Here are 4 ways to get ready for meowfest Toronto.
Brush Up on Pet-iquette
We'll be swimming in a sea of adoptable cats and famous feline personalities, so it's essential to brush up on your cat social skills. Remember, each cat has its own purrsonality. Some might be friendly, while others might be skittish. So, follow their lead and ask their cat parent for permission before approaching, petting, or snapping a selfie with their fur ball. Let's keep the respect levels high, especially amidst the wild and wonderful festivities that might push some cats out of their comfort zones.
Plan For The Events You Want To Go To
There will be so many amazing events planned for Toronto. With so many purrformances, photo-ops, meet & greets, prizes, and live DJ, it can be daunting to figure out all the things you want to do! If you want to get around to everything, make sure you plan ahead to know what time your favourite activities are going on, so you don’t miss out on your purr-fect day. Also you might want to come early as the first 200 people through the door at each time slot will get a swag bag.
