Kingston Cat Show

Last Saturday, I decided to make the short trip to Kingston to take in some fancy cats taking part in the Canadian Cat Association's national show. The cats (and their owners) are quite the sight. It was a blast and I would love to shoot things like this daily if that paid, somehow.
