Can I bring my cat?
No. Participants’ cats are NOT allowed at CatCon, for the safety of our guests as well as our feline companions. There will be celebricats at our Meet & Greets, and hundreds of kittens in our Adoption Village, but understand these are protected, controlled environments.
Participants who arrive with a cat will be turned away at the door. If you adopt a cat from our adoption village, our adoption group will hold it for you until you are ready to leave the convention center.
