Join us Saturday, June 14, 2025 from 11-3 for our 5th annual Rocket City Kittyaplooza! It’s FREE to the public and a big day of adoptions, fundraisers and kitty snuggles! Our goal for this event is to encourage our community to spay and neuter their pets. And if you find a stray, or have barn cats, or are taking care of a feral colony, please reach out to your local rescues or shelters to help get the animals spayed and neutered at no cost to you or just $5!
Please visit the First Floor West Gallery and witness the amazing exhibit: “The Feline Gaze: Art By & For Cats”. All artwork is made by cats, or humans who love cats. Art pieces will be included in our online auction. QR codes will be in the Gallery for access to the auction.
