Fur & Feather Shows in Wick & Thurso

[Bradcon]

Can anyone tell me if Caithness Ornithilogical Fur and Feather shows are going to be held in Dec/Jan this year???

As they haven't been held for the last couple of years.

It would be great to see them back up and running.

[orkneylass]

sounds terribly politically incorrect...or are the fur and feathers on living creatures????

I hope it is on this year, I have a trophy I need to return

I believe the fur and feather shows are on tomorrow (Saturday 12 Jan 08) at Quoybrae. I quite fancy taking my cats along. Can anyone tell me any information about it? I've looked online with much disappointment!

Any info appreciated.

Thanks
Debbie

as far as I am aware it is entry on the day for cats and dogs

[connieb19]

Has it been advertised anywhere? Yhis is the first I've heard about it.

[unicorn]

not sure connie, I got a schedule in for the rabbits section a couple of weeks ago but due to circumstances wont be going. I was going to show tia and hubby asked a friend he knew who is involved with it about cat entry and he said it was on the day.

[dragonfly]

anyone tell me if the dog show is a proper one only accepting pedigree's or would my crossbreed be accepted? (not wanting to start that row off again, just a genuine question)

[unicorn]

any dog can enter from what I have seen in previous years

[Debbie1984]

The fur and feather was advertised in the courier this week and last weeks groat (not today's). I'll rake it out and let you know times etc.

Thanks for responses so far.

Glad you got sent an entry form Unicorn. No-one seemed to bother about me, even though I have been showing my rabbits last year. I also used to be a regular competitor at this show. How lovely to be thought about. I'll just have to think they are scared of how good my bunnies are

[Bradcon]

Thata terrible Wellies, I thought you would have been sent one just like the rest of us.

If it was an open show you would think it would have been advertised with contact details for entry forms at least 2 weeks before the entries closed instead of just advertising it the week before with no contact details.
Perhaps it was entry by invitation only!
