  1. My mom never been in Cat show before and she don't think she can make this one but she has question :

    When all cats are all in the show. What is their reaction when they met each others ( Cats ) ?

    Actually, I'm curious too because when I met other cats, I do sit down and stare at them and if they start to get so close to my mom or my dad, I will start fight if they do not move.

  4. @Mr.Puddy, I am embarrassed to tell you I have only been to one cat show and I don't remember! I think the kitties at these shows are used to being with other kitties, so they don't fight :)

    @Lupie, yep it should be pretty big!

    @Priscilla now I see I made a big goof! The woman who sent me this asked if I was posting the name of the breed under the photos and I said probably not, after what you said I am thinking I should have! This post will run again next week so I may change that. I don't know them all either! :)

    @Benny and Lily....lol....I see where you are coming from...you don't want kitties at a Dog Show either! lol

  7. M loves going to cat shows. To answer Mr. Puddy's question, you are right Caren. All of the kitties are quite used to be in their very large cages. Most of them you find quietly sleeping in weel-equipped, large wire cages. Most of them started out as kittens. They feel very calm there and are used to peeps coming by and some even poke their fingers in cages (not M though). M says there is no way I'd behave that good, cuz I don't like being in a cage. most of the cats are purebred. M likes to go because she gets to see different breeds and learn about them. Lots of venders come to and put toys out for sale - sometimes they are toys you don't see in the pet store. Then she comes home and loves me extra hard cuz I'm not a purebred - I'm just a moggie (whatever dat is).

  11. The cats and kittens have their own cages in the judges rings and are separated male - female. Most of these cats live in multiple cat houses and are used to other kitties. The judge removes a cat one at a time, disinfecting his/her hands and table with each and every cat.

  12. @The Monkeys, I was at one once I think, it was very interesting!

    @Cathy thanks so much for stopping by and for giving us that info! That is great to know!

    @Persian Cat, thanks a million! I should have listened to Cathy to begin with and included the breeds...I am going to change that now...thanks!

  13. @Cats-Goats-Quotes...I bet that was a blast! Fun seeing all of those kitties in one place!

    @Marg, I am doubting I can make it that weekend (I would LOVE to but not sure about that one)...there will be others coming up (I think in the Spring) and if I can make it I will most certainly take photos! Thanks for your interest! :)

    @Mario you have it EXACTLY RIGHT!!! Thanks so much for explaining it so well! I like the idea of there being toys there that we don't see everywhere. This one is a little far from me but maybe if they have one closer I can make it!

    @Old Kitty, the silver tabby and the Maine Coon are my absolute favorites of these! xoxo

  16. Check out the Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA) website to find cat show throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and Asia! The CFA is the world's largest registry of pedigreed cats, but they are devoted to all felines.

  18. Years ago I worked cat shows several times as a steward. I lined up the volunteer stewards and the association made a contribution to the Humane Society. We'd clean the habitats after each round of judging finished. Fascinating to see the many breeds represented!
