Lynnwood, WALocal News

The 27th Annual Black Cat Ball Gala Auction will take place on October 25, 2025, at the Lynnwood Event Center, celebrating the mission of Purrfect Pals Cat Sanctuary. Established in 1988 by Kathy Centala, this no-kill shelter prioritizes the care and love of cats with special needs, including seniors and those with medical or behavioral challenges. The gala features a champagne reception, gourmet dinner options, and silent and live auctions, making it a festive yet purposeful evening. This event is crucial for fundraising, directly benefiting over 100 cats that call the sanctuary home. Community involvement, through generous sponsors and donors, ensures that the majority of funds raised go directly to the cats’ care.

The sanctuary emphasizes that every cat deserves love and a forever home, regardless of their challenges. Attendees can take advantage of Early Bird pricing for tickets until the end of September, which helps secure their participation. Mark your calendars for this impactful occasion that combines celebration with a commitment to vulnerable cats.
