The most paw-sitively meow-nificent news has dropped: after a hiatus, the animal aficionados from the Dog Lovers Show are bringing back the Cat Lovers Show, set to hit the Melbourne Showgrounds on October 26 and 27.
For cat owners, the event will be the purr-fect opportunity to meet fellow crazy cat people, and for aspiring cat owners, it will be a great chance to live vicariously through those lucky enough to have a furry pal in their lives (or even inspire you to finally adopt one for yourself).
The two-day expo will feature more than 200 beautiful kitties in the Pat-A-Cat and Breed Showcase zones, and you can meet and greet all of them and learn more about the lifestyle requirements, temperament and characteristics of each cat. There will also be opportunities to chat with renowned animal experts to get essential tips on feline behaviour, nutrition, enrichment and breed selection.
One of the main objectives of the show will be to raise awareness for cat rescue and to work closely with shelters across the country to drive adoption and increase education about responsible cat ownership. The Whiskas adoption zone will provide all the information you need on providing a loving home to a cat in need, and you can even meet cats ready for adoption (hint, hint).
Plus, there will also be a Championship Cat Show, free feline face painting, expert discussions, stalls loaded with the latest cat products and guest speakers. Plus, if you take part in the kitty cosplay fancy dress, you could win a prize.
