Ongoing Events
Up to 225 Cats Being Judged in 5 Rings!
The Garden State Cat Show begins with cat exhibitors/owners entering their cats in our show. The pedigreed cats compete with other pedigreed cats in color, breed and class, hoping to be awarded ribbons and points towards titles, along with regional and national awards. Household Pets compete with other HHPs based on beauty, personality, playfulness and charm. You will see the Best and TOP 10-15 winners per division in the competing classes of Championship, Premiership, Kittens and Household Pets.
In this year’s Presentation Ring, you will be able to enjoy a wide variety of special events. These include the Parade of Breeds, a Cat Costume Contest, Rescue Cat Stories from our Cat Rescue Groups, the Best Household Pet Award, a presentation by Dr. Buchoff, Holistic Veterinarian, all of the End of Show Awards and more!
Feline Agility
Every cat entered in our show can also be signed up to compete in our Feline Agility Ring. This makes for an even playing field, since any cat, pedigreed or not, can win! With the use of a toy, the cats are led over jumps, through a tunnel and up a set of stairs while being timed. The fastest cat to complete the course wins.
