J.D. Vance, the Republican VP pick, stirred up a storm with his recent comments about Kamala Harris and other U.S. leaders. Referring to them as “childless cat ladies” in a 2021 interview with Tucker Carlson, Vance faced backlash from Harris and other liberals. This episode effectively ruled out any possibility of his appearance at CatCon, a weekend event celebrating all things feline.
CatCon is set to take place at the Pasadena Convention Center, drawing cat enthusiasts from all over the country and beyond. The event, organized by CatCon president Susan Michals, aims to create a community for cat lovers. With attendees from all 50 states and 24 countries, CatCon has evolved into a popular gathering for those who share a passion for these furry companions.
Michals expressed her desire to challenge the stereotypical image of a “cat lady” and showcase a more positive and contemporary representation of cat enthusiasts. However, it is clear that Vance, with his controversial comments, does not align with this vision. He is unlikely to resonate with the progressive and inclusive atmosphere that CatCon aims to cultivate.
J.D. Vance’s remarks have effectively distanced him from the vibrant and welcoming community of cat lovers that CatCon represents. While the event strives to celebrate feline companionship in a modern light, Vance’s dated and divisive comments place him at odds with the values upheld at CatCon. As the weekend unfolds, it is evident that Vance’s presence will not be missed among the attendees who gather to revel in their shared love for all things feline.
