Our First Cat Show

 The girls and I recently attended our first cat show.  As you can see, there were many, many cats.  (And a cat stroller for sale at the bottom of the picture.)   We saw lots of  breeds, including hairless ones, and very large Maine Coons, who look amazing like our Jumpy-cat.  The girls got to help brush a long-haired cat before it was shown and were given several winning ribbons.
The judging was fun and interesting to watch.  The judges would explain traits of different breeds - things like the length of a Siamese's body should be the same as the length of its tail. We loved seeing the kitten groups and also watched the best of show judging.  Each ring had a scratching post as part of it.  Some of the more lively competitors climbed right up the posts :)!

Definitely a fun afternoon
