A cat-centered summer camp experience invites kids ages 7 to 13 to laugh, create, connect, and learn in a way that nurtures confidence and compassion. Developed by Missy, founder of She’s All Cat and the creator of Arizona’s first cat café, La Gattara (now Phoenix Cat Cafe), the program draws on years of work in animal welfare and community education to help young people view animals with empathy and purpose. Each day blends playful exploration with meaningful skills. Campers learn how cats think and communicate, take part in hands-on projects such as crafts, storytelling, and advocacy activities, enjoy painting alongside feline friends and calming yoga with cats, and hear from veterinarians and behavior specialists. They also connect with adoptable cats in collaboration with local rescue partners, and mascots Chicky Nuggie and Waffles make appearances. The heart of the camp is empowerment. Children discover their voice, grow their confidence, and learn how their choices can make a positive difference. The week concludes with a graduation that recognizes each participant as a graduate of the academy and celebrates them as young superheroes for animals. To close the season, nine groups from across Arizona come together for a showcase where campers share what they learned through creative presentations and performances while celebrating a growing community of young advocates. The focus throughout is simple and lasting, helping kids become kinder, braver, and more aware of the world around them so compassion becomes a habit they carry forward.
