WHAT: Palm Beach County Animal Care & Control and Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League are joining North Shore Animal League America, and more than 500 shelter partners across the country, to celebrate Hallmark Channel’s Kitten Bowl V game with a Kitten Bowl Party event. The highlight is finding homes for adoptable cats and kittens as well as dogs and puppies on Saturday, February 3rd and Sunday, February 4th. In addition to showing Hallmark Channel’s Kitten Bowl V showdown on Sunday, there will be fun giveaways.
Kitten Bowl is the greatest feline football showdown in cable television history and has resulted in over 10,000 adoptions to date. The competition will be hosted by North Shore Animal League America’s Volunteer, Foster mom and National Spokesperson, Beth Stern, who will be joined by actress, director, and author, Alison Sweeney, actor, producer and television host, Dean Cain, and four-time Pro Bowl quarterback and Feline Football League Commissioner (FFL) Boomer Esiason to capture every adorable moment of fleet-footed, fur-flying kitten play-off. Kitten Bowl V will premiere Su-PURR Bowl Sunday, February 4, 2018 (12 p.m. ET/PT) on Hallmark Channel.
North Shore Animal League America and its participating shelter partners across the country will once again be hosting Kitten Bowl Parties with free giveaways featuring Kitten Bowl trading cards.
All of the players in the actual Kitten Bowl competition have found loving homes through Hallmark Channel’s partnership with North Shore Animal League America – the world’s largest no-kill, rescue, and animal adoption organization. However, there are plenty of fabulous felines at your local shelter waiting to find their new, loving homes.
