On October 17 & 18th, 2009 the American Kennel Club® (AKC) and Cat Fanciers’ Association® (CFA) hosted 36,000 people over two days at Meet the Breeds in New York City. The spectators were able to pet the dogs and cats and ask questions to learn about each breed.
The European Burmese breed was represented by Debra Comeans, Ann-Louise De Voe, Allene & Ed Keating, Judith Kollmann, John & Anna Smart and Nancy Wood together with 7 European Burmese cats. Below are some pictures from the event.
