I WENT TO THE CAT SHOW AT THE FAIR THIS WEEK AND IT WAS SHORT BUT SWEET. THEY HAD ABOUT 15 TRAINED CATS, KITTENS, AND HAMSTERS, AND A CHICKEN PERFORMING VARIOUS ACTS. THE CATS ROLLED A BALL ACROSS THE STAGE; JUMPED THROUGH HOOPS OF VARIOUS SIZES, AND HOPPED FROM POST TO POST. THEY MADE A VARIETY OF NOISES ON A STAGE WITH INSTRUMENTS THAT WERE PROGRAMED TO PLAY WHEN THEY TOUCHED THEM.
THEY EXPLAINED HOW THEY TRAINED THEM AND USED A SMALL BIT OF FOOD AFTER THEY PERFORMED ONE STEP OR TRICK. IT WAS INTERESTING TO SEE HOW EASILY THEY WENT BACK INTO THEIR CAGES USING A PIECE OF FOOD AS WELL.
THEY HAD A HAMSTER RIDE IN A SMALL REMOTE KIDS CAR! THEY HAD A CONTEST BETWEEN THE CHICKEN AND TUNA, A WHITE CAT - AS FAR AS HOW MANY TIMES THEY HIT A BELL.
THE DOG SPLASH SHOW WAS MUCH MORE POPULAR. THERE WERE PROBABLY 20 DOGS AND TRAINERS WHO WERE EXPLAINING HOW THEY TRAINED THEIR DOGS TO SPLASH IN 6 FOOT DEEP WATER. THEY HAD A PLATFORM THAT THEY USED AS A RUNWAY TO HAVE THE DOGS TAKE A RUNNING LEAP AND GO AFTER THEIR FAMILIAR OBJECT. SOME OF THEM JUMPED OVER18 FEET INTO THE WATER WHILE OTHERS DID NOT WANT TO GO IN. THESE TRAINERS TRAVELED AROUND FROM FAIR TO FAIR TO PROFIT WITH THEIR ANIMALS. THE POOL MUST HAVE BEEN A HASSLE TO SET UP BUT THE AUDIENCE GOT SPLASHED AS WELL. EVERYONE ENJOYED THE VARIOUS ANTICS THAT EACH DOG DISPLAYED! IT WAS A COOL DAY AND THEY DECIDED TO HAVE THE EVENT ANNOUNCED AS WELL AS THE BREED OF DOG. IT WAS VERY INTERESTING TO SEE THE REACTIONS OF THE CHILDREN TO THIS SHOW AS THEY GOT SPLASHED WHEN THE DOGS JUMPED IN THE POOL NEAR THEM.
