1. For starters, it's called "Catdance." Like Sundance, but a cat version. A cat version is always roughly a million times better.
2. The event is hosted by Gilles Marini, who is French, and sexy, and a "cat guy."
3. All of the drinks have names that are cat versions of iconic actors, and they are delicious.
4. There was free food, and while it thankfully wasn't actual cat food, it had a nice touch of cat on the packaging.
5. Oh, and all of this candy was also free and in small enough sizes that you could sample it all.
6. There was a red carpet where people could pose with enormous cats.
7. And a photo booth filled with cat toys that people could play and pose with.
8. Did I mention that the films you get to watch are all ABOUT CATS and STAR CATS?!
9. Basically, everything about these short films was tailored in a way that anyone who loves cats — or nice things — would be happy.
10. The audience got to vote on the five films — the voting is still open, so go and cast your own vote! — and the winning film will receive $50,000 and a Fresh Step Golden Litter Scoop.
11. Everyone got to watch the films in 3D, and even the 3D glasses had little cat ears on them.
12. If you weren't into 3D glasses, then there were really cute cat ear headbands you could snag.
13. Pretty much all of the cool kids wore those. See?
14. Even something simple, like going to the bathroom, was aptly cat themed.
15. There was cat makeup, to help you look your very kitty best.
16. And kitty tattoos that even your parents would think are totally adorable.
