- HOUSEHOLD PET competition is for all random-bred or non-pedigreed cats. Entries must have all their physical properties, and must not be declawed. Kittens must be older than four months on the opening day of the show and those entries older than eleven months must be neutered or spayed. Pedigreed cats with disqualifying features are eligible to be entered in the Household Pet Class.
- FELINE AGILITY is for cats that love to run and jump! Cats are definitely trainable and most are willing to follow a feather or dangling toy anywhere! It's amazing how they can climb up and down those high steps and race through those weave pole areas with such ease and speed. Agility is a pre-entered competition, open to any cat, so a household pet could be the overall winner as easily as could a top winning grand champion. Additional info is available at agility.cfa.org.
