Judging is a continuous format all day. All judges see all of the cats entered. Each judge hosts their own mini show. There is no overall best of the best.
Unlike dog shows, each breed is shown in 3 classes, kittens, championship, and premiership at different times. All the cats and kittens are required to be there all day, each day. Lots to see when you come enjoy the show.
