A great day for sorrels thanks to two Pontaby babies who did us proud by wining their new titles, and also a good day for our blue girl Tabby who won her very first certificate!

GrPr Pontaby Pasticcio (Jasper) - Finally the boy got there, Jasper managed to win his 5th and final Imperial certificate. Much to the relief of his owner Heather and us as his breeders. We couldn't be more delighted, he has now become the very first cat of our prefix to gain an Imperial title!

Pontaby Isabella (Arwen) - Arwen did it again, at her third consecutive show she won the Premier Certificate, this time against 2 other lovely sorrel girls. Congratulations to her and her owner Margaret!

Nishalka Keria (Tabby) - At her first ever show as an adult Tabby did really well. She was very well behaved and deservedly won her Challenge Certificate and 'Best of Breed Blue Abyssinian Adult'. Only two more to go!



Supreme show
22-11-08

The best day we have ever had at the Supreme! Both One Shot and Honey were superstars and managed to win their open classes and the coverted Best of Breeds. It was a very exciting day!!

IGrCh One Shot from 'Afar (One Shot) - Finally, on his third try One Shot won his first UK Grand certificate. He behaved like a pro as usual and also won the Sorrel Best of Breed. Well done boy!

Ch Abychat Honeycomb (Honey) - A fantasic day for Honey, not only did she make us all very proud by winning her Grand certificate but she has created a little bit of history too. This win gains her the title of Grand Champion and makes her the very first fawn Abyssinian to win that title in the UK.

A good day was had by the three Pontaby kids entered in the show today but Jasper took most of the glory. Congratulations to the 'red boy' on winng his fourth Imperial certificate!!

GrPr Pontaby Pasticcio (Jasper) - Imperial Grand Premier certificate, Grand Premier certificate, Best of Breed and two firsts in side classes. Well done boy!

Pontaby Luciana (Mina) - Second place in her open class but she lost gracefully to another beautiful and very deserving usual girly. Mina enjoyed her day and kept us all entertained with her playful antics.

Pontaby Sognastella (Sonia) - Sonia was very fortunate to be placed third in a very competitive class of FIVE usual females in the Open, she also picked up two placings in her side classes.

Not a bad day for the Pontaby girls, they held their own in both open and side classes.

Pontaby Luciana (Mina) - Mina won first place in her open class but just lost out on the Best of Breed to her neighbour, a lovely usual boy. She also placed in all of her side classes, the smallest of which was 7 cats!

Pontaby Sognastella (Sonia) - Another second prize for Sonia in another VERY strong class of usual girls so we cant complain. She also got a first prize in one of her side classes.

An exciting day for us with four of our Pontaby babies entered in the show, in three different colours. Between them they won three certificates and three Best of Breed awards.

GrPr Pontaby Ferragosto (Gus) - Gus was his usual star self on the day and won his 3rd Imperial Grand certificate, the Reserve Grand Certificate and also the Best of Breed as well as a first in a side class!

Ch&Pr Pontaby Campanula (Cami) - Her first attempt at Grand wasn't sucessful, but Cami still did us proud by winning her PC and Best of Breed.

Pontaby Isabella (Arwen) - Arwen did well, and won her second Premier Certificate in a row and Best of Breed. She also got a first prize in one of her side classes.

Pontaby Maniago (Rowan) - Sadly Rowan wasn't as lucky as his sister Arwen and missed out on his PC, but he did manage to get a first place in one of his side classes.
