No pricey wristband needed for KittyPalooza on Saturday
Wednesday, July 19, 2023 by Eric Webb
A name like KittyPalooza begs explanation. So, here it is: The Austin Animal Center on Tuesday announced its 14th annual musical festival-themed adoption event for foster kittens. “You may see old favorites like Simon & Purr-funkle, Meowrah Carey and The Notorious C.A.T., and some of the hottest artists like Kitty Minaj, Mike Pawsner and Purrell Williams,” reads a news release that we couldn’t resist quoting. All kittens at the event will be spayed or neutered, microchipped and vaccinated, and adoption fees will be waived. KittyPalooza will take place from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday at Austin Animal Center (7201 Levander Loop). Get more info at the city’s website.
