Barack Obama and John McCain attended a New York cat show this weekend -- Obama the Bombay cat and McCain the American Shorthair, that is.

The two felines were vying for the title of "Purr-fect President" at the Cat Fanciers' Association-IAMS 2008 championship that opened on Saturday at Madison Square Garden.

More than 40 breeds are represented among the several hundred competing animals. The top title goes for "Best in Show". In addition, hundreds of other kittens and cats were available for adoption.
