We would like to invite you to stop by our show for a few hours. There's plenty to see:

• You can watch the cats being judged. Judging goes on continuously all day. There are several judges per day. Many of the judges talk to the crowd while they're judging -- they may tell you about the breed of cat they're currently judging, comment on the strong points of a particular cat, or even explain why they scored one cat higher than another.

• You can watch the judges present awards to the top 5 or 10 cats in each class. The judge presents each winning cat to the audience and awards it a beautiful rosette.

• You can wander among the exhibitors' area and view the cats when they aren't being judged. Often, the cats' owners are nearby and are happy to chat with you about their cats.

• You can browse our vendor area. Our many vendors carry a broad range of wares: cat toys, scratching posts, beds, grooming supplies, cat food, jewelry and artwork are just a few of the items you'll find.

• You can visit the cat rescue organization and see the cats they have brought for adoption. (We donate vendor spaces to local feline rescue organizations. Each year, many beautiful but homeless cats and kittens find permanent homes at our show.)

What are the show hours?

Important: if you are an exhibitor entered in the show, please see our show flyer for exhibitors' hours.

There is no specific time schedule for the breed and household pet judging; competitions for all classes go on throughout the day, all weekend long. So, whenever you visit, you should be able to see a broad variety of different breeds being judged, including household pets. (Note: We do break for lunch for about an hour each day.)

Also, throughout the day, you can see all the cats who aren't currently being judged as they relax with their owners, waiting for their next judging.

Is there a judging schedule?

There is no specific time schedule for the breed judging; competitions for all classes go on throughout the day, all weekend long. So, no matter what time you come, you should be able to see a broad variety of different breeds being judged. We have several judging rings which operate independently & simultaneously; each ring gets the various classes in a different order (to avoid conflicts between rings). Each cat will be judged by all the judges during the course of the day.

Also, throughout the day, you can see all the cats who aren't currently being judged as they relax with their owners, waiting for their next judging.
