Kitten Social

Wet Nose Bistro - 2520 Main St., Green Bay, WI

Mark your calendars! Join The Colony Cat Advocates for our very first Kitten Social hosted by our friends at Wet Nose Bistro! Come meet our adorable kittens who will be looking for their forever homes soon! Our team will be on-site accepting adoption applications and answering questions about our advocacy work in the community.

Adoption Policy Note: To ensure our kittens grow up happy, healthy, and well-socialized, we adopt out kittens in pairs or to homes with an existing young kitten who needs a wrestling partner!

Planning to adopt? To ensure the best match for our kittens, we don't complete same-day adoptions. Apply and get pre-approved before the event so you're one step closer to bringing your new kitten(s) home!

Whether you're looking to add to your family or just want to stop by and support local cat advocacy, we'd love to see you there!

Cocktails & Kitties
Spirit House · Menominee, MI · 2025
The inaugural Cocktails & Kitties kicked things off with an evening of craft cocktails, good conversation, and a room full of people who genuinely care about cats. It was our first time bringing the community together like this — and it set the tone for everything that followed.
Thank you to Spirit House and everyone who came out to make our first event something worth building on.
