Nile Show News
Dbl Gr Ch NILE ARGANTE — This Tawny son of Nat Sh Ch, CCCA Tpl Gr Ch & Dmd Dbl Gr Ch Nile Phantom Of Hope and Gr Ch Nile Red Pepper, was born in July 2010. Archie, as he is known, started his show career with a bang at the Federal kitten show in early February - he was Supreme Kitten out of nearly 150. Since then, he got a Best Gr 3 Kitten at the Canberra Royal, and again at the Siamese & SH show in Sydney, two rings of the Royal Goulburn show, and two rings of the Royal Easter show. He has found the going a bit tougher as a young cat, but still managed a Best Gr 3 Cat placing at the Canberra Birman show, and several top-5 placings since. At the Federal show in mid June, Archie was Best Gr 3 Cat in one ring, out of 49, and gained one 2nd place (out of 108) at the subsequent CCCA National show. He was then Supreme Exhibit (out of 237) at Western Districts in late July, becoming a "Grand" in the process.

Dbl Gr Ch NILE GHOST RIDER — is a
Cinnamon male born a week after Archie; he has the same sire while his dam
is
Dbl Gr Ch Osiris(V) Sioux City Sue. When it comes to showing, Ghostie has the
disadvantage of not being Tawny, and so he didn't start quite as well as
Archie. However, he did get a Best Gr 3 Male kitten at the Royal Goulburn show,
and a Best Gr 3 Male Cat at the Siamese Cat Society show in May, at which he
went on to be Supreme Gr 3 Exhibit out of over 80.
Ghostie
was also Best Gr 3 Cat in one ring at the Federal.

CCCA Ch & Sil Dbl Gr Ch Nile HOLLY GHOST — Holly is Ghostie's litter sister, but being Tawny, doesn't have his colour "disadvantage". She first got noticed at the Canberra Royal in February, where she was Best Gr 3 Kitten and Exhibit in two out of three rings. At the Siamese & SH show she was Best Gr 3 Kitten in one ring, and R/U to Supreme Kitten out of nearly 80. At the Goulburn Royal, Holly was Best Gr 3 Female Kitten in all three rings, and Best Gr 3 Exhibit out of 60-odd in one of them. As a cat, Holly got a Best Gr 3 Cat at the Canberra Birman show, and despite some tough opposition, did well at the Newcastle show in early June, where she was Best Gr 3 Cat in one ring and 4th all-breed cat (out of nearly 100) across the three rings. She was Best Gr 3 Female Cat out of 28 in one ring of the Federal show in June. At the St George show in late July, Holly was best Gr 3 Female Cat in two rings, and went on to be R/U to Best all-breed cat, out of over 100. The, at the Tamworth show in late August, she was Best Gr 3 Female cat in two rings and R/U in the other. At the Highlands show in early October, Holly was best Gr 3 Female Cat in two rings, and went on to be Best all-breed cat, out of nearly 90, as well as Supreme Gr 3 Exhibit out of over 50.
