FELINOLOGY

Felinology International Cat Shows — A TICA Chartered Club Presents Velvet Rebellion

Do you love cats? Then this is your kind of day out.

Felinology is building something we call the Fashion Trilogy: three shows, three seasons, three reasons to fall back in love with cat showing. Velvet Rebellion. The S/S Collection. Noir Renaissance. Each one dressed a little differently, all cut from the same cloth.

Our Marketplace is a proper curated line-up of small businesses making genuinely beautiful things for cats — handmade collars, artisan treats, one-off artwork, gifts you won't find on a supermarket shelf. Every stallholder is there because they love cats as much as you do, not because they had space going spare in a warehouse.

Bring the kids too. Our Cativity Zone is a dedicated space just for them, with crafts, games and the Felinology Breed Hunt, all included and free for under 12s. They can also join Gentle Paws, a short hands-on course run by Ellie's Animal Academy teaching them how to read a cat's mood and handle one gently. They'll come away with a certificate and a genuine understanding of what makes a cat happy, not just a nice afternoon.

Here's what makes us different. Judging runs TICA-style, right out in the open. Stand at the ring and watch a judge handle each cat up close, listen to them talk through exactly what they're looking for, and see the same cats come back round throughout the day in front of different judges. You'll learn more about coat, colour and temperament in one afternoon of watching and listening than in months of reading about it. Then go and find the breeder whose cat just caught your eye. They're right there, and they love talking about their cats almost as much as they love the cats themselves.

Whether you've been before or you're curious to see what it's all about, you'll find your place here. That's the whole point.

Come and see for yourself.
