EXHIBITING. 



age or pedigree " unknown," any or all, as the case may be. 

 If the name of a cat be changed, or an old name re-assumed, 

 such cat must be again registered and identified before 

 exhibition in its altered name. 



2. A name which has been duly registered in accordance 

 with Rule i cannot be again accepted for registration of a cat 

 of the same breed, without the addition of a distinguishing 

 number, prefix, or affix, for a period of five years, calculated 

 from the first day of the year next after the one in which 

 the name was last registered ; but the name of a cat after 

 publication in "Our Cats" and the Stud Book, or which has 

 become eligible for free entry therein, cannot again be 

 assumed. 



N.13. The name of a cat that has become eligible for free 

 entry in the Stud Booh in any year shall not be changed after 

 the 3ist of December of that year.

 Stud Book on its publication, on payment of a fee of Five 

 Shillings, in addition to One Shilling for registration.

It will be seen that you are requested to 

 give more than one name, and it is very 

 desirable in the first instance to select an 

 uncommon one, which may be considered your 

 cat's exhibition title, but you will doubtless 

 have some short pet name for home use. A 

 prefix, probably the name of the town or 

 village in which you live, can be used to 

 specially identify your cat. For this an 

 extra charge is made. It is well to fill 

 in the pedigree as far as possible, and every 

 exhibitor should strive to obtain correct 

 particulars of date of birth and name of breeder 

 of 'the cat to be exhibited. It is a pity to 

 label your cat " unknown," if with a small 

 amount of trouble exact details can be ob- 

 tained. At any rate, it is important to 

 state the names of the two parents. The 

 age of kittens should be counted by months 

 that is, say, from the 2Oth to the 20th. 

 Having registered your cat, you receive a 

 notification of such registration, and whether 

 you are intending to exhibit or not it is 

 very necessary and advisable that your cat 

 should be duly registered in at least one of 

 the parent clubs. 



A separate fee is charged for each cat or 

 kitten in each class, and the amount must be 

 forwarded at the same time as the entry is 

 made. The following is a copy of the entry 

 form used at the Cat Club's Show at Brighton 

 in 1901, and I may mention that the fee for 

 registration has since been raised from 6d. 

 to is. :
