Sea-Meow, which payments itself as Washington’s largest cat conference, invaded Seattle Heart’s Exhibition Corridor over the weekend and introduced with it appearances from the Two Loopy Cat Women, Moshow the Cat Rapper, and Christopher Watson aka the Catluminati, in addition to a cat costume contest, a cat-calling contest, cat bingo, and dozens of distributors slinging every thing from cat beds to catnip to cat espresso. (That’s, cat-themed espresso that advantages cat rescues and never, like, espresso for cats.)
However most significantly, there have been cats. So many cats. Previous cats, younger cats, kitten cats. Cats accessible for adoption, cats accessible for snuggles, and cats being pushed, carried, and cradled in backpacks and strollers and people luggage with little clear bubble cutouts that make them appear to be grumpy-faced astronauts.
Election outcomes gained’t be in for a number of hours, and even then, it could take days to know who gained. So shut Twitter (what are you continue to doing on that hell web site anyway???), mute Steve Kornacki, unclench your jaw, and scroll via these candy scenes from Sea-Meow.
