The event will take place on Thursday, October 24 at the White Room in downtown St. Augustine. Festivities include dinner, music by the House Cats Quartet, a wine tasting and complimentary wine. The calendar, which features local pets, will be available for purchase at the event and each guest will receive a copy.

“We are thrilled to unveil this year’s Pin Up Paws calendar,” said Carolyn Sindad Smith, executive director of the St. Augustine Humane Society. “And while it’s adorable and fun, it supports a truly vital mission. Every penny raised helps us provide services, food, training and more to care for animals in need, prevent overpopulation and create responsible, lifelong pet guardians.”

The event will feature a silent auction, with online bidding beginning October 4 and continuing through November 2. The goal for this year’s Pin Up Paws auction is to raise $14,000. Items up for auction include guitars signed by Florida icon Jimmy Buffett and pop star Taylor Swift, as well as various other collectibles, gift cards and unique experiences.

The 2025 Pin Up Paws calendar features thirteen pets, including Katherine, a black and white tuxedo cat, who is on the cover for the second year in a row. The other twelve pets, including Cupcake, Lucy, Bix and Otis, represent each month of the year. All pets were photographed by award-winning photographer Addison Fitzgerald, with designs created by artist Maribel Angel.

“We would like to highlight one of our calendar winners, Sookie,” added Sindad Smith. “She was entered by a local rescue, Swamp Haven. Please consider giving this sweet senior pup a loving home.”

Tickets for the Pin Up Paws Party are $145 per person and can be purchased online. Proceeds from the party and auction will support the St. Augustine Humane Society’s efforts to promote lifelong pet ownership and provide medical and rehabilitation services to pets in the community.
