Show Rules: TICA show rules will be strictly enforced. By entering, exhibitors agree to abide by the decisions of the judges and show committee. Any person entering a cat or kitten in a TICA-sponsored show shall agree to abide by and uphold the Rules of this association. TICA Show Rules, registration information and forms may be requested from TICA, P.O. Box 2684, Harlingen, TX 78551 or 956-428-8046 or downloaded from TICA's website. All cats must be caged in the benching area and cannot be kept in strollers or carriers between rings. No cats are allowed to stay in the show hall overnight.
Some Rules of Note: With the exception of cats competing in the HHP kittens, Preliminary New Breed, Advanced New Breed, and New Traits classes, registration with TICA is not required to compete. However, no Kitten, Cat, or Alter may be entered in the show with a "registration pending", unless accompanied by documentation showing the cat is eligible for registration in TICA. TOES will prompt the exhibitor for this documentation. Points earned when entered without a registration number may be claimed and scored for TICA titles and Regional/International awards after they are registered in TICA. All cats must be registered by their second show.
Kittens: All kittens entered for competition must be between four (4) and eight (8) months old on the day of the show. No kitten under three (3) months of age will be allowed in the show hall (be prepared to show proof of age).
Household Pets: Household pets are very welcome at this show! Declawed Household Pets are OK at TICA shows. This is due to the number of HHPs that are rescue cats and may have already been declawed at the time of rescue. Household pets eight (8) months of age and older MUST be spayed or neutered. If you are not sure of the proper class or color of your cat, check out http://www.seregiontica.org/Colors/intro.htm or you may send a color photo of the cat to the entry clerk along with a description of the hair length on the tail. Measure if necessary. Your picture will be re- turned at check-in. You will also have an opportunity Saturday morning to have the senior judge make a final determination if the color / pattern is still in question.
Health Requirements: This is a non-vetted show. Cats showing signs of ear mites, fleas, fungus, or other illness will be escorted from the show hall, along with any other cats owned, housed, or agented by the same exhibitor. All entries should be immunized against feline rhinotracheitis, calici virus, and panleukopenia, and should test negative for feline leukemia and feline AIDS. Any feline from a house or cattery where there has been fungus or any infectious or contagious illness within twenty-one (21) days prior to the opening day of the show is ineligible for entry. An obviously pregnant or lactating cat will be disqualified. TICA show rules require all claws, front and back, be clipped prior to judging. Declawed cats are only allowed for entry pursuant to TICA Show Rule 23.5 (allowed for household pet or household pet kitten entries or if proof is submitted with entry that the declawing occurred prior to May 1, 2020, and that same cat was shown prior to the rule change on May 1, 2020).
