Details for YES! Presentation form

At Intermediate Level candidates will have gained experience in presenting their cat and can answer more searching questions about it and its breed etc as well as presenting their cat with more poise and confidence. This level will be more formal and the candidate will be expected to discuss their cat and its attributes without the need for as much prompting from the judge. During the presentation the candidate should outline their cat's shape, size, coat quality, colour and pattern. They should know their cat's best features as well as being able to suggest which areas could be better or closer to the Standard for their breed. Intermediate candidates will be competing against their peers at Presentations with the Judge awarding First, Second and Third places although every candidate will receive a critique on their performance. If a candidate’s presentation is exceptional, the judge may make a Special Merit Award which will be indicated on the critique and claimed from the administrators. The candidate should participate in at least FOUR presentations at Intermediate Level, gaining critiques from at least four different judges.
