On the catwalk

Snowdown Feline Fashion Show walks for the 37th year
Kylie Cobb and her cat, Cash, won best Snowdown theme costume at the 37th annual Snowdown Feline Fashion Show on Saturday at McDonald’s. Cobb said she’s been dressing up her cats since she was a kid. “I thought it would be funny,” she said.

One of Snowdown’s original events, the Feline Fashion Show has been taking the stage and letting hip cats strut their stuff for 37 years.

Kathy Bowser, who helps organize the event, something she’s done since the event’s inception, called the showcase a crowd pleaser. McDonald’s has remained the title sponsor of the show ever since it began.

Some cats had stage fright and had to be coaxed onto the catwalk with treats.

“We have four categories: the funniest, most formal, best look-alike and best Snowdown theme, and we have wonderful trophies,” she said. “I think it’s just something fun to put together.”

Kylie Cobb said she’s been dressing up her cats since she was a kid.

“I just wanted to see how he’d react and how he would do with it,” she said about her cat, Cash. “I thought it would be funny.”

Funny, and on the mark, too: Cash won the best Snowdown theme category.
