Bringing together an all-star lineup from Cat World: Celebrity Cats, adoptable felines, DJs, games, activities, art, vendors, presentations, seminars, comedians, tattoos, tasty vegetarian food, CPCC will be ushering a much larger weekend event on April 13 and 14, 2019. With more venues to allow more attendees to interact with the cats for adoption, the goal of CPCC is to both find forever homes for our lovely feline friends as well as host seminars about rescue, kitten care, TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return), and more.
Some of the biggest names in the Cat World will headline the convention: Kitten Lady a.k.a. Hannah Shaw, Klaus, Stache, Sir Thomas Truehart. On top of that, CPCC parties on April 12th and 13th at The Wonder Bar will feature musical acts including The Cure tribute supergroup THE LOVE CATSfeaturing members of THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM / DEAD SWORDS (Alex Levine, guitar/keys), THE LOVED ONES/THE EXPLOSION (Chris Gonzalez, bass), and founder of Catsbury Park DJ Bornschein on guitar and vocals, LIL BUB: THE BAND, TRAGEDY: ALL METAL TRIBUTE TO THE BEE GEES AND BEYOND and COUGRR.
Last year’s two-day event drew over 5,000 attendees from all over the country and raised over $40,000 that was donated to Catsbury Park, The Brodie Fund, Humane Society Tinton Falls, Jersey Shore Animal Foundation, Camden County Shelter, Paul the Cat Guy, North Shore Animal League and Asbury Park Boardwalk Cats.
The Catsbury Park Cat Convention is proudly hosted and organised by Catsbury Park, a 501(c)3 non-profit rescue based in Asbury Park and is honored to be partnered with The Brodie Fund, Milo’s Sanctuary, Jersey Shore Animal Foundation, and the Associated Humane Society of Tinton Falls as our chosen beneficiaries in 2019.
