ABOUT CFA's ANNUAL CAT SHOW & EXPO

More than 100 years ago, feline enthusiasts – who called themselves “cat fanciers” – came together to share their passion for beautiful cats. That same passion is alive today.

Once an invitation-only competition, the CFA International Show and Expo is now a public event for fantastic felines to see and be seen. Now, cat lovers can come to this annual event to celebrate pedigreed and non-pedigreed cats, enjoy various cat competitions, indulge in feline-centric shopping, learn about cat care, be entertained, and even find a new best friend.
