Cavy Fitting & Showmanship

4-H Cloverbud members CAN participate in this Contest/Project/Show Area.

Fitting is the process of  selecting a particular cavy from a breed, feeding and caring for the cavy, and preparing the cavy prior to the contest, such as cleaning the coat in certain breeds, removing stains and trimming the toenails. Your animal should not have any diseases or external parasites, such as
mites or lice. Your general appearance, attitude and behavior is also included in fitting.
