Trans Day of Visibility
This year we want to emphasize our support for the trans community with a little afternoon/evening event. There are still so many things about the LGBTQ+ community we are learning about and there is always something new. Despite that, we want to continue to support and provide a safe space to the best of our ability.
In light of recent events, we want to show our support more than ever.
On Monday March 31 from 4-8p, we'll be hosting a social gathering for trans folx, allies, and anyone who wants to talk. Nicole from Front Porch Collective will be here with resources and more- she's also a grief counselor. Proceeds from this event will go to The Unicorn Collective, a local non-profit that is here to help folx relocate to safer spaces in CNY.
Visits are $7 for the half hour in the lounge and a basic tea or coffee. We'll also be donating 15% of our treat sales from that day!
Looking forward to year FOUR!
It's back! Next month, it's time once again for our fourth annual Kitten Shower! There may still be snow on the ground, but kitten season doesn't wait for anyone.
For the weekend of 4.12 and 4.13, we will be collecting donations to prep our rescue partners for the inevitable influx of calls for help. We're primarily looking for kitten food- Iams or Purina dry and Fancy Feast Kitten- any assortment of litter, pee pads, Miracle Nipples, and kitten milk replacer.
We'll be updating our Amazon wishlist to reflect this closer to the event so those who cannot make it in person can still send donations if they wish.
This weekend will also include our next stabbing event- Tats for Cats IV! Raine from the Raven's Nest Tattoo will be back for a flash tattoo event with more adorable kitty-themed tattoos to get inked for a good cause.
We will release more info on this soon, including the opportunity to book your spot, so keep an eye on our socials for details!
Here's to another year of success- we hope to see you there!
