The 28th Annual International All Breed & Household Pet Cat Show was held recently at the Charles Chrin Community Center of Palmer Township. Approximately 150 cats were on hand.
The International Cat Association, recognizing over 50 breeds, was present for the competition for Regional and International Awards. The show, sanctioned by the TICA and hosted by the Christmas City Cat Club, is one of the largest sanctioned cat shows on the East Coast.
In addition to the purebred cats entered in the show there was also many beautiful household pets vying for the same Regional and International Awards.
One of the benefits of the show is the enjoyment of the owners to answer questions presented by the spectators. There is a mutual enjoyment of sharing the love of the breed and educating the guests in any way they can. And the love was palpable between human and feline alike.
The motto of the TICA is " Fabulous Felines, Fun and Friendship. And to be there was the "Cat's Meow."
