CFA International

The grandest cat show is the CFA International held once a year.  This is a huge show with contestants from all over the world.  In addition to the standard judging, the top three cats and kittens of each breed are given special ribbons.  The single best cat and kitten of each breed is presented a "Best of Breed" award.  Appropriate to the occasion, this final award presentation is a formal affair for the judges, wearing tuxedos and formal gowns while presenting the best of the best.

Here, Alspots Talisman of WildTracks is brought forward to receive this "Best Ocicat" (best of breed) ribbon in the final judging 1998 CFA International in Kansas City, MO.
