We've been invited to participate in the 17th Annual Asian Cultural Fair in Salinas Chinatown this year, and we're excited to support this event! The Fair celebrates the cultural and historical presence of the Chinese, Filipino, and Japanese communities in Salinas. There will be a walking tour highlighting the history of Chinatown, delicious food, Tai Chi demonstrations, Filipino folk dancing, a bonsai display, and of course, we'll have volunteers there to talk about our TNR and rescue activities and recruit foster parents. For more information, please visit their website here.

This is our monthly Farmers Market Adoption Event the first Saturday of each month.  We'll be at the San Luis end of the Salinas Farmers Market in Old Town Salinas from 9 am to 2 pm. We'll be grateful if you visit and say hello to all the kittens and puppies in attendance!

Our foster kittens were a hit during the Kitty Cafes during the Carmel Bach Festival in 2025, where they greeted concert attendees of all ages prior to several concerts at the Sunset Center. On the festival feedback forms, the Kitty Cafe was the top request for a return performance so we'll be returning to the Virtuoso Lounge at the Sunset Center in 2026! Check back here for exact dates as the festival gets closer.

We joined the annual Pet Parade in Pacific Grove for the first time in 2025 and had such a good time that we're going back!  Meet us at Caledonia Park, where the parade will begin at 2 pm, loop around part of Lighthouse Avenue, and then return to the park. Animals of all sizes will be participating, and we'll have other adoptable animals for you to meet!

Happy holidays to everyone! We are taking this Saturday off due to the holidays!  Please enjoy time with your family and friends and we'll see you the first Saturday in February!
