Come see dozens of pedigreed and household pet cats compete for top cat in different judging rings throughout the day. Meet Maine Coon Cats, Siberians, Persians, Siamese, Devon Rex, Egyptian Mau, Bengals and up to 20 other breeds! You can sit and watch cats on the judging table, or walk around and visit with the cats between judging. No matter what time you arrive youโ€™re bound to see your favorite breed being judged. Two cat shelters will be present with adoptable cats and many vendors with cat related wares will be there for your shopping pleasure.
