Known for his Animal Planet show, "My Cat From Hell," Galaxy has gained a cult-like following regarding all things feline and has authored four books about cat behavior and health.
Attendees at the dinner will be able to hang out with other cat-people, try furbulous cocktails, enjoy a meal together and listen to a presentation by Galaxy.
The event will be held at the Michigan League Ballroom and will celebrate the accomplishments of the HSHV, community support for the Humane Society and, of course, animals.
