\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My friend Romeo persuaded me to attend a cat show<\/a> on Sunday, and it far exceeded my expectations in every way. The cats were disgusting, and the cat fanciers were totally weird.<\/p>\n

If you’re anything like me, and I know you are, you like to explore subcultures. It’s fun being a cultural tourist as long as you don’t get too close to the natives.<\/p>\n

I don’t have a camera but I used my cellphone to capture the intriguing hairdos of the cat enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

This girl sat next to me as the guy in the top photo assessed some gigantic oversized cats, including two that belonged to her and resembled young grizzly bears.<\/p>\n

Ta da! I saved the best for last. What the fuck! I was blown away by this lady. She was like a show within a show. Look at that hair! I got as close as I could, but I couldn’t tell for sure what was going on in that hairnet. She might have actually had a cat in there, or even Daphne Guinness! \u00a0 Let’s look at her one more time:<\/p>\n
