Judges Course

Next Judges Course on 28th October 2008 till 6th November 2008

WCF licensed judges are educated by international rules. They have to follow several orders. In our list you will also find judges from cooperate associations, i.e. EGCA, which have been affiliated for judge education an examination according to WCF rules, as well as from other world organisation's, i.e. CFA or TICA, whose judges are welcome to our WCF shows.

WCF only recognizes examination for a complete hair category, no part examinations. These will not be accepted. Shows starting in 1998 will only have licensed judges as decided by the general assembly. The inviting clubs will check the license number on the keycard and the confirmed hair category. Only for the hair categories confirmed on the keycard the judge can be used. The hair categories are LH (long hair), SH (short hair), SLH (semi long hair), SOSH (Siam/Orient Short Hair) and AB (All breed)

Included in this aims and objectives are:

Promotion of the health, welfare and protection of all cats on an international basis and to raise public awareness of the positive aspects of the cat fancy.
Dissemination of information on cat related diseases and support of research into such matters.
To provide information and support regarding feline legislation.
To foster international co-operation within the cat fancy and to discuss mutually acceptable policies affecting the recognition of breeds, the breeding, showing and judging cats.

How we judge the cats.

WCF compare the cat with the standard for that particular breed. They are Excellent I or Excellent II or Excellent III or Very God or Good.

We give to one male and one female in each color and class a Title. For example only one Black adult female will have a CAC and one Black adult male . In blue color same thing and so on. Probably in this very first show you have cats only for CAC not for higher classes, because they need 3 CAC's to become Champion and to go to the second class of title which is CACIB and so on till they become World Champion.

Kittens have only Excellent one, or two or 3in each color or class ( 3/6 months old or 6 to 10 months old). I believe you know about that.

Each judge will chose from the cats he judged the best male, female, kitten, 3/6 months and 6/10 months , the best neuter .

Then from those nominated cats all the 3 judges will choose the Best in Show on Stage

At the end of show each day we have the Best in show chosen by all the judges on stage.
