Abby is a very good mother - and she is a very nice cat - always in  good mood, not complicated, very nicely caring for her kitten.

But she is very nervous in the car - and starts crying and breething in very stressed manner, and she almost gets a heart attac in the situation of a show. So I promised her, that she doesn't have to go.

Even when her litter got exposed on a show - and won Best Variety and Best in Show - I took Nina as a companion - and not Abby.

I think, if a cat cannot stand that situation, one shouldn't force it.

My other cats got used to it early - and so they are much more relaxed. Jethro for exmple seems to flirt with the judge and likes to show himself.
