or blankets, (plain woven not cellular) of reasonable
size to lie on (white Vet-bed or like material may be used if preferred), a white food bowl and food, a
white water bowl with fresh water and a white sanitary tray, with the exhibit’s usual litter. Food
containers must be removed from the pen before judging commences at 11:00 am and can be
returned after 1.00pm. Water must be left in the pen for the duration of the show. Hot water bottles or
heat reflecting materials are the only heating devices allowed and must be concealed by the blanket.
None of the equipment in competition pens must bear any distinguishing marks. No written or printed
matter of any kind, other than official notices and award cards may be put onto competitive pens,
except with the permission of the show managers. “For Sale” notices are not allowed.
4
The use of grooming aids in the show hall, other than the use of a clean brush and comb or cloth is
prohibited. No powder or grooming substance may be left in the coat of exhibits. Exhibitors are
reminded that using products which change the appearance of the coat could lead to disqualification.
Such preparations are on open sale, often by stall holders, but we advise most strongly against their
use.
Exhibits received into the show hall cannot be removed, without the permission of the show
managers, prior to the closure of the show. Failure to observe this rule will lead to disqualification and
forfeit of any prize money and awards won. The show closes at 5.00pm or earlier at the show
manager’s discretion. There will be no early removal passes issued.
JUDGING AND JUDGES
Judges are empowered to withhold any prize, award or certificate in any class if the exhibits do not,
in their opinion, possess sufficient merit. Prizes will be awarded from the judge’s award slip and not
from any catalogue or prize card. A judge’’ decision is final. An exhibitor may not approach a judge,
nor enter into conversation with a judge, until that judge’s engagement is complete.
COUNTERSIGNING OF CERTIFICATES
In the event of a change of judge of an Open Class occurring after the closing date of the Show, and
provided that the exhibitor informs the Show Manager prior to judging, that a certificate has
previously been awarded by the replacement judge, the Show Managers shall appoint one other
judge who shall judge the cat and if the cat is considered worthy countersign the certificate which
shall then count towards Championship status.
If the replacement judge at the first show has also previously been booked for a subsequent show,
the closing date of which is before the date of the first show the actual entry has been made and
received before the date of the first show, then at the subsequent show this judge can be regarded
as the replacement judge for the purposes of requesting a countersignature.
When a cat which has been awarded a certificate at the Supreme Show is entered under the same
judge, for the equivalent certificate, during the following three months, then at one subsequent show
this judge can be regarded as a replacement for the purpose of requesting a countersignature.
CHAMPIONS AND PREMIERS
The title of Champion for cats and Premier for Neuters shall be granted to exhibits winning three
Challenge Certificates or Premier Certificates at three shows under separate Judges. A GCCF
Challenge/Premier Certificate will be offered for each cat/neuter Breed Class of the recognised
breeds with Championship status.
GRAND CHAMPIONS — GRAND PREMIERS
The title of Grand Champion will be granted to a cat winning three Grand Challenge Certificates at
three shows under three different judges. To compete in the Grand Champion Class a cat must be a
full Champion. A Champion cat may only be shown in its Grand Champion Class. Only one prize with

The title of Grand Premier shall be granted to neutered cats under the same rules and conditions as
those for Grand Champion.

The title of Imperial Grand Champion will be granted to a cat winning five Imperial Grand Champion
Challenge Certificates at five shows under five different Judges. To compete in the Imperial Grand
Champion Class, a cat must be a full Grand Champion. A Grand Champion cat may only be shown

awarded.

OCIPET CLASS Lots of us have them. Loveable layabouts, but maybe not perfect enough for the
Ocicat Breed Classes. We don’t mind if there is a chewed ear, or the spots have
gone to sleep, or they are no longer “athletic and powerful, graceful and lithe”.
Temperament, condition and presentation (well groomed?) are what count. The
winner of the Club Class will become the Club Champion Ocipet. And if they
win again next year they will become Club Grand Champion Ocipets. There is a
Class for Ocipet Kittens too.
NOTE:The status of the exhibit for entering restricted classes (i.e. Maiden, Limit etc shall be the cat’s status
on the date of entry, except where Section 2, Rule 15e regarding entry into Grand Classes applies.
The wins as a Kitten do not count when the exhibit is shown as an Adult or Neuter; the wins as an
Adult do not count when the exhibit is neutered and shown. Merit Awards do not count as wins for
entering restricted class.
