EDISON, N.J., July 11, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The 83rd
Annual Garden State Cat Club Expo promises to be the BEST Expo to
date.
Located at the NJ Convention and Expedition Center, 97 Sunfield
Ave, Edison, on July 20-21, this year's show offers fun for
all ages.
This year's breed cat show is themed "Cats in Wonderland"
which adds a playful and whimsical element to the 300-400 breed
cats who strut their stuff in front of nine internationally
renowned judges.
Considered one of the primo cat shows in the Cat Fancy
Association, the Garden State Cat Show has attracted entries from
around the country and as far away as Japan.
Not only will the competitors try to win "Best Cat" with their
felines, they hope to win "Best themed hat" or "Best Cage
decoration". Kathy Pritchard of
Spotsylvania, Va. will be tough
competition with her Cornish Rex cats dressed in one of 200
outrageous designer gowns and accessories.
Ms. Pritchard is returning as one of the main attractions at
this year's Cats in Wonderland theme – come see the
Famous Fashionistacats posing for photos on their cat sized
grand piano. (see attached

Looking for a new feline family member? Come visit our many
cages housing many cats and kittens who will be available for
qualified adoptions. Last year's Expo proudly reports that 44
felines went successfully to forever homes. The GSCC hopes to top this number this year.
The Meow Mall offers great shopping from the many vendors
selling unique cat themed items, as well as jewelry, food goods and
many services for home and office. If shopping doesn't interest
someone, there's plenty of booths that offer educational
opportunities.
Steve Ross, Somerset, is an expert on CPR for pets and
people. Renowned judge, Iris Zinck
will have actual breed cats to teach the audience fun facts about
Siamese, Maine Coons, Persians and many, many more.
If speed is of interest, there's the excitement of "Cat Agility"
– the audience can watch as cats run through a timed obstacle
course – some cross the finish line in 7 seconds – others might
take 3 minutes – it's truly a fun activity to watch for everyone.

Once again, world famous caricaturist Steve Nyman, Denville, will be at the show drawing
keepsakes from photos, cell phones or people sitting in front of
him. For a nominal donation to rescue cats, he will create a large
portrait for years to enjoy. (Image
