The goodies will also be sold through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oksgear.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OKS Gear Shop<\/a> for those two days. There&#8217;ll even be a meet-and-greet with Kat Curtis and the catfluencer &#8220;One Eared Uno,&#8221; and I am only now learning that this is a thing. The duo will be featured in a special playthrough video of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2.<\/p>\n<figure data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-context='{ \"core\": { \"image\": { \"initialized\": true } } }' class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-ref-id=\"1860116\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.core.image.showLightbox\" style=\"cursor: zoom-in\" height=\"576\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MGS-Cat.jpg?w=636\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1860116\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Exclamation point!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CatCon 2026 runs October 10-11, and if you can&#8217;t make it in, please do not think about getting a giant cardboard box to sneak past security.
