This gala was the “cat’s meow.”
Cat Depot hosted Cat Tails: A Night in the Gardens on March 9 at Michael’s on the Bay at Selby Gardens.
Upon arrival, guests were invited in with the sound of the harp and were greeted by Cat Depot mascots Calli and Petunia.
The gardens were filled with silent auction items, including cat silhouettes painted by local artists, large cat trees and baskets filled with items for cat-lovers. The highlight of the night was the six kittens, all of whom are available for adoption at Cat Depot.
The night ended with a raffle drawing for a two-person trip anywhere on JetBlue Airlines. Guests were also given a bag of treats to spoil their cats at home as they exited the gardens.
