The 4-H Cat Show took place early Tuesday morning with veteran Shelly Miller as judge and Suzanne Maxheimer as superintendent.

There were two classes this year, with the first being Outdoor Cats followed by the Indoor Cats.

There were three entries in each category. It was interesting to see that all the outdoor cats had female handlers and the indoor cats had guys.

2012 Miss Logan County Fair Queen Danielle Juilfs was present to hand out the awards. This is the first time that a queen has ever been present for this event. 

Each 4-H'er had to chronicle the care of their cat. The judge also checked eyes, ears, teeth, coat and bone structure as well as
how they interacted with their handlers. All six handlers did very well with their diaries and the overall health of each of the cats shown.
