from the exhibition if, in his opinion, it is suffering from any contagious or infectious disease, or has external
parasites, or has been treated or prepared for exhibition in contravention of the Rules and Regulation of the
C.A.T. Inc.
The Veterinary Surgeon’s decision, in this regard, is final.
Should the Veterinary Surgeon reject one of an exhibitor's cats for reasons of contagious or infectious
disease or evidence of external parasites, all the exhibitor's entries may be rejected at the discretion of the
Veterinary Surgeon.
