siamese cat showing

Question
Hi,

I have my first kitten, a siamese blue point.  Could you please let me know how I can learn what criteria a cat needs to meet to be of a "showing" quality?  

This is a male of 7 months, parents are champions.  I know absolutely nothing about this subject.  Thank you.

Answer
Hi

The best thing I can suggest is that you look at the standard of points issued below under different cat registeries and see how closely your cat meets the standard.  I am not sure of where in the world you are but I have given the three most popular registeries.

CFA (America)

TICA (mainly American but now worldwide)

GCCF (UK)
