Crush Cocktails and FoodCaturday Visiting Hours at Tenth Life Cat Rescue
Caturday Visiting Hours at Tenth Life Cat Rescue offers time in the adoption lounge with cats of many ages and personalities, whether you are considering adoption or simply want cuddles. A $10 donation covers cat time during the open window, supports Tenth Life's work, and helps make these visiting hours possible. Capacity is limited. Walk-ins may be accommodated if space allows but are not guaranteed. An RSVP, or a $10 donation with a walk-in, is required to visit with the cats, while stopping by for resources, questions, or to drop off donations does not require one. The lounge is family friendly. Guests under 18 must be with a parent or legal guardian, with a maximum of two children per adult, and every guest needs a ticket. Nearby street parking is available, metered and unmetered. Printed tickets are not required because names can be looked up on arrival. All ticket sales are final, though tickets may be transferred to a friend. Since 2009, Tenth Life has provided veterinary care, foster homes, and adoptive placement for stray cats and kittens, prioritizing those with special needs or injuries, and works to reduce unnecessary euthanasia and cat homelessness through education, community programs, and partnerships. Events are indoors, ADA compliant, wheelchair accessible, and near public transit, with chairs available. If individual assistance such as an aide or sign language interpreter is needed, advance notice allows time to locate a volunteer. All visitors will be asked to sign a waiver upon arrival, and this series may be professionally photographed for Tenth Life marketing.
