We are excited to announce that the local charity partner for this event is Loving Care Cat Rescue!

Loving Care Cat Rescue Mission: To provide loving care to every cat that comes through the rescue, regardless of their circumstances or medical condition; and actively seek a permanent home for each cat/kitten rescued. Unless serious illness would warrant, euthanasia is not an option for cats in the care of Loving Care Cat Rescue. Loving Care Cat Rescue is a rescue organization that never puts a price tag on the lives of the cats we save. We provide medical treatment, regardless of the cost, as long as the result is a safe and healthy future for our cats. A lofty goal for sure, however, we have never wavered from this goal. Loving Care Cat Rescue is celebrating 6 years of service to the community and the cats and kittens that need us. I am pleased to report that we have saved 3,341 local cats and kittens as an all-volunteer rescue over these six years. Sadly, the need for what we do is greater than ever, and the impact on our funds grows exponentially.
