Cats are Welcome!
Attendees are welcome to bring their cat(s). However, please follow these guidelines to ensure a pleasant, safe, and stress-free experience for both you and your cat:
- Cats should already be comfortable wearing a harness and leash.
- This should NOT be the first time you take your cat outside to a public space. There will be a lot going on, and if your cat isn’t already comfortable with outdoor adventures, this is not the time to test it out.
- Know your cat! If your cat isn’t comfortable in new places or around other people, leave them at home. Because this is a public park, there will likely be dogs in the area as well.
- Bring a backpack carrier or stroller. Your cat should have a safe space they can rest in if they get tired or need a break from all the activity.
