Registration: With the exception of cats competing in the Preliminary New Breed, Advanced New Breed, and New Traits classes, registration with TICA is not required to compete. However, to be scored for TICA titles and annual awards, cats must be registered before their second show. Health: This is a non–vetted show. Any cat showing signs of illness, parasites or fungus will be escorted from the show hall, along with any cats owned, housed or augmented by the same exhibitor. Any cat or kitten from a house or cattery where there has been fungus or any infectious or contagious illness within 21 days prior to the opening date of the show is ineligible for entry and /or exhibition. All entries should be vaccinated against feline viral rhinotracheitis, calici and distemper (panleukopenia) at least two weeks prior to the show, and should test negative for feline leukemia and FIV (“feline AIDS”). Florida law requires any animal over the age of 4 months be vaccinated against rabies within the last 12 months (be prepared to show proof)! TICA show rules require all claws, front and back, be clipped prior to judging. Grooming spaces: These measure approximately 22 inches x 22 inches x 44 inches.

Proof of age (i.e. litter registration) must be presented on request to show committee. Two kittens or one cat are permitted in a single cage. Florida requires health certificates accompany any animal sold in the state. If you have kittens for sale, please contact the show managers for information about Florida State Law pertaining to kitten sales. Mystical Moon Cat Club and TICA will not be held liable if you do not abide by these laws. Benching: All exhibitors must check in at the door prior to benching. TICA rules allow no more than two kittens or one cat benched in a single cage. Each entry will be assigned a single cage, approx. 24"L X 22"W X 22 H".

Kittens: All kittens entered for competition must be at least four (4) and not more than eight (8) calendar months old on the day of the show. Kittens may be spayed or neutered. Household Pets: Household pets are very welcome at this show! Declawed Household Pets are OK at TICA shows.

HHP’s are judged in 10 divisions.
