Here is Minuet at 6 months old. She's has lovely color and ticking and quite a bit of coat, especially on her tail! She has been doing very well at shows.
The photo above was taken by a friend shortly before Minuet granded. The photo below was taken when she earned her DM title. The DM (Distinguished Merit) is awarded to female cats who have 5 or more offspring that earn the title of grand champion or grand premier. Minuet consistently had beautiful babies with outstanding personalities, and she was a fantastic mother. In 2011, Minne became a Supreme Grand Champion Alter in TICA.

Here is Minuet at 1 year and 3 months. She really enjoyed playing with the photographer's toys here. She has fun playing with judges' toys, too, and sometimes she'll actually give kisses!
This is Minuet at about 4 months old, at a Game Show Network press luncheon.
These photos were taken in February 2008.

Ruddy Somali female
Minuet didn't take very long to get her grand champion title - she was only 9 months old when she earned her title, which is unusual for Somali females. Minuet is also a Supreme Grand Champion Alter and a Regional Winner in TICA.
"Minnie" and I spent most of the 2007-2008 season going to cat shows, which Minnie loves. She purrs and makes biscuits for the judges and anyone else who will stop and say hello. She's a joy to show and a great Ambassador for the breed. I wish that all my cats could have so much fun showing off!
