Valentine's Day often starts early for our felines, the precious pets we want to spoil with all sorts of adorable gifts, from bright red collars to rose-hued pillows to pretty pink treats.
But the February holiday is also an important one for cat rescue in Los Angeles, specifically the Kitty Bungalow Charm School for Wayward Cats.

The group has been on the local cat-aiding scene for several years, helping in the process of TNR — Trap Neuter Return — for thousands of felines.
To help make that work possible, there is the Heart-Shaped Hairball, Kitty Bungalow's annual fundraiser. And while the sweet celebration has a Valentine's-ready name, the party will pad into our cat-loving worlds on Thursday, Feb. 8.
It's for feline-ists who are 21 or older — a drink ticket is included with admission — and a vegan dinner will be served, too.

A raffle, games, and chances to cuddle with on-site cuties are also part of the feel-good merriment. Oh yes: Your own furry ones should stay home, but you will get the chance to snuzzle with a few whiskery guests while at the bash.
