The Fur Ball is a gala evening that celebrates the life-saving work of our organization as well as other local animal organizations. It includes a strolling cocktail reception, a sumptuous multiple-course plated dinner, live music, dancing and memorable silent and live auctions. The event attracts more than 250 animal lovers from all walks of life— community leaders, business owners, corporate executives, animal-sheltering innovators—joining “paws” to make a difference. Be a part of the Fur Ball!
Bowl-4-Animal Rescue returns on Saturday, August 14, 2021 from 7pm to 10:30pm at Country Lanes in Farmington Hills, located at 30250 W 9 Mile Road, west of Middlebelt Road.
“We are ecstatic for the return of this event after a long pandemic. If you love animals, this event will be right up your alley!” said Michelle Mullen.
Non-bowlers are always welcome. Animals don’t care if you are a good bowler, a bad bowler or no bowler at all! There is a cash bar, delicious food, great music and many amazing raffles and auction prizes.
The event has grown significantly over the years. In the first 14 years, Bowl-4-Animal Rescue (along with its partner event The Fur Ball) has raised over $760,000!
