Dine Fur Pets at Paolo’s Fundraiser with Berks ARL

By Callie, Seymour, Yebba & Mama — The Stray Cat News Crew 😻

Listen, hoomans — we love when you feed us. But this time, it’s your turn to grab a fork and make a difference.

On Thursday, November 13, 2025 from 4 PM to 9 PM, our pals at Paolo’s Restaurant & Bar (2480 Lancaster Pike, Reading PA 19607) are hosting a Dine Fur Pets Fundraiser to benefit the Animal Rescue League of Berks County (ARL).

Here’s the purrfect part: 15 % of every food sale during the event goes directly toward helping animals in need — like the once-homeless, now-spoiled authors of this very article. 🐾

How to Support the Berks ARL

Here’s how you can help our rescue friends and score dinner bragging rights:

• Dine In or Takeout: Bring a physical copy of the official flyer so Paolo’s staff can attach it to your receipt.

• Online Orders: Mention the ARL fundraiser at pickup — and bring your flyer if possible.

• Bonus Move: Snap a pic of your meal and tag @arlofberks and @StrayCatNews to spread the love (and drool).

When you show up at Paolo’s Dine Fur Pets, you’re not just ordering pasta — you’re joining a mission to feed, heal, and home every abandoned animal in Berks County PA. Every bite you take helps fund rescue work, vaccine clinics, and the adoption programs that gave so many cats like us a second chance.

That’s the kind of community magic we can all raise a paw to.

Wise Words of Encouragement

Take it from me — a cat who’s seen both the streets and a memory-foam bed — acts of kindness create ripples. 🐈‍⬛

So, grab your friends, your appetite, and your flyer, and head to Paolo’s on November 13. Let your meal mean something. Let your fork change a life.
