Lotte will not judge the same cats in the ordinary classes. The plan is to choose cats in different "theme classes", for example, BIS Rex coat, BIS Rex ears, etc. as well as choose a BIS Rex without regard to variety.

There will be prizes for all the competing Rexes from both JYRAK, Rex & Sphynx Klubben, Royal Canin and from our Swedish member, May Loftunger-Klein (Kleloft's) - and the chairman invites all to a drink to celebrate the very first REX-SPECIAL in Denmark. (Big thanks to JYRAK!)

12/8/05: FIFe-info: On pages 54 and 55 of the EMS System Book the codes 01, 02 and 03 have been omitted in Group VIII (all pointed Rex varieties with white).

In addition to the 09 (unspecified amount of white) which is listed, the following should be added to each colour variety in Group VIII:
01 (Van), 02 (Harlequin) and 03 (bi-Colour).

These corrections will be made to the next edition of the EMS System.

2/8/05: In connection with JYRAK's show in Nyborg on the 3rd September this year, we have received this generous offer from Jyrak:

"You can book your Rex cats, just to participate in the REX special show, for a price of DKK 50 per cat. The cat(s) must in all respects comply with the normal rules for the show."

That means that all Rex cats - young or old, modern or old type, that are booked in to the Rex-Special will not get a certificate (unless booked in at the normal price), but will participate in the competition for Best Rex. The details on the competition will appear here soon.

Let us make use of this opportunity to show the flag and meet up in large numbers at this unique chance to present the breeds to a bigger public.

Final booking date: 10th August. Get your booking made and if the cat is to go ONLY in the Rex-Special, state that expicitly (then the price will be DKK 50/cat).

1/2/05: New website/FIP
FIP support - a newly established website.
It's purpose is to focus on giving moral support to frightened owners that have just come into contact with FIP - and to actively support FIP research! Dr. Diane Addie, who is one of the world's foremost researchers into FIP, and is employed at the University of Glasgow, is short of funds for, for example, the large amount of money needed to get a new freezer capable of temperatures down to minus 80 degrees C! She gets no public support, only private, and as is said "the pennies soon mount up", so do your best to help! For every one who has some small change to give, there is an email address, credit card, or PayPal link. ALL help via the website will further encourage Dr. Diane Addie in her work.

27/1/05: The Club's Annual General Meeting will be held on the 12th March, 2005 at 13:00 in Borgerforeningens Hus, Nørrevoldgade 63 in Nyborg. The Agenda is according to the Constitution.
