BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) — The Cat People Sanctuary invited the community to its “Picnic on the Patio” event, a fundraiser aimed at replenishing the organization’s medical fund for rescued cats. The event was Saturday, May 10, 2025, at the sanctuary located at 4120 East Drive, just off Fairhaven Drive.
The Cat People Sanctuary is not a typical shelter. “Our resident felines are typically rescues from life-threatening situations who need medical treatment and rehabilitation before they can be adopted to new homes,” the organization said. The fundraiser is crucial as “often, that care is ongoing.”
Visitors got to enjoy a visit to the Cat Cottage from 11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m., where they spent quality time with the sanctuary’s feline residents, and meet fellow cat enthusiasts…
