This is a purrrrrfect opportunity to learn about Cats! Our youth leaders have organized some fun, interactive activities for you. No need to bring your furry friend.

With summer right around the corner, it’s time to get ready for the fair! Hear from past participants at the Dane County Fair cat show, and get tips on how to prepare your cat to be shown at the fair. You’ll have an opportunity to practice your presentation about your cat to judges, and even plan a creative enclosure for your pet!

This meeting is open to all 4-H members interested in learning more about cats.

This is an in-person meeting for youth in grades K-13. An adult is required to attend with youth in grades K-5.

No fee or need to pre-register for this meeting.
