Caturday 89: At the Cat Show in 1971

I've recently been digitizing more old slides. It being SatCaturday, I found some that I could post.

Being friendly with a cat lady back in 1971, we were encouraged to enter our household pet in a cat show just for fun. Off we went to London, Ontario with Dusty in tow.

One of the judges liked her and awarded her a ribbon: second place, I believe. She behaved well.

A friend of our friend was showing Persians, and I very much liked this little red classic tabby kitten.

We took Baron home. He grew a bit although he never became a big cat.

Here is a somewhere blurry photo of a very hairy me, holding the pair of them. You can see how calm and happy they were to be held.
