The CWA is committed to keeping the site accessible to everyone. We welcome feedback on ways that we can improve the site’s accessibility. If you use assistive technology and the format of our web material interferes with your ability to access the information, please email our President to be provided with further assistance.

Disclaimer: The Cat Writers' Association never solicits donations on behalf of specific CWA members. There is one CWA-sponsored fundraiser held once a year in conjunction with our annual conference, which benefits a non-profit cat organization. Any correspondence from an email address you haven't seen before should be ignored and not considered affiliated with CWA in any way.
