The operators of the Seymour Animal Shelter hope to raise $4,000 tonight (April 29) with a fundraising wine tasting event — money that will be used to buy cat cages.
“We have no cat cages, and can’t take cats,” said Deborah Ice, the animal control officer, who said she is interested in a feral cat program.
The money from the benefit will allow that to happen, she said.
The wine tasting runs from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at J.R. Sullivan’s, 557 Wakelee Avenue, Ansonia. Tickets are $25 at the door.
“This is our first one,” Ice said of the fundraiser.
A disc jockey will play music at the event.
