Today at the Midlands Cat Club show in Limerick, our Labrys Warrior Princess (Xena) took Best In Show overall! There was some amazing competition so we were not only thrilled but very surprised.
And we didn’t have our camera. We only have phone pictures, so we’re hoping some other people took pics!

UPDATED! Here’s her critique by judge John Hansson
Orange Eyed White British Adult, Female;
1st CC & BOB. CALLAN & RUSSELL’S LABRYS WARRIOR PRINCESS.
18-02-09. Quite simply gorgeous, might still have a bit of growth & development to achieve but exactly where one would expect & hope she would be given her very young age. Beautiful head, rounded open expression, well filled & rounded on the cheeks, broad muzzle, brow rounds to short nose, very good chin & bite. Ears are small & well placed, creating a neat tidy appearance which fitted beautifully into the head shape. Eyes large well open round shape, bright vivid orange colour, gorgeous expression. Body still acquire the development that full maturity will no doubt bring, but is compact & cobby & so beautifully proportioned, excellent legs & paws, tail well balanced moderately heavy & very good medium length. Wonderful coat, short & dense with a superb degree of crispness which you just wanted to scrunch beneath your fingers. Her coat was clean sparkling beautifully prepared without the merest hint of any yellowing or staining, quite splendid. Her condition was quite superb & her temperament wonderfully confident yet incredibly gentle, a real quality find, later Best British to be followed by Best Overall in spite of very tough competition.

Xena once again took Best British Shorthair kitten at the Ulster Cat Club show.

Xena won Best British Kitten at the Cork Cat Club show! Her father, Ronnie Brooks’ Cassiobury Indiana Jones, took best British overall.

Today at the Erin Cat Club show in Lisburn, our Labrys Warrior Princess (Xena) took Best British Shorthair at 6 months old. We are so happy with how this little one has come on, and look forward to seeing how she does in the next few shows!
Here’s a pic of her taken at the show:
