Mark your calendars for the biggest event of the year:

Purr-fect Silent Auction Item Basket Ideas

Fur Ball is upon us and we can barely contain our excitement!  Will hope to see you Saturday, March 14th at The Great Catsby for a night of food, fun, and excitement!  Best of all?  All proceeds from this gala event fundraiser go directly towards the nearly 6,000 animals in our care at the Cheyenne Animal Shelter!

If you can’t attend this year but still want to show your support, please consider putting together a basket of goodies for our silent auction!  Every dollar raised from this silent auction counts, as it is used to buy essential items such as milk for our kittens or life-saving vaccines for our puppies.  Stumped for basket ideas?  Never fear – our Marketing Director has put together a handy list of basket themes!  Check them out below!  If you are kind enough to put together a basket, you can either bring it out to the Cheyenne Animal Shelter or we would be more than happy to pick it up from you!  Please contact either our Donations Coordinator (Karen Staples) at 307-271-5962 or at [email protected], or our Marketing Director (Haylee Chenchar) at 307-278-6195 or at [email protected] and we can coordinate a time to pick up your very generous contribution.  As always, thank you so much for your support of the Cheyenne Animal Shelter.  Our animals (and our staff) so appreciate you!
