Hello friends,
I have 2 cats and I thoght that it would be nice to enter one of them in a cat show. I live in N.C. so I need to find a show in that certain state. My cats’ names are “Sheba” and “China”. They are both female cats. : ) I thoght it would be fun to enter “Sheba” in a cat show. She is a calico and the other cat is an american shorthair… Do you know of any cat shows around my area?
Thanks,
Abey B.
There is one in Raleigh, at the bottom of the list.
