Since 2012, the year that Walker Art Center launched the first ever International Cat Video Festival in Saint Paul, the Festival has become so wildly popular that it has gone on tour! In 2015, the International Cat Video Festival schedule included no less than 48 stops throughout the U.S. Scotland, Greece, Australia and Sweden! A quote from The Associated Press on this groundbreaking event: “Game over. Cats have won the Internet. At least that was the conclusion among the many attendees of the Internet Cat Video Festival on Friday. Decked out with cat ears and painted-on whiskers, they lined up around the block to do in a group what they already do in front of their computers: Watch amusing cat flicks.”

As a huge Walker/Mooney fan, I’m on their listserv and always so glad to read about their latest projects, even if I do live too far away to attend! I have most of their books and look forward to seeing how they catify their new home.
