Council Update for the Blh variant being able to be exhibited in the Bsh classes.

The Bi colour group in the BSH have 01, 02 & 03 of course. The BLH 03 variant which is the Shorthaired equivalent wasn’t able to be exhibited in the Bsh classes as the Blh used only 03.

Now, the variant shorthair cat can be exhibited in the BSH 01, 02 or 03 classes. Approved by a huge majority of Delegates in Saturday GCCF Council.

Do ensure your Blh variants are registered correctly using the correct appropriate Bsh bi colour code.

So. If you have a randomly patched cat with at least 2/3rd white and the patches are surrounded by white ? It’s Blh v 02.

If you have a very high white van patterned cat that conforms to the 01 Bsh Sop register as Blh v 01.

Sensible advice here
Lets add
- water bowls outside too

The sun is shining all over the UK at the moment, and not only are we enjoying it, but our feline friends are too!

But how do we keep them safe during this hot weather? Here are just a few tips! ⬇️

☀️ Put a fan on indoors to keep the air circulating
☀️ Provide lots of shady spots for them if they like going outside
☀️ Encourage them to stay indoors when the sun is at its warmest (usually between 10am and 3pm)
☀️ Keep their water bowl topped up with fresh water

More information can be seen on websites such as Cats Protection, Blue Cross and PDSA! 🔗

Gentle "reminder" to all our members and any one who has a cat!

The law comes into force June 10th, so DO get your cats microchipped.

Some of our members have found that if you have a breeding cattery, Vets have offered varying degrees of discounts on the costs, depending on how many cats.

So, do ask the question!

New legislation laid in Parliament today introducing mandatory cat microchipping

Pet owners !

Do be careful of buying or paying deposits to people who say they’re GCCF registered.

The are some Bsh kittens being advertised and or sold but if the breeder is saying they’re GCCF registered ? If they’re suspended in GCCF they can’t be GCCF registered.

Do check this listing for those who are suspected.
