Cat lovers get ready, because KittyCon Tampa will be at the DoubleTree Tampa Airport Hotel November 30 and December 1.
The theme this year is “Meowy Catmas,” and will feature ““vendors, entertainment, expert speakers on cat care and hot rescue topics, Kitty Kosplay, charity auctions, kids’ activities, free product samples and giveaways, cat yoga, and more.” The “Adoption Room” will also be available for people to take home some cats.
If you’re also trying to cry and feel bad about the world, a documentary titled “The Cat Rescuers” will be making its Florida premiere.
The event is entering its second year and is put together by the St. Francis Society Animal Rescue. “The proceeds allow us to continue the lifesaving work we do for neonatal kittens, and sick, injured, and homeless cats in the community,” said Kathy Walvoord, President and Cat Care Coordinator of St. Francis Society Animal Rescue.
Advance tickets can be purchased for just the first day or both days, and a VIP experience is available for those who really, really love cats.
