    Can I touch the cats at the show?

    No, we're sorry. The cats are being groomed for the judging rings when they are not in their cages. A lot of work has been involved in the bathing and combing of the cats in preparation for the show, and exhibitors would prefer that the cats not be touched by spectators. And if you watch the judging, you will notice that the judges wash their hands with a disinfectant after handling each cat to avoid accidentally passing germs from one cat to another.

    We ask that spectators not touch the cats without the owners permission.

    Can I take photos of the cats at the show?

    Yes, you may take photos at the show. However, please ask permission of the owner of the cat, especially if you will be close to the cat and using a flash with your camera.

    What is Feline Agility?

    It's new! It's exciting! And, OK, we'll admit it can also be pretty funny to watch, too! Agility is a pre-entered competition, open to any cat. The cats are put through their paces jumping through hoops, climbing over ladders, racing through tunnels, weaving through poles, etc. Read more about Feline Agility on their web site.
