The judge is Darrell Newkirk.

[@virtualfishtank6077]

I can just imagine him saying "Yes, this is indeed a cat."

[@DougguoD]

🤔 I've never heard any of them say that... 🤔 🤷‍♂️

[@fortunecookiee2566]

Lol

[@zxKAOS1]

Or plot twist... the cat shots out a tentacle, eats the judge, while the judge screams "NOT A CAT!!" just before he's consumed :D

[@cliquenic2171]

no idea what’s happening but i love it

[@Anazanix]

What beautiful cats. I love the zoom in on the hiss at 1:58 haha.

[@itsheymii]

These cats are so calm and lovely with the judges

[@DougguoD]

😀 Stood out for me too 😀 easy to see why bicolors have become so popular 🎨

[@truthhurts3479]

Omg I'm getting my bi color Maine coon nov 5 . All those cats are amazing I want them all lol

[@DougguoD]

@Truth Hurts Ha, just working on Maine Coon alters and thought you'd seen that - and realized I'm still working on it 😄

[@truthhurts3479]

Doug guoD happy just see all these amazing cats life is grand

[@mahlok8210]

[@taraelizabethdensley9475]

[@hilaryginger8467]

loved the zoom in on the cat face

[@anna.m8]

1:15 that wiggle

[@glasslinger]

What a fun but difficult job! The kitties are all so beautiful!

[@DougguoD]

Sometimes judges do say that, and sometimes one can see they really are in a quandray trying to decide ⚖️

[@savannahjohnson633]

I just want this job sooooo bad. I would pay to be a judge lol

[@user-qu5sr7lg1f]

what a wholesome guy

[@lindapetersen379]

If King Vivo was there he'd steal the whole show!...

[@calken546]

There all Maine Coons they all win.

[@DougguoD]

😼 With my ever so sensitive receptors I believe I've detected a Maine coon fan 😼

[@rsdude1121hal0]

I LOVE CATS

[@bayleeferrell3419]

I couldn't judge cats bc all would be the best

[@DougguoD]

Judges do have time constraints (or at least encouragements of same 😉) - however some take much longer than others ⚖️ dunno if that's a good thing or not 🍽️ (usually my 1st meal of the day is dinner at these shows) but I'm much happier seeing the cats for a while so I can take these vids (which has a lot to do with which judges I choose) rather than watching an assembly line blur of fur 🐈🐈🐈‍⬛🐈

[@user-rk2qy9oy5u]

I love their fluffy tail💕

[@TrudyPatootie]

*I've been a dog lover for 75 years...My daughter introduced cats to me and that was* *it! Absolutely love them!*

[@DougguoD]

They're quite different from dogs in most ways, whatever KZbin may imply 😏 🤩 I suppose that's what makes KZbin cats famous 🤩

[@TrudyPatootie]

@@DougguoD *I have a beautiful *Norwegian Forest Cat..Roscoe Stevie Nix* *I am absolutely GAGA over Doug.* 💖😸

[@DougguoD]

@@TrudyPatootie Has your cat ever worn a melon ? 😝 I've never seen a cat wearing a melon 🍈 'cept, of course, on the net 💻 Surprising enough seeing Cornish Rex wearing dresses ✨👀

[@inainteokok6844]

Arbitru e cel mai bine să fi, cele mai frumoase exemplare trec prin mâna ta. Pufulici și mangăici. Mai și o pupătură. ☺

[@Funnyfish66]

Wait... has this whole competition been a ploy so that this old guy could play with people's cats?

[@DougguoD]

😇 He is their current president, so yes 😇

[@KittyTH19]

The kitten are all so beautiful

[@lynncunningham829]

Thanks so much for letting me know you have a wonderful day and God bless you and keep safe

[@smoothkk1]

I loveee the cats but the judge is a pro.. He definitely understands structure and personality while still showing just a little favor and fun

[@logann8243]

I wonder what goes through these cats minds.

[@DougguoD]

Mostly very surprised to be there 👀 then time for a long nap 😴

[@Erin-ky5fk]

I’m so stoned enjoying this fully

[@DougguoD]

How's the sound ? 😄

[@Spnlgrl1985]

Nice! I've never seen a Cameo like the last one in the class. Very cool. We have a Silver McTabby and White male we show in ACFA. Very fun to watch them play!

[@DougguoD]

Having not seen one before I was quite keen to get some vid, yes ✅ (and one never knows what one's got for sure 'till it's "in the can" as they say 🎬)

[@marysanders9461]

All the cat shows I've been to as a spectator I've never seen one, either. Might be a newer color.

[@elowishusmirkatroid4898]

How do you get to be Cat Show judge? I want that job!

[@savannahjohnson633]

Me too!!!

[@jamesspencer3016]

The dude also doing the stuff..yeah he is a cat man..

[@kaylah_baylah4549]

Look at those tails

[@DougguoD]

Quite a bit longer than Persian tails, least they should be 😇

[@ohcaptainmycaptain4829]

1:16 I'm going to try doing that to my cat loool.

[@DougguoD]

😏

[@igotboredbutcouldntthinkof8018]

I feel bad for the kitties that don't win anything lol

[@jamesspencer3016]

I had alot of dealings with wild bobcats..and they are 100% a mixed breed with them..

[@thisisaplaceofmemories920]

🖤

[@shizukagozen777]

Thumbnail cat looks like a nougat. Makes me hungry. 😋😍

[@DougguoD]

😄

[@dokpar5018]

A judge with a distended, drooping belly, is judging a proportionally athletic cat

[@pffadi]

よくわからないけどなんかかわいい

[@pffadi]

でもしっぽが怖がってるからかわいそう

[@funestta]

1:59 HAHAHAH

[@PeachthePomMom]

Mhm Yes Mhm Yep, it’s a cat

[@DougguoD]

Judges go through a lot of training to determine that ✅

[@crypt.y2k]

poor cats😞

[@patquint3291]

I’d say they are loved and pampered and healthy and happy.

[@jchen8902]

Well, show business is a tough job, but it's only a few weeks a year! The rest of the year they're relaxing and being pampered just like most cats. Plus, show cats are only in competition for a few years before they're retired.

[@huhhuh9598]

Old comment, but these animals are near guaranteed to recieve treatment that a common pet cat could only dream of. These cats are people's pride and hard work, they wouldn't just allow someone to hurt a cat they have invested so much time and money into.
