If your New Year’s resolution involves more reading, more cuddles, or adopting a furry friend, then mark your calendar for Saturday, January 4, 2025. The Corona Public Library will become a haven of whiskers and wonder from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM PST as it hosts the “Reading With Kittens” adoption event. This is not your average library day—prepare for an afternoon filled with books, kittens, and a whole lot of adorable chaos here in Corona, California.
A Room Full of Kittens? Yes, Please!
Picture this: a cozy “Kitten Cuddle Room” where you can sit, read, and let playful kittens climb all over you. Whether you’re flipping through a mystery novel or reading aloud from your favorite childhood book, these tiny furballs will be your perfect audience. They don’t judge your reading skills—they’re just there for the snuggles and scratches.
The cuddle room is the heart of the event. It’s where kittens of all shapes and sizes will be ready to charm their way into your lap—and maybe even your home. If you’ve been thinking about adopting, this is the perfect chance to meet some potential new family members in a relaxed and fun setting.
Meet Ross, the Deaf Cat
Every event needs a star; this one has Ross—a deaf cat with a big personality. Ross will be roaming around, mingling with guests like the social butterfly (or should we say social tiger?) that he is. His calm demeanor and friendly nature make him an ambassador for all cats who might need a little extra love and understanding.
Ross isn’t just there to steal hearts; he’s also a reminder that special-needs pets can make wonderful companions. You might even snag a selfie with him if you’re lucky—though he may insist on being paid in head scratches.
Say Cheese! Photo Ops With Kittens
For just $5, you can immortalize your day with a framed photo featuring one of the kittens. Whether you’re holding a sleepy tabby or posing with a mischievous tuxedo cat trying to escape your arms, these photos are guaranteed to make you smile every time you look at them. Plus, the donation goes directly to helping more kittens find loving homes.
The photo op setup is perfect for families, couples, or anyone who wants to show off their new furry friend on social media. Don’t forget to hashtag responsibly—these kittens deserve all the likes.
Fun for the Whole Family
This isn’t just an event for cat lovers—it’s also a great outing for kids. Coring activities will keep little ones entertained while you get your kitten fix. Who knows? Your child might even create their next masterpiece inspired by their new feline friends.
The library setting adds an extra layer of charm. It’s not every day that you can combine storytime with kitten playtime. Whether it’s Dr. Seuss or Shakespeare, everything sounds better when read aloud to an audience of purring kittens.
Why You Should Go
Let’s face it: life is better with cats. They’re cute, they’re funny, and they have an uncanny ability to make us feel better after a long day. The “Reading With Kittens” event offers a chance to experience all of that while supporting a good cause. Every kitten at the event is looking for their forever home, and every dollar raised helps more cats get the care they need.
So grab your favorite book (or pick one up at the library), bring your family or friends, and head to the Corona Public Library on January 4th. Whether you leave with a new pet or just some great memories (and maybe a framed photo), it’s bound to be an afternoon well spent.
