We are sorry if you missed our 25th Anniversary Whisker Wishes Gala on June 28th, 2025!
Following a seated, duo-entre' southwestern dinner, the record crowd heard stories of the (more than) 25 years of rescuing and caring for exotic cats. Founder and President Vicky Keahey shared "her version" of the story of how she first met Steve Stoler when he was a journalist with WFAA. Steve then shared his version of the story prior to sharing other notable stories from his book, "Tonight at Ten: A TV News Reporter's Stories Behind the Stories".
Steve then turned the microphone back over to Emcee and longtime friend Jobin Panicker, Emmy Winner and two time national Reporter of the Year by the National Press Photographer's Association. Jobin brought his own special touch to the evening by sharing his stories and passion of covering Vicky and In-Sync Exotics over the years while also reporting for WFAA.
Wes Pool of Murad Auction Services kicked off the fundraising with a very spirited game of Whiskers and Tails, followed by a live auction and wrapped up with a fund-a-need call to action and an exciting 'last hero standing' bidding war for two Southwest Airlines Ticket vouchers!
"I am overwhelmed by the support we've received from our donors and guests at our 25th anniversary celebration," said Vicky Keahey, founder of In-Sync Exotics. "I’m especially grateful to my family—Eddie Keahey, Justin Marshall, and my mom, Mary Jane Bowman—for standing by me from the very beginning. I also want to thank our dedicated staff, volunteers, and donors. Your belief in me is what kept me & In-Sync going all these years."
Thanks to YOU, we are excited to share that after expenses you have raised over $191,000 toward the care of the 80+ exotic and domestic animals that call In-Sync their forever home!
Of course there is still time to support In-Sync Exotics. Many of the exotic cats we rescue come from horrific conditions, and we are honored with the responsibility of (in many cases) bringing them back to life. We couldn't do it without your support.
Thanks to our amazing sponsors that were instrumental in the success of the event!
