Question

Answer
Hello

I love those doll faced cats.  They seem mch more normal.  Anyway, as to your question, there is nothing to stop you taking your cat to a show but in my opinion, I think it will be unlikely to be awarded any prizes as the doll faced cats are considered 'pet quality'.  However, there is no reason why you should not breed from him and provide those people that don't like the flat faced cats, with a cat more to their liking.
