Every year, the National Norwegian Forest Cat Breed Club Show brings together cat lovers and their faithful feline companions.

Just like at dog shows, the competing cats are judged by the standards of their breed. The greater the conformity to specific breed standards, the higher the score. But whether you choose to compete or not, cat shows can still be an exciting and quirky experience for every cat lover.
