Dear Cat Lovers,
The Malta Feline Guardians Club (MFGC) is proud to report that the 52nd and 53rd International Cat Show, held at SmartCity Malta, was an amazing success!! The fun packed weekend, was held on the 16th and 17th of May 2015, which not only included our International Cat Show, but also a very organized Dog Show, Bouncing Castles, Animators for kids, Food stands, and even stands for Animal Shelters collecting donations. Weather was very permitting, which lead to hundreds of people attending, enjoying the precious pets and asking information about our club.
The two day international show was judged by two all breed international judges. Mr Walter Baraldi (AB, WCF), joined us from Italy, while Ms. Brigitte Peppermans (AB, WCF), came from Belgium. It was not an easy task for the judges to chose the best cats in the show, however they handled the show very smoothly and were very impressed with the standard of our cats. The results for both shows were as follows:
