Hats Off for the Paws: Furball 2025

March 8th @ 5:30pm

Get ready for a night of dressing up with great food, good drinks, fun entertainment, AND support a great cause while you’re at it!

Our annual Furball is March 8th at Riverside Golf Club. Tickets are $150/person, dinner included. Call CNHS at 308-385-5305 for more info and to reserver your seat!

Dress is semi-formal and this year's theme is Hats Off for the Paws, so don't forget to wear your best hat!

This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and its results drastically impact the number of animals we are able to save and care for every day. We can’t wait to see you all there!
