Save the date! The next Paws & Purrsonality dinner and auction gala will take place on Oct. 25, 2025, at the Salem Convention Center, where over 200 animal lovers will come together to support Friends of Felines' mission of providing vital services to felines and their human companions throughout the Willamette Valley. At last year's event, we raised over $93,000 for the organization's programs like the Community Medical Fund and Spay it Forward, as well as the general medical fund. It takes $15,000 per month ($180,000 per year!) to cover the cost of medical supplies, professional services, labs, and diagnostic services for the cats in our care.

Since opening our doors in 1994, we have found homes for over 20,000 cats and kittens. And since opening our low cost spay and neuter clinic in late 2021, we have also performed over 10,000 lifesaving surgeries. Without the generosity of our supporters, we could not perform these vital services. An example of this is the story of Mason, featured at our gala in 2023. To see how far we've come since our founding in 2004, our 2024 video tells that story.
