Welcome to CAToberfest 2021! This is our 14th Annual Feline Festival and Fundraiser. Whether you are a first-time guest or one of our regular supporters, we are so glad you are here! While we prefer to see you in person, we are pleased that even in these challenging times, we can still get together for a good cause!
List of CAToberfest Event Activities
- Online Auction and Market Place – Generous donations turned into auction packages that you will LOVE, plus a section of the auction contains great deals on ‘buy it now’ items. Auction and marketplace winners will receive information after closing Saturday at 9:00 p.m. about picking up their items in Renton Sunday, October 17 - Wednesday, October 20.
- EduCATion – Articles and videos to help you with your cat(s) and/or cats in the community.
- South County Cats – The link to our general website tells you more about our mission.
CAToberfest began in recognition of National Feral Cat Day, which was celebrated on October 16 and was described simply as ‘a Celebration of Cats’! While that would still be appropriate, we now describe it as a ‘Feline Festival and Fundraiser’ in recognition of what is now Global Cat Day on October 16. What has not changed is the two-fold goal of the event BOTH to raise funds and to provide community education. You will notice some event features that are not related to fundraising, such as EduCATion (Speakers at our live event) and Kids’ Activities. These are intended to share information that will become useful to you or to cats in our community. Of course, that includes information about the health and well-being of cats, the importance of spay and neuter, the plight of homeless, community cats and the purpose of TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return).
Thank you for being here and please enjoy CAToberfest!
