About CatVideoFest 2024

CatVideoFest is back! An adorable and hilarious compilation of the best cat videos culled from countless hours of scouring the internet, CatVideoFest is a joyous communal experience, only available in theaters! [73 min; action, adventure, family]

Each CatVideoFest screening helps raise money for cats in need through partnerships with local cat charities, animal welfare organizations, and shelters to best serve cats in local areas. Since 2019, over $150,000 has been raised for local shelters in addition to adoptions, fostering, volunteer sign-ups, and much more through CatVideoFest screenings. In 2024 so far, $30,000 has been raised to benefit local shelters and animal welfare organizations.

IU Cinema’s CatVideoFest 2024 screening supports the Monroe County Humane Association (MCHA). Since 1956, MCHA has embodied hope and compassion for animals and their human companions throughout Monroe County and its surrounding regions. With a legacy rich in heartfelt service and impactful change spanning more than six decades, MCHA steadfastly remains a sanctuary of support, kindness, and proactive care for animals in their most vulnerable times.
