The Edmonton Cat Tour invites cat lovers to gather and go for a walk together on a pre-planned route in a specific neighbourhood, making stops along the way to view, wave, and say hello to cats who live in the neighbourhood. Participants stand on the sidewalk or lawn to interact / wave / view / snap photos of the cats (who stay in their homes, balconies, windows, or come out on their porch).

Inspired by Cat Tour Toronto, and other cat tours around the world, the Edmonton Cat Tour is another ameowzing way the Edmonton International Cat Festival hopes to bring the cat community together to help launch our Edmonton Cat Festival Month of CATivities culminating in our big Edmonton International Cat Festival on Sunday, May 31.
