Yes I came from Cat chat Gill, just a kitten then though.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #65 on:** March 27, 2007, 00:01:44 AM »

The members of Purrs are the Judges and if there is a tie a panel of jusges will decide .

The top cat will be judged by Colonel Beau from Cat Chat, our sister site and where most of us first met

ccmacey · « **Reply #64 on:** March 26, 2007, 23:54:57 PM »

So we get to vote on the pics? I though someone was judging them?

Uh oh Watch out Jaff & Mos, there's a humprey with a camera coming

Susanne (urbantigers) · « **Reply #57 on:** March 25, 2007, 20:01:56 PM »

I'm going to have to get busy with the camera! I've not been able to upload any to pc because of dud USB lead for a while so have got out of the habit of stalking the poor things with the camera but I've now got a universal card reader and some new camera batteries so there's no escaping me now

Tan · « **Reply #56 on:** March 25, 2007, 19:37:20 PM »

Simple solution .... use the other classes and not the age ones

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #55 on:** March 25, 2007, 18:51:40 PM »

Desley i have replied to you already and nothing is changing

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #54 on:** March 25, 2007, 18:47:45 PM »

Which is how having the age set for after the entry date makes no sense, for the reasons Dave posted - his cat will be younger than the category she will be then, so the pics are of younger cats.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #53 on:** March 25, 2007, 14:38:35 PM »

Very well put Helen

Yes you are right

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #52 on:** March 25, 2007, 14:28:12 PM »

Thanks Gill, I think I get it now! If you are entering the age categories the photograph entered must be:

i) Taken during a period when they were that age ie) in my case any photos of Tiggy aged 16 or over are acceptable for the purrfect pensioners class.

ii) The class entered must correspond with the age of the cat now/when they crossed to the Bridge

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #51 on:** March 25, 2007, 14:21:31 PM »

No not a daft question at all

In all age categories the age must be current so for Tiggy it would be age 18yrs and picture for an age category must be for that age.

Any other category, say gorgeous gingers, would be any age in a picture...........um there isnt a gorgeous ginger category , just ginger/red one

I think you have wonderful pics of 18yr old Tiggy so this shouldnt be a problem for you and I know you have loads of others but dont know age and there are so many categories to choose from.

So to clarify for Bridge cat owners , the age at which they passed to the Bridge would be their current age and thats the age needed in a pictuire for and age related category only. Bridge cats are being treated the same as any other cat, so the age classses and age in pictures for them apply in the same way.

I hope thats clear Helen but if not ask me another and I will try answer so it clear

DaveD · « **Reply #50 on:** March 25, 2007, 14:15:45 PM »

My query is much the same, but at the other end of the age range. Bramble will be a year old this April but most of my photos of her will have been taken before then. If I enter pics of her as a 1 year old she'll have an unfair advantage, as she still looks like a kitten.

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #49 on:** March 25, 2007, 14:08:35 PM »

Sorry for being a bit thick but I'm still a bit confused! If Tiggy was alive now she would still be 18 which is the same age she went to the Bridge so her being a Bridge babe isn't whats confusing me with the age thing.

Say the cat show had happened in January this year, she would have been 18 so therefore I would have entered her in the purrfect pensioners category - would the pic have to be of her when she was old enough to be in that category ie) one taken when she was 16 or over or can I enter any pic - say one taken when she was 5?

Thanks and sorry

Tan · « **Reply #48 on:** March 25, 2007, 12:39:19 PM »

I got at least 35 pics to go in so far

i been looking through em and kept saying ooo that can go in that class, OOO that is good for that class etc oh dear i fink bank manager want s me to stop looking

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #47 on:** March 24, 2007, 19:26:01 PM »

Gosh you are efficient

I just been trying to get all the pictures of the same cat in folders for each and keep finding wrong cats in there, so not even at stage of finding pictures lol, oh yes and when I moved em i ended up with loads of duplicats but cant tell which is which......................sighhhhhhhhhh

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #46 on:** March 24, 2007, 19:22:51 PM »

just looking at my photos now getting them into a folder ready. it is dam difficult

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #45 on:** March 24, 2007, 18:23:33 PM »

Ela, thats just plain daft sorry!

You cant vote for all cats so effects of a vote cant be wiped out.

This is a cat show and we need winners and if everyone on Purrs refuses like you to enter into the spirit oh the show and vote then we make no money for Minimopsical and we also have no fun.

If people dont vote the panel of judges is gonna have to work very hard, are you trying to scupper the Cat Show Ela?

Ela · « **Reply #44 on:** March 24, 2007, 09:57:04 AM »

I am afraid I personally will not be voting, there is no way I could pick out one cat above another. If I voted for one I would feel guilty and then give them all a vote therefore wiping out the effect of my vote.

The aim of this Cat Show is to raise loads of money

The aim is for it to be good fun, better than a general election

Indeed, a fun way to raise money and support for Minimopsical's care.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #42 on:** March 22, 2007, 17:37:00 PM »

The aim of this Cat Show is to raise loads of money, to do this we need loads of interest. Soooooooooo by having a week of canvassing before the voting begins this will hopefully bring on board as many of Purrs members as possible. It should be a manic week which leads straight into the voting. It is not compulsary and will be just good natured fun, if you do not want to be involved you dont have to but I bet the thread will have loads of posts and even more reads

The aim is for it to be good fun, better than a general election, and i am sure that owners who want votes for their cats will be quite imaginative, within the rules

You do not have one vote in each category you have 3 and that is why people can use one vote for their own cat. I did write that correctly in the rules didnt I?

I am sorry you do not like the age class rules but they are staying as written...................its an even playing field, everyone works to the same rules love em or hate em

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #41 on:** March 22, 2007, 17:22:22 PM »

Ah right - I would have just thought it woudl be the date of the competition, not 2 months later, as some cats will then be technically in the wrong category.
I just dont understand it - why would you want people to be able to go on about their cats before the competition, surely it should go off the picture they see for that category, nothing else? And the fact that we can have one vote in a category is wrong in my opinion, you shouldnt' be allowed to vote for your own cats.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #40 on:** March 22, 2007, 17:14:17 PM »

Havent had time to look ay my photos yet but I musttttttttttt NOT leave it till the last minute

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #39 on:** March 22, 2007, 17:13:07 PM »

I July is the date I decided on

.............it gives a slight leeway for people.

What do you want to know about the canvassing Desley, specific questions please cos I could right a book

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #38 on:** March 22, 2007, 16:58:35 PM »

gill, how come the age of the cats is decided on 1st July this year - seems odd with the photos being submitted from 1 May!! Surely it should be the day the comp starts? And what's the deal with canvassing??

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #37 on:** March 22, 2007, 16:07:50 PM »

rIGHT MADE A LIST OF THE CLASS' oops caps on - soz. Now just need to choose the photos

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #36 on:** March 22, 2007, 15:02:34 PM »

aw thats a shame dawn, couldnt you arrange something with gill / tan etc and forward pics before and they could submit them at the appropriate time

(just an idea)

Tan · « **Reply #35 on:** March 22, 2007, 14:54:40 PM »

Ha ha me too Gail. Got about 35 classes so far

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #34 on:** March 22, 2007, 14:39:21 PM »

OH My this is going to cost me a small fortune, good for Miniimposical though. Bad for me having to choose the photos to send in
