About Our Auction
Ohio Alleycat Resource & Spay/Neuter Clinic is pleased to announce our 2025 Wine for Whiskers Event, Online Auction and Fundraiser!
Since we sold out our first Wine for Whiskers event last year, we are upgrading our location and hosting a bigger and better event for 2025. Join us at Alfio's Buon Cibo in Hyde Park Square on Sunday April 13, 2025 from 6:30-9:00 PM. We will be Drinking Wine and Feline Fine!
Tickets are $50 each and include (5) 3-ounce Italian and Argentinian wine pours, light bites from Alfio’s Buon Cibo, Smain Hospitality, Mad Cheese and Juniper Seed, plus our gratitude. You will also be eligible to win one of our Door Prizes.
Are you Feline Lucky? During our event, you will have two fun opportunities. First is our Cork Pull ($25 each), sponsored by The Wine Cellar Outlet, with a chance to win a $50 gift card to Unwind Wine Bar & Light Fare. And new this year is our Lucky Wheel ($5) where you can win fun prizes like cat baseball hats, cat artwork, the chance to name a cat or kitten, and many other items. To make it easier for you and us, you can purchase these in advance on our event page when you purchase your event tickets.

About Ohio Alleycat Resource and Spay/Neuter Clinic
Ohio Alleycat Resource & Spay/Neuter Clinic (OAR) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to creating a progressive, compassionate community where cats can live their best lives. For over 25 years, we’ve worked to enrich the bond between cats and the people who care for them by providing affordable, high-quality services and support in an inclusive environment.
Originally founded as O’Bryonville Animal Rescue to address the needs of feral and community cats, we’ve grown into a vital resource for Greater Cincinnati. Today, our Madisonville-based facility offers:
Low-cost spay/neuter services for pets and community cats,
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs to humanely manage community cat populations
Inclusive Adoption services, matching cats with loving families
Outreach, education, and support to empower cat caregivers
At OAR, we believe every cat deserves safety, health, and happiness—and every community thrives when people and pets are supported. Together, we’re building a brighter future for cats and their people.
