October 29 is National Cat Day which aims to spread awareness about cat adoption. We’re celebrating with our first ever Trivia Night and a bunch of ridiculous cat-centric festivities!
Trivia
Teams of 6 or less
Email [email protected] to reserve a table ahead of time, otherwise check-in starts at 6:45pm for 7pm start.
Bonus point for your team for wearing cat themed apparel or a cat costume
Scavenger Hunt – Win the Grand Prize!
Since National Cat Day is October 29th, we’re giving away a pass worth TWENTY NINE cat lounge reservations. 🙀🙀🙀
The Hunt will be from 2pm-10pm @The Scratching Post on Wednesday, October 29th. Take a pic of each clue you find. If you manage to get through all 10 clues, send the pics to [email protected] by 10pm. A winner will be randomly drawn from anyone who completes the hunt…but it won’t be easy!
First Clue: (The answer won’t be placed until 2pm on 10/29, so cool your jets and quit trying to start early.)
Play by the rules to protect this ancient feline race. With a view of the moon and stars, your boat will avoid Darkhand and dock in the next safe space.
