GET DIRECTIONS

The dogs have had their day, and DCHS cats are taking over this year's Bark & Wine!

Our fine felines want to welcome you to the shelter, tell you some happy tales, and show you a night you won’t forget in nine lifetimes! Your support makes a big difference in the lives of thousands of animals, all while enjoying tasty treats by Chef Oscar Villarreal of Migrants and Calliope ice cream. We ask that guests (feline and human) kindly DON'T push your wineglass off the table!

Don’t tell the cats, but we’ll have puppy greeters too!

6:00-7:00 pm—VIP(urr) Hour
7:00-9:00 pm—General Admission
