Cosplay Cats & Feline Fursuits for Animating the Event and Energizing the Crowd

CFA is seeking cosplay cats or feline fursuiters to entertain and engage with an expected crowd of 15,000 cat lovers. The chosen participants will work the crowd, spread joy, take photographs, and create an exciting atmosphere.

Requirements:

• Costume MUST be obviously resemble a cat.
• No other animals, except maybe a mouse or a fish :)
• Costume MUST not be suggestive in any way. This is a family friendly event.
• Costume MUST be complete.  We won't be able to approve any costumes that are not fully constructed and wearable at the time of application submission.

Preference will be given to:

• Applicants that do not require the reimbursement of travel expenses
• Applicants who can come entertain in a group of 2 or more
• Applicants with experience interacting with a crowd

Once the application period ends, we will select the cat characters we find most appealing. While we aspire to accommodate every applicant, our budget limits us to a specific number of opportunities.

The event will run each day for 6-8 hours, during which you will be provided with regular breaks and a private area to relax, take off your costume, dress, or change as necessary.

CFA is eager to provide fair compensation for particpant involvement, but we're somewhat unfamiliar with the typical arrangements for cosplay professionals as this is our first time engaging in such a partnership.

We want to ensure that we adequately cover time and travel expenses, especially if based outside our local area. We are open-minded and willing to negotiate to reach an agreement that suits both parties.
