The TICA(The International Cat Association) event featured hundreds of fabulous felines who were all examined by international judges in a 20-ring competition.

Domestic cats were judged in separate classes to the pedigree pussies which had been specially-bred in Russia, China and Europe.

There were several cross-breeds which had never been registered before, like the Marguerite, which had been bred from wild Sand Cats normally found in African and Asian deserts.
