SOLD OUT! Join us for an unforgettable evening at Fur Ball 2025! As one of our valued supporters, you know that Fur Ball is not just our most important fundraising event, it is also the most exciting and meaningful night of the year. Enjoy an elegant evening with gourmet food and wine, exclusive silent and live auction items, and the company of fellow VIP shelter donors, all while supporting homeless and unwanted pets in our community.
This year’s theme, "The Great Catsby," promises a night of roaring fun and glamour. The event will take place on Friday, May 16, 2025, from 5:30 - 9:00 PM at Chico Hot Springs & Day Spa. As an intimate event with limited seating, Fur Ball tables are always in high demand and sell out quickly to our Business Partners and most loyal supporters. Pricing is $1,200 per table or $180 individual tickets.
In addition to attending, you can support Fur Ball by donating to our auction. We are accepting items such as antiques, heirlooms, and business contributions to help raise crucial funds for the shelter. If you would like to donate, please contact our Executive Director, Carissa Walsh, at cwalsh@staffordanimalshelter.org or (406) 222-1311. The deadline for auction contributions is April 25, 2025.
