The Becky Cotter Memorial Trophy, established in 2001, memorializes the contributions to the Phoenix Feline Fanciers, and CFA, by Becky Cotter.

A charter member of Phoenix Feline Fanciers, Becky was a very successful Manx breeder and also an active exhibitor in the CFA Southwest Region, and throughout all of CFA's regions.

Becky is best remembered for GC, GP, NW Cottori Juliet, a stunning white Manx spay that became CFA's Best Cat in Premiership in 1997. Becky also served as the CFA Manx Breed Council Secretary from 1999 until 2000. She was always a gracious exhibitor and willing mentor. Her contributions to the cat fancy, and to the Manx breed, cannot be measured.

Becky was known for her "presence" -- that shone most brightly when she was enjoying a cat show with her friends.
