Glamor Kitty Shyanara Crowned No. 1 in Miami Beach
Shyanara, named the nation’s No. 1 Glamor Kitty, received a $500 jeweled crown and mink cape at the Eighth Annual Glamor Kitty Contest in Miami Beach. The cat, among about 30 million felines in the U.S. and more than 20,000 entrants, gained fame after owner Robert Dombrowski of San Antonio bought her for $1.50 in Korean yen three years ago while stationed in Korea. The event is sponsored by Waverly Mineral Products Co. of Philadelphia.
