Who knew that cat videos were art?

The Internet Cat Video Festival is coming to Boise, Idaho, after previous stops in cities such as Chicago, Memphis, Portland, Vienna, Athens and Jerusalem. The festival, which uses the hashtag #catvidfest on social media, was in Minneapolis two years ago, where approximately 10,000 people attended. According to a Jan. 13, 2014, UPI story, last summer it returned to the Minnesota State Fair, where more than 11,000 attendees paid as much as $20 each to watch a 75-minute collection of cat videos.

Actual cats, however, are not allowed to attend.
