What happened

Thousands of visitors attended the two-day exhibition to admire dozens of cat breeds and watch the highly anticipated “Best in Show” finals.

Why it matters

One of the event’s biggest stars was Archie, an 8-year-old Maine Coon from Bulgaria, who won the “Audience Favorite” award to loud applause from spectators.

Common ground

Visitors also showed strong interest in rare breeds, including a seven-month-old Canadian Sphynx named Morianne Shadow.

Perspective signals
