Finn started his "professional" career at the Chickadee Cat Club Show in Fredericton, NB, on June 6, 2009.

He was super-stressed at the start of the day and wouldn't respond to any of the judges, but by noon (after his first taste of Heinz Chicken in Broth baby food) he was ready to go!! He won Best in Breed and Best in Color twice and made the finals in both of those rings - came up with 4th Best Alter and 5th Best Alter overall!!

He decided mid-afternoon that it would be a good idea to scream at me until I permitted him to get out of his cage and walk around the arena so that people could admire him - he was much happier greeting the crowds than being locked up!!
