Yes, there are loads, all over Britain run by local clubs, but I'll leave it to a rodent/ferret person to give you the information, cos I've never shown either of those!

For ferret shows, take a quick look on the Ashfield Ferret Club and the British Ferret Club website.

National Fancy Rat Society

North of England Rat Society

Fancy Rat Enthusiasts Club

You just missed a huge small animal show in Reading (London Champs). There were rats, mice, hamsters, cavies, rabbits, and various shops and displays.

Next big one that I can think of like that is the Bradford Champs in Harrogate in January (I think).

Don't know about mice, but we went to a local rat show just before Christmas and they had a 'pet section' for pets to be judged (I presumed) on friendliness and condition in a similar way that non-pedigree cats are judged at cat shows.
