The Palmerton Cat Project will host its third annual craft and vendor event on Saturday.

The event will be held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Aquashicola Fire Company.

There will be 15 vendors selling various products such as wreaths, wood crafts, baked goods, dog and cat treats, pampered chef, purses, kitchen towels, dog and cat ornaments, tumblers, charcuterie cheese boards, laser engraved items and more. Sleepy Cat Urban Winery will also be on hand. The kitchen will be open.

There will be a basket raffle with about 45 to 50 items offered, including Longenberger baskets, 50/50 drawing, and a soup sale.

The soup sale will be in to-go containers. Soups offered include New England clam chowder, lobster bisque, chicken noodle, broccoli and cheddar, taco soup, navy bean soup, beef stew, chicken and rice soup, and vegetable barley soup.

The event will also include a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus for photos with kids. The price is $10 for a 4x6 photo.

The Palmerton Cat Project will also be selling hoodie sweatshirts, T-shirts, Gertrude Hawk Candy, lanyards and cat beanies.

Dave Matsinko will be on hand to provide musical entertainment.

In addition, the Palmerton Cat Project will have its wish list collection, and encourages guests to bring an item off their wishlist so they can be entered into a drawing to win a gift card basket. Needed items include Purina Cat Chow and Kitten Chow, cat litter, paper towels, garbage bags, Lysol wipes, and laundry detergent.

The Palmerton Cat Project is an organization working to spay and neuter feral cat colonies and get kittens and abandoned cats adopted.

“This event is very important because the money raised will help with the medical expenses, food and litter to care for hundreds of cats and kittens each year,” said Stacy Goldberg, vice president, Palmerton Cat Project. “This year, medical has been a very significant expense, especially with the cruelty case we were involved with housing 15 of the 26 cats rescued, (with) medical, litter and food being the major expenses.”

“Palmerton Cat Project is asking for the community to come out and support us and the vendors who are there to support our event,” Goldberg said. “Every donation, every purchase helps us to save one cat at a time, and that changes that cat’s whole world.”
