Joseph is a member of a new club just for Juniors...NEKO Junior Achievers Cat Club.   This new club is designed for Juniors up to age 18 who are interested in showing cats/kittens, learning more about TICA and the cat fancy, and who have the drive and determination to become active, productive members of the cat fancy by becoming ring clerks and possibly going on to become a judge.  You can visit their website at:  www.ticaja.org

to learn more about this great new club.  If you know of a Junior that would be interested in becoming a NEKO Jr. Achiever...even if they have never set foot in a showhall before, please email me, Deborah, at scjaliaison.d_mordente@yahoo.com and  I'll be happy to talk with you more about the club and our goals for the Juniors.  I am the NEKO Jr. Achievers Liaison & Mentor & the TICA Juniors Chairperson & SC Junior Liaison.  If you think this is something your Junior or a Junior you know would be interested in I will be more than happy to send you an application.  Membership dues are just $15.00 per year, with renewals $5.00 per year.  They will receive a binder to keep all their papers and work sheets in, an ID Badge w/membership card, a Welcome Kit, and lots of encouragement and help not only from other mentors...but from the current Jr. members.  We have a great group of Juniors who are excited and very eager to help, not only online...but in the showhalls as well.  We accept members from all over the country...the world.
