I had the pleasure of visiting the very first CatConLA this weekend. Billed as “ComicCon, for cat people” the event hosted several famous cats, over a hundred vendors, and had thousands of cat loving visitors over the two day convention held at The Reef in Los Angeles. I really enjoyed myself and I look forward to next years event.
