Rowdy was the first cat of our breeding that we kept to show. My eight year old son (who looked six) showed his beloved Rowdy (he named him) to 16th Best South Central Alter in '88/89. When Rowdy got a little grumpy and the judges would call for a handler, they were very surprised when this little 8 year old would show up to "handle" the cat! He would grab him out and say "NO" then plop him on the table and walk off. Rowdy still loves his boy the best!
