Join us TOMORROW for a free Community Meal at The Briar! Donations and bar proceeds will benefit Brook’s Misfit Garage of Kitties. Brook is a valued member of The Briar team who also has a huge heart for animals. Out of her and her partner Scott’s garage runs Misfit Garage of Kitties, a small cat rescue and warming house dedicated to caring for cats in need.

Many of the cats Brook and Scott care for find their way to the garage on their own. Most are feral or stray cats with nowhere else to go. They provide food, shelter, veterinary care, and spay and neuter services. During Minnesota’s cold winters, they also maintain warming houses to give outdoor and feral cats a warm, protected place to escape the elements.

If you can’t make the meal but want to support Brook’s cat rescue, you can pre-purchase a shirt for pickup at the next Community Meal on November 3rd. Purchase here → https://www.briarbar.com/store/p/misfit-garage-kitty-shirt

Tuesday, Oct 7, 5:30 - 8:30 pm, we're hosting a fundraiser and free community meal for our friend Brook, who is taking care of many stray kitties, including cute lil guy Oreo (photo in the comments), who just had major surgery and needs some extra support. If you can't stay for the meal, you can purchase a misfit kitty tee for just $25 on our website!

Support the Brook’s kitty rescue and purchase a shirt! All the profits will go towards getting feral cats spay/neuter, feeding, and warming houses. This is a pre-order for the t-shirt shown and will be available for pick up at our next community meal - November 3rd, 5:30pm - 8:30pm. **B rook is a

Did you know we have 34 total cat pieces in The Briar building? We're cat lovers, its true! ♡ Next Tuesday we're opening our doors to raise mondey for our dear friend Brooke's cat Oreo (slide 2).

This sweety has falling-chest kitten syndrome, some other chronic issues and he just had a major surgery a few days ago. He's just one of a couple of kitties that Brooke cares for and we want to support them with a community meal.
