**TICKETING SYSTEM BACK-LOG:

The office staff is working as diligently as they can to process the backlog of open tickets. Please don't send duplicate emails for the same issue (it only adds to the tickets). We're sorry for the delay and appreciate your patience.
If you are waiting on a registration for a cat that you have shown, please put a note that the cat has been shown at X show(s). As long as the paperwork is in the office (and you can prove you sent an email) before the 2nd, 3rd, etc... show, you will get the points if you then let the office know.
