There was a CFA-sponsored cat show this morning here in the Richmond, Virginia area and Paula (AlleyGirl) and I decided to meet up and go to the show, with lunch afterwards.
We had a really nice time looking at all the gorgeous kitties there. Paula found a sweet little Turkish Angora she fell in love with and I saw a sweet little lilac point Siamese boy named Kashi that I fell in love with ... and the breeder actually let me pet him!!!
It was only a one day show so there weren't very many vendors there. I was hoping to pick up some new cat toys and treats, but the only vendor represented was Siamese Rescue. I loved their cat beds, but they were a bit spendy and my kids just got a couple of new beds for the winter so I didn't buy anything.
We went to lunch afterwards at Wendy's and talked for about an hour.
Paula is a lovely person and I look forward to getting to know her better since we live so close to each other. I must also say that she is a patient soul because I am evidently quite geographically challenged and got lost on the way to the cat show and then again on the way to Wendy's afterwards so I was late to both!!. (I am so sorry I made you wait like that, Paula!!)
I didn't think to take pictures (stupid me) but now that I think about it, I am glad we didn't because my well pump broke right before I was getting into the shower so I had no water (and couldnt shower - it was a good thing I took a bubble bath last night before I went to bed!!) and my hair looked like poop.
Maybe next time!
