But I would say judging was carry out fairly on each cat.
Simple concept : Best cat win!

We don't dispute that judging was carried out fairly. That's why when our cats were eliminated in certain rings, we accepted that, even though we were disappointed.

IMO, no matter how many times a person swap their cat, if the quality is not up to the required standard, I doubt the cat will win.[/QUOTE]

The issue at hand now was not the judging, but a matter of principle. Our cat lost to a "phantom" entry. To us, it's a "phantom" entry because it seemed to us that none of the judges had the correct entry. Yesterday noon, we received a call from a show committee member by the name of John, who called us for the name of our cat who won the 7th place in Ring 3. He told Amy that the slot was empty. Instead our 7th placed cat was listed on his list as best HHP for that ring. How could this be? I would think there would be an official list of winners. Why should an exhibitor be called up to confirm the placings?

When we asked him the name of the winner of the Highest Scoring HHP Category, he said it was Linnet when actually it was Koko. How come a committee member who was updating the results for the website not know about the new substituted entry if it was done properly as claimed by the show manager?
