Eight ring CFA All Breed Cat Show has ended in Kyiv. It was attended by owners and breeders regardless of their club and association affiliation.

People could not just admire the cats in the City Palace for Children and Youth, but also buy an animal of their favored breed there.

Owners and experts answered various questions, ranging from feeding and naming a cat to bathing the big-eared creatures.

How many different tempers are in different cat breeds! How different kitties are by color and fluffiness! In what ways are their tempers different, and how best to bond with individual kitties?

Having visited the exhibition, one could learn a lot about his or her Smokey or Shadow... For example, the Persian is one of the oldest cat breeds.

When the Persian chinchilla cats were first bred in Turkey, they had long white hair. Another example is the British chinchilla, a kingly breed in the cat family. Its nobility is evident in virtually all postures and manners of representatives of the breed.

If you are short of time, but, nonetheless, want to have a cat, then the Exotic Shorthair kitty is exactly what you need!

They were bred by crossing the Persians with the American Shorthairs in the early 1960s.

The American variety of the Persian is a short-nosed, round-muzzled, and small-eared animal.

They exhibit cute, kitten-like behavior which counts among the best qualities of this breed, while their big round eyes, small ears, flat muzzle and short nose cause both children and adults to admire them.
