Fur Ball Gala & Auction  – Press Kit

Thank you for helping to spread the word about our upcoming Fur Ball, on April 18, 2026.

Homeward Pet’s Fur Ball is a celebration for the animals. A group of like minded guests come together to support the care and adoption of the homeless cats and dogs in our community.

With delicious food and wines, silent and live auctions, fun raffles and games and appearances by Homeward Pet dogs and cats, the Fur Ball promises to be an unforgettable evening. Put on your cocktail attire and enjoy a night for the animals!

As one of the largest no-kill animal shelters in Washington, Homeward Pet cares for more than 1500 cats and dogs each year. The Fur Ball is a chance to revisit some of our happiest “tails” and to give you the opportunity to help continue our mission.
