Catsino, a benefit event for Furry Faces Foundation, a local West Seattle animal welfare organization was held for the 2nd time at Beveridge Place Pub near the Morgan Street Junction.
Furry Faces Foundation staged their 2nd annual Catsino event at Beveridge Place Pub near the Morgan Street junction on Saturday November 14th and it was well attended.
Proceeds from the event go to benefit the organization which describes itself as "an animal loving, social group of folks whose motto is ‘having fun…while raising money for animals.’ "
They provide support for people who may need assistance to care for their companion animals, and in doing so, provide the community with a vehicle for compassionate social assistance.
This years event saw several hundred participants, who each paid the $25 entry fee to play a variety of imaginative casino style games all hosted by area businesses. Prizes, also donated by area businesses were awarded via a raffle system to those who, by the end of the event had amassed "Catsino Bucks" to buy lottery entry tickets.
