This is the second time that the cat show has taken place in Vietnam, following the first held in 2020 under the sponsorship of the WCF, the world’s largest federation for cats globally.

The show features a dozen different breeds of cat, including Persian, Exotic British, Scottish Fold, Bengal, and Maine-Coon.

The finest felines from throughout the northern region gather for the show.

Over the course of a day, judges test the agility of the cats, whilst beauty is also one of criteria for judgement.

A Maine Coons cat is friendly to adults, children, other cats, and even dogs.
