Five month old
Symphony pictured at the Brazos Valley Cat Club
show held in
Rosenberg, TX Dec.
3rd, 2005. Symphony's first kitten show was the
Eyes of Texas
show in Austin, TX. She
was called back to Carla Bizzell's Specialty
Ring and placed
8th Best Kitten. Symphony
was very slow to develop, so these were the only
shows
she attended as a
kitten. Many of the judges who saw her were
surprised to see a
a Blue Cream Smoke
baby, as this is not a widely seen color in
Smokes. I even
had one judge tell me in
Rosenberg that Symphony was not a Smoke.
"You can just let me
out of here NOW!"
Symphony awaits Don
Williams at the Coastwind Cat Club show held in
Beaumont, TX
Feb. 25-26th, 2006. She
was awarded all of her Winner's Ribbons, and
placed 10th Best
Cat in Rachel Anger's All
Breed Final! What a great beginning for
Symphony's show career!

describe Symphony's head to the spectators.
Symphony made Best
All Breed CH, Best Long Haired CH and
9th Best Cat in Rachel's
Final in Mesquite, TX. 5-7-06.
Symphony was awarded 2nd
Best of Breed in the Smoke division for Region
3's
2005-2006 Show Season and
Best Blue Cream Smoke. Even though there were
no other Blue Cream Smokes
for her to compete against, we are happy to
receive
these Regional Awards! Not
bad for a cat who wasn't even supposed to be a
Smoke!
Symphony will be taking a
short break from showing. Look for her Highness
again
sometime next Fall!
Symphony's quick temper has become almost
legendary, so
judges- you have
been forewarned!
*Update*
It wasn't easy, but
Symphony finally Granded in Mesquite, TX at the
National Maine
Coon Cat Club show on
May 12th, 2007! She went back the next day as a
GC and
placed in all 3
finals!

enough points to Grand!
We held Symphony's Grand
Party and Edie's Regional Winner Party at the

Show in Mandeville, LA on

sister, Rare Earth's Lemony Snickett for helping
out with the cake!
