It's something gaining popularity in bigger cities but now Weyburnites will get a chance to experience a cat cafe.

It's not only a new thing for Weyburn it's also a fundraiser for the local Humane Society.

"At this event refreshments are served. There's also a chance for a cat cake and cat coffee mug you can win," shared Weyburn Humane Society President Pam Arndt-Schick. "So, if anybody has a free afternoon to come snuggle cats and hopefully find one that fits in their family that's great so come on out."

She said admittance to the event is a freewill offering, which will go towards the animal shelter.

It's taking place on Sunday, March 10 from 2 to 4 p.m. at Microtel.
