Are you tired? Stressed out? Craving some cuddle therapy with a lapful of kittens or puppies? Portland Animal Rescue Connection invites you to relax and recharge at Kittens, Puppies + Beer at Baerlic Brewing in Southeast Portland!

At this heartwarming, all-ages event, guests can snuggle adorable rescued puppies and kittens from two incredible, local animal rescues: Sacred Pawz and Furry Friends. Fall in love? You’ll have the opportunity to submit an adoption application right on the spot. Enhance your relaxation with one of Baerlic’s award-winning beers or a hearty slice of Ranch Pizza for the perfect afternoon.

All proceeds from snuggle sessions, along with 10% of the day’s beer sales, directly benefit the three featured nonprofit organizations. Snuggles are available for a $5 minimum donation per person for five minutes, payable by cash, credit card, or Apple Pay.

Important Notes:

Snuggle sessions are first-come, first-served. To ensure we can accommodate you and your group, we recommend arriving near the event start time.

Each rescue’s adoption policies apply: cats may be adopted and taken home at the end of the event once an application is approved, while dog adoptions will be completed offsite at a later time. Thank you for understanding!
