Tails of the Painted Cats

Tails of the Painted Cats (TOPC) is one of Cat Care Society’s largest fundraisers of the year. This upscale biennial event features a gala dinner and auction where attendees can sip cocktails, browse and bid on cat-themed art, listen to soothing piano music, participate in fun games, treat themselves to dinner and dessert, and mingle with other cat lovers and volunteers—all while supporting Colorado’s artist community and raising money for Cat Care Society to continue its mission.

For our 10th anniversary, we’re thrilled to return to the elegant Pinehurst Country Club, which will feature a masquerade theme! Guests are encouraged to dress to impress and wear a mask if they’d like, adding a festive, mysterious flair to the evening.

For each event, numerous artists donate their time and talents to creating beautiful, hand-crafted sculptures and paintings. The “painted cats” are the stars of the show—but don’t worry, we don’t paint live cats! These large fiberglass cat-shaped creations, along with “flat cat” paintings and unique pottery, will be available for bidding and purchase.

Community members can cast their vote for their favorite painted cat. One select artist and creation will be named People’s Choice!
