	Zawadi Bengals Have a Great Day Out

		Zawadi Loveable Rogue competed for the last time as a kitten in the Cambria Cat Club twenty-first championship show under GCCF rules on 11-October 2003. Rogue placed 3rd in his open class and received a first prize in the Bengal Cat Club side class and took seconds in the large Novice and Non-Breeder side classes. Raven and Larry are thrilled with his performance and are very proud of him. Also in attendance at the show was Rogue's friend, Zawadi Jubilee (a.k.a. Jenny) owned by our friends, Margaret and David Pollington. Jenny had an incredible day, competing in the adult neuter classes. She received three first prizes in her classes including a 1st place in her open class, but most importantly, she received the honour of the Best of Breed award and her very first Intermediate Certificate (I.C.)!!! Nice one, Jenny!

	The Loveable Rogue Wins Awards!

		Rogue competed in the GCCF sanctioned Bengal Cat Club show on 26-July 2003, where he placed in the top of the categories he competed in. His competition classes and rankings are as follows: Bengal Kittens Open Class (76 30) - Third place (eight competing) AV Non-Breeders Male - Second place (two competing) AV Novice - Fourth place (seven competing) AV 14-Weeks to 6-Months - Third place (eleven competing) Raven and Larry were both absolutely delighted with Rogue and the impressive results he achieved at the show. Rogue was competing against many of what are considered to be the very best Bengals in the UK. Most of his competitors are breeding queens and studs and professional show cats. There were 68-Bengals in attendance in total, so the show was a great success. Thanks to Connie Henderson of Zawadi Bengals for breeding beautiful Bengals to such a high standard; and congratulations to Rogue and all of the other show winners.


Larry Has a New Grandson....

	Today we had the pleasure of welcoming Larry's third grandchild into the world. "Joe George Sexton," son of Lisa and Roger Sexton was born at 11:38 am on 30-May 2003. He weighed in at 8 lbs. 10 ozs. and measured a very tall 24" (he obviously didn't get his size from his Grumps!)
