TopCat Titles
- A new exhibition class opens only after the previous one has been closed.
- Titles are closed in stages, upon meeting all mandatory requirements for the current title.
- Higher scores for the next title, obtained before the conditions for the current title are met, are not counted.
ALL ACHIEVEMENTS REMAIN VALID THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SHOW CAREER WITHIN THE CORRESPONDING AGE GROUP.
For example: Any placement (1st-10th) in a ring earned during the acquisition of CAC, CACIB, or CAGCIB titles will be counted towards closing the Grand International Champion title.
Example 2: If, during the acquisition of the CAC, CACIB, CAGCIB, or CACE titles, the cat earned BOB, BOS, or 1st-2nd place in the Adult Ring, any of these awards grant the right to later obtain the Continental Champion title.
*An animal neutered at some stage of its show career continues to earn titles from the last one obtained, rather than starting over.
For example, if the titles of Champion and International Champion were obtained, followed by neutering, the next show entry can be for the title of Grand International Premior (CAGPIB). All previously earned achievements and awards (BOB, BOS, ring placements) are retained.
