Come visit over 160 purebred and household pet cats compete for top cat in several different judging rings throughout the day. Meet Maine Coon Cats, Persians, Siamese, Devon Rex, Norwegian Forest Cats, Ragdolls, Bengals, and over 30 other breeds!
Unlike dog shows, each breed is shown in 3 classes, kittens, championship, and premiership at different times. All the cats and kittens are required to be there all day, each day. Lots to see!
The costume contest is on at lunchtime, not to be missed.
You can sit and watch cats on the judging table, or walk around and visit with the cats between judging. Each ring is a complete show, so it's like 5 shows on Saturday and 5 on Sunday at once. No matter what time you arrive you’re bound to see your favorite breed being judged.

* 𝗔𝗱𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: This year the Cincinnati Cat Club is hosting a judge from war torn Ukraine, Elena Podprugina. She will be judging cats on November 30th, 2025 at our annual show at the Butler County Fairgrounds. This is her first time to the USA. We asked how we could help and below is her reply. In my city Kramatorsk, there is a shelter – the Charitable Foundation “Friend.” It has been officially registered since 2008. This shelter is for both cats and dogs. Currently, volunteers and soldiers bring abandoned cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies to this shelter from towns and villages that are directly in the war zone. The animals are emaciated, and some have injuries. Additionally, animals that are left alone after the death of their owners also end up here. At the shelter, these animals receive medical treatment and are rehomed. Animals that cannot be adopted, are later sent to shelters located in other regions of Ukraine (far from the front line). Currently, there is active fighting in our region, and animals keep arriving, so the costs for food and veterinary clinics are very high. I know that volunteers and volunteer organizations from Ukraine and Europe help them. They helped especially well in the first year of the war, but now less so. They will be glad for any help you can provide. Best Regards, Elena
All donations from our 2025 Cat Show Fundraiser will be sent to Elena’s Hometown Shelter. Thank you for helping our friends from the other side of the world. If the earth were truly flat, cats would have knocked everything off it by now!
