Do you like fashion shows? How about kittens? What if we told you there was an event that combines the two? And it's for a good cause!
This Sunday (September 24th), The Cat's Meow Fashion Show will feature models strutting their stuff on the runway — showing off fashions provided by Threads boutique, and, you guessed it: kittens! This will be a catwalk if we've ever seen one.
The event is from 1 to 3 p.m. at Annesdale Mansion (1325 Lamar). Tickets are $25 (with a $5 discount available for tickets purchased before 8 p.m. on Friday, September 22nd).
Funds raised will benefit Memphis Pets Alive! (MPA), a nonprofit group focused on helping network, rescue, and adopt healthy, treatable shelter pets at risk of euthanasia. Proceeds from the event will be matched (up to $1,000) by the Community Cats Grant for which MPA is a recipient. The money will go directly toward the organization's TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) efforts in Memphis and Shelby County.
A Threads pop-up shop will be on site, and attendees are welcome to tour the historic mansion and enjoy cocktails and light refreshments.
