The winner of Portland's 2012 International Cat Show is a four-month-old unregistered kitten. Jassenia, a chocolate point and white longhair, whose owner, Marilyn McCorkindal hails from Vancouver Island, British Columbia in Canada, was named Best in Show during a finale ceremony Sunday night at the conclusion of the cat show.
She is not registered with the American Kennel Club. Pamela Barrett, show manager, said Jassenia is a household pet kitten, which means her breeds are unknown. The kitten was chosen by a combination of votes from spectators, judges and the audience that attended the Best in Show crowning.
