Oh boy, it's another Covid-19 update...
We’ve been closely monitoring the COVID-19 outbreak in the Pacific Northwest. Exploding Kittens has come to the difficult decision to postpone our first annual Burning Cat until 2021. We were so excited to bring our community together in real life for the first time, but your safety is our first and foremost priority. Regardless of ticket type, everyone will be receiving a full refund and no further action is required.

What is this?
Burning Cat is a tabletop carnival of oversized games, comics, and two-story tall cat monsters. It’s game night distilled into a weekend of creative amusements and hairy fireballs.

The cat who burns
Towering over it all will be our Burning Cat statue. She is our Goddess. Our muse. Our Catleesi. She will preside over the convention like a furry Sauron. There will be a countdown timer at her feet. When the convention ends, she will erupt with
the light of a thousand stars. She will implode into something terrible and wonderful. She will transform.
She will "burn."
