The Cat Fanciers’ Association (CFA) will bring the annual Daytona Beach Cat Show and Adoption Event to the Ocean Center in Daytona Beach from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 13, and Sunday, Sept. 14.
CFA and Cat Club of the Palm Beaches will host more than 100 cats competing for "Best Cat in Show." The event will also feature a cat costume contest, feline agility, and adoptable cats from local shelters. There will be five judging rings each day with judging throughout both days of kittens, cats in championship, premiership and the household pet class. There will also be a feline agility ring where you can watch fast cats run an agility course in record time.
Each year, the competition gets fiercer. Last year, Gemquest My Pet Dragon, aka Bailey, a bicolor Persian, took home the Highest Scoring Cat in Championship trophy. Judges Jacqui Bennett and Teresa Keiger noted the show featured some of the best-looking cats around the world. And in the costume contest? A sunflower-dressed Exotic short hair stole the spotlight in what could only be described as a clear winner situation.
Falling in love is practically guaranteed. Local rescues and members of CFA's rescue program will be on site with an adoption area. Attendees may leave with a new four-legged friend, possibly a show kitty for the Household pet class in CFA!
Don’t miss the popular cat costume contest, taking place between noon to 1 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Cheer on your favorite cat in costume and check out some of the finest in feline fashion. Arrive early to cast your vote and secure your seat.
