Show entry & tickets
Enter a cat to compete at our next FIFe show, or get tickets to come and watch.
Our Houston show has ended. Thank you to everyone who took part! The date for our next show will be announced soon. Until then, you can send this form to register your interest, and we'll contact you when entries and tickets open.
Before you enter
Please read these rules before entering. It's your responsibility to make sure your cats meet the veterinary and entry requirements.
- Bring your own cageBring your own show cage or cages, and trim your cat's nails before the show.
- At least 4 months oldCats must be at least 4 months old on the day of the show.
- VaccinationsCore vaccines and rabies are required (rabies by Texas state law). Valid vaccines don't need restarting; an expired booster must be given at least 15 days before the show.
- Vet checksA vet checks cats at random during check-in and throughout the day. Bring your cat's shot records. Breeder-given shots are fine if the records show the same details a vet's would.
- Signs of illnessIf the vet finds signs of illness, that cat and all other cats from the same exhibitor must leave the show hall.
- White catsWhite cats need a vet certificate stating they are not deaf.
- Other registries welcomePedigrees from TICA, CFA, WCF and other recognized registries are accepted under FIFe's Open Doors policy. Send a copy of each cat's 3-generation pedigree with your entry. House cats are welcome too.
