“The Cat Show Live is not just an event; it’s a culmination of our love for cats and our commitment to responsible, educated cat ownership, (RECO)” says Samantha Marsh, co-founder of The Cat Show Live Ltd. “Our long-term vision is to establish an annual event in the calendar that not only celebrates feline excellence but also gives back to support cat charities and rescues across the UK.”

This event not only celebrates the cat world but also serves as a platform to spotlight the incredible work done in the UK to rescue and rehome cats.

At the heart of The Cat Show Live is a commitment to fostering a culture of RECO emphasizing the importance of informed and compassionate care for our feline companions. The event invites visitors to delve into the heartwarming world of cat rescues and adoptions through “Hope Alley,” an innovative initiative that leverages a digital rehome application to support and streamline the rehoming process.

The Cat Show Live Ltd stands proud in its mission to contribute positively to the community. A significant stride towards this goal includes the annual commitment to donate a percentage of profits to chosen charity(s), underscoring a dedication to making a lasting impact. However, the true essence of the event lies in its support for facilitating connections between visitors and rescue centres.

“Hope Alley” not only showcases the technological advancements in aiding cat rescues but also serves as a beacon for those seeking to make a difference. The Cat Show Live Ltd invites attendees to witness firsthand the incredible work happening in the realm of feline welfare and encourages active participation in the noble cause of rehoming cats.

Join us at the Cat Show and its launch event as we celebrate the companionship of cats, champion responsible pet ownership and support the remarkable efforts of rescue centres across the UK. Together, we are embarking on a journey to make a positive impact on the lives of our beloved feline friends.
