AUBURN — Sure, it’s not what cats love — a day of being prodded, petted, cuddled and manhandled — yet over 100 cats tolerated just that during the Cats on the Beach 13th annual International Cat Association cat show Saturday at Horgan Arena.
With “best in how” the ultimate goal, naked cats (sphynx), luxurious Persians, sleek Siamese, fluffy ragdolls, giant Maine coons, exotic spotted cats (bengals, savannahs), curly-coated Rex cats and more paraded in front of judges.
Household pets (non-pedigreed cats) were also judged in a special category.
