Votes: Yes No Abstain

KKÖ proposes the EMS code 12 33 for shell in the following BLH/BSH varieties for registration and show.

COLOUR / FARBE / COULEUR / EMS CODE	Remarks

SILVER SHELL POINTED	F, H
BLH/BSH n/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/j/o/p/q/r s 12 33

*BLH/BSH n/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/j/o/p/q/r y 01/02/03 12 33*

Coat colour H for 11 33 New

The back, flanks, head, ears and tail should be evenly tipped in the genetic color. Even tipping at 1133 is moreimportant than the length of tipping on each hair. The legs may show even tipping towards the paws. The legs must be free of tabby markings.

Coat color H for 12 33 New

A chinchilla/shell shows almost no base color in the tips of the hair, the hair is 1/8 or less tipped in the base color, so there is only very weak tipping on the face and no mask markings. The fur between the pads of the feet is not colored in the base color. The sole stripes should show little to no base color

Ratification:

A shell displays almost no pigmentation in the tips of the hair, a very faint tipping in the face, tail and legs. This leads to confusion when evaluated, due to missing point features, like the mask, which are not discernable.

This is also based upon the re-instatement for EMS-code 12 in all other BSH/BLH varieties.

It is recommended to pay 20euros per ring for each ring competition (if the show lasts for two days and one kitten, youth, or adult ring per day, the application fee will be 120 euros, and the application fee for six ring

competitions will be paid). The application fee for the Master Ring has doubled to 40 euros

- According to the FIFe rules, if there are more than 100 participating table judge cats and ring race cats, the judge has the right to refuse work. But if the judge agrees after consultation, it can be carried out

Summary: The above proposal, as one of the forms of enriching the FIFe show, is considered to increase the enthusiasm of participants in breeding and have more opportunities in a show. And find more fun and participation from the FIFe show. Theflexible application mechanism does not affect the normal performance of countries with too many registrations but instead brings more competitiveness to some developing countries. For judges, they can increase their income through rings, and for clubs, they can compensate for the cost of the show by increasing their income through rings. For participants, they canshowcase their cats through another path, especially since two high- quality cats in the same group may have the embarrassment of one being eliminated. Using rings can make up for the disappointment of breeders The ring does not affect the professionalism of FIFe but provides a more interesting gameplay that allows breeders to have more things to do while waiting for the table judge. The ring mainly displays the cat's personality state and serves as a promotion to the public, better showcasing its own beauty。
