Local rescue organization hosts “Cinco de Meow-O” party

Come celebrate Cinco de Mayo and GiveBIG with Seattle Area Feline Rescue! 

From 5:30–7:30 on Tuesday, May 5th, Seattle Area Feline Rescue will offer snacks, prizes, virgin “Meow-garitas,” adorable cats to pet, and more at their Shoreline adoption center. 

Those who attend Cinco de Meow-O will meet the felines of the rescue, enjoy festive treats and mingle with other animal lovers, all while supporting the cause to save homeless cats. 

Admission is free, but donations are encouraged. All proceeds will fund lifesaving food, medicine, and veterinary care for rescued cats and kittens. Gifts made at “Cinco de Meow-O” donation stations will be stretched by matching funds from The Seattle Foundation as part of the Foundation’s 24 hour GiveBIG event. 

“We're looking forward to hosting a fun, light-hearted event for the community,” said Shelley Lawson, the rescue’s communications coordinator. “Come celebrate with us and the kitties! We also have an important goal to bring together 100 people to support animals in need. Every gift, large or small, makes a big difference on GiveBIG day.”
