My thanks to Lesley & the committee for inviting me to judge at the club show again. It hardly seems like a year since I first judged at this show. I really like the lighting in the new venue and the penning sequence was a really helpful for a judge on his own, as my booked steward was unable to attend.
Open Classes:
Class 340 Asian Smoke or Burmilla Kitten
1st & BoB Mrs Bunting’s CHINATREE XCHARDI ANDERSON (72 43asq) M, 04-04-
A very well grown boy for his age. His muddy yellow eyes are medium in size but set well apart. The upper lids are a tad hooded, yet the lower lids are reasonably well rounded. His ears are good a size and shape for balance, being wide at the base with round tips and are set well apart on his head. He has a short but medium-wide wedge which tapers to a blunt muzzle. He has a level bite. His profile shows a skull of reasonable depth, a rounded brow, a nose break that could take more definition and a straight nose. Although his jaw finishes in the correct vertical plane to the end of his nose it would be enhanced by more depth to give fullness to his chin. His large body feels weighty and has very good muscle tone to it giving a masculine appearance. He has a strong chest and straight back. His limbs are in keeping with his body having correctly taller hind legs with oval paws. His tail balances and tapers well to a paint brush tip from a medium base. His colour could well have been darkened by the pristine silver base and suffered from tarnishing too, but for me it has a burnt toffee brown tone in a few too many in areas such as his head, down his back and there were hints of metallic tone in the areas surrounding his paw pads. I gave him the benefit of doubt on this occasion although I suspect his registration will eventually need changing to 72 43nsq as there are tell tale signs of the dilute modifier at work, but as with all Burmese colour restricted coats it will take time to be fully realised. He is evidently shaded and a mantle of colour descends well down his body, he has thumb prints to his ears, an M to his forehead, a scarab, spectacle lines, a broken necklace and a clear spine line which carries along his tail to a solid tip. He has a few smudges on his forelegs but does have solid hocks to his hind legs. His coat was well developed for his age feeling rather silky in texture and lying close to his body. He handled well for me but did not like to be out of his pen for too long.
Class 409a Lilac Burmese Kitten Male
1st Mrs Pointon’s AUREUS EL NINO 27c M 02-05-2009
A charming youngster and very well grown for his 4 months and 3 weeks and all important 2 days! He has medium sized eyes. They need more definition to the slant to the nose though the lower lids are quite well rounded. They are set well apart in his head. Face on he has a short wide wedge which tapers well to a broad blunt muzzle. He has a level bite. He has a gently rounded head and ears that are set very well apart. His ears have wide bases, rounded tips and balance his head very well at present. They have the correct profile tilt. In profile his skull has reasonably good depth. He has a gently rounded brow. He has a good nose break which I would prefer to be stronger for perfection, a straight nose line and a deep lower jaw which give his chin very good depth, it aligns to the same vertical plane as the end of his nose. His long body felt pleasingly weighty and had good muscle tone for his age. He has a strong chest and a straight back. His limbs are elegant. He has the correct stance and taller hind legs with neat spoon shaped paws. His tail balances to his shoulder. It tapers well from a medium thick base to a paint brush tip. His coat has a nice lilac tone with some pink casting developing nicely. It was also a typical kitten coat, acceptable in length for this stage, whilst being silky in texture for the most part it did however had a slight harsh feel just towards the based of his spine. He was shown in superb condition. He has a super temperament; was very happy and inquisitive chap on the day.

Face on she has a short wide wedge which tapers to a blunt muzzle. She has a level bite.

She has a very typical contour to her upper face – lovely butterfly wing effect. Her profile shows very good depth to her skull. She has good rounding to her brow. She has a well defined nose break and a straight nose line, whilst her lower jaw has good depth I would like a little more for absolute perfection her chin could be a tad fuller. It is correctly aligned to the end of her nose in a straight vertical plane. Her body has good weight for her size and is nicely balanced. She has a straight back and a strong chest. Her stance shows correctly taller hind legs which were dainty and elegant. She has neat oval paws. Her tail balances and tapers very well to a rounded end from a medium base. Her coat has a super fine texture and satin like feel to it. It is mid tone lilac with good pink casting. She was shown is excellent condition.

2nd Prof Bradley’s MAHARANI BELLE DE JOUR 27c F 31-01-2009
Another lovely girl but rather frightened by the show process. I had to judge her in the pen as she was just too upset to be out on the table or in my arms. She has large and lustrous eyes. They have good shape; well defined line in her upper lids which were more horizontal than slanting and very fully rounded lower lids. They are set well apart in her pleasing head and are Golden in colour. Face on she has a short wide wedge which tapers well to a blunt muzzle. She has a level bite. She has a gently rounded head and ears that are set very well apart. Her ears have wide bases, rounded tips and are suitably sized to balance her head. In profile her skull has reasonably good depth. She has a gently rounded brow. Her nose break could take more definition for perfection, a straight nose line and a reasonably deep lower jaw, that gave her a reasonably deep chin; it ends in the same vertical plane as her nose. Her medium sized body felt weighty and has nice muscle tone. She has a rounded chest and a straight back. Her limbs are dainty and elegant with taller hind legs. She has neat oval paws. Her tail was rather short to balance. It tapers well from a medium thick base to a paint brush tip. Her coat fits her like a glove and has super silk like texture. In colour it was a somewhat darker, blue-tone lilac. She was shown in superb condition. She was a very sweet girl when back in her pen and enjoyed a fuss.
3rd Dr Giles RAWEKE IN HGH DEFINITION 27c F 09-04-2009
The baby of the class has something rather appealing about her but needs a bit more time to settle down and balance out. She has large and lustrous eyes which were set very nicely apart. They have quite good shape; her upper lids were a little horizontal and lower lids were very fully rounded. They are golden yellow in colour. Face on she has a short wide wedge which tapers well to a blunt muzzle. She has a level bite. She has a gently rounded head and ears that are not set as far apart as I would like at present. Her ears have wide bases, rounded tips and are a trifle large to balance her head. In profile her skull has reasonably good depth. She has a gently rounded brow. She has a very good nose break, a straight nose line which is a trifle long for perfection currently and has acceptable depth to the lower jaw which rather left me wanting a deeper chin, it does end in the same vertical plane as her nose. Her body is a little long but felt weighty and has good muscle tone. She has a rounded chest and a straight back. Her limbs are dainty and have the correct stance with taller hind legs. She has dainty spoon shaped paws. Her tail balances well to her shoulder. It tapers well from a medium thick base to a paint brush tip. Her coat is quite short for her age and has a good satin like texture and feel to it. I found it to have a lovely pink toned lilac giving a pleasing pastel effect. She was shown in superb condition. She was very, very sweet and I will watch out for her in future as I suspect she had recently had a growth spurt and will look forward to seeing how she develops.

Her tail is just a fraction short to balance to the shoulder, it tapers well from a medium base to a paint brush tip. Her coat is very short and silky to the touch.

She has a gently rounded head and ears that are set well apart. Her ears have wide bases, they have rounded tips and balance her head. They also have the correct profile tilt. In profile her skull has reasonably good depth. She had a gently rounded brow. She has a very good nose break, a straight nose line and a reasonably deep lower jaw which could be deeper to add the desired fullness to her chin. Her medium sized body felt very weighty and had good muscle tone. She has a rounded chest and a straight back. Her limbs are elegant. She has the correct stance. She has dainty spoon shaped paws. Her tail just about balances to her shoulder. It tapers well from a rather thick base to a paint brush tip. Her coat was also quite short and has a lovely satin effect. It is mid toned chocolate with minimal yet dark contrast evident. She was shown in superb condition. She was a very sweet natured girl – who preferred to be in her pen today.

A really classy exhibit! She has large and lustrous eyes which have excellent definition to the upper lids and pleasing fullness to her lower lids they are also set very well. They had a super eye-liner effect which is accentuated by superb silvering. They are golden yellow in colour. Her mood only improved her expression! Face on she has a short wide wedge which tapers to a blunt muzzle and a level bite. She has lovely rounding between her ears which are set exceptionally well apart; they are nicely balanced; wide in the base and having rounded tips. She has a typical contour to her upper face. Her profile shows good depth to her skull. She has good rounding to her brow. She has a well defined nose break and a straight nose line, whilst her lower jaw has good depth her chin accordingly has good depth and presence. It is correctly aligned to the end of her nose in a straight vertical plane. Her head is well balanced and just screams BURMESE. Her body has good weight for her size and is nicely balanced. She has a straight back and strong chest. Her stance shows correctly taller hind legs which were dainty and elegant. She has attractive spoon shaped paws. Her tail balances and tapers very well to a rounded end from a medium base [FOR BBAC only: it felt slightly tensile towards the finally vertebrae]. Her coat is short and has a satin like feel to it. It is medium tone blue with superb silvering. She was shown is excellent condition. She was a little disturbed by the antics of some of her fellow exhibits but handled well enough. A real pleasure for this blue lover.

What a schmoozer! Reasonably large and lustrous eyes, upper lids tending to be held horizontally today and good rounding to lower lids, set well apart. Golden amber yellow in colour. He has a reasonably short wide wedge, it tapers quite well and has a level bite. Gentle rounding between ears that are a good size, balanced and are set well apart. He has a pleasing contour to his upper face. Skull has reasonable depth, a rounded brow, his nose break needs more definition and a straight nose line. His lower jaw needs more depth to give his chin better balance but was correctly set in an aligning vertical plane to the end of his nose. His long body has good weight and muscle tone, but I still feel he needs to fill out a bit more yet, he has a strong chest and straight back. His limbs are in proportion and have good stance with oval paws. His tail balances and tapers well to a paint brush finish. His coat is quite short and has good texture, it is deep cream in colour with powdering developing across his shoulders. A very sweet lad with a super attitude who handled really well and enjoyed the attention!
