(LONG BEACH ISLAND, NJ) -- On Thursday, December 15th the Lighthouse International Film Society presents a screening of the documentary, Cat Daddies at Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts & Sciences,  120 Long Beach Blvd, Loveladies, NJ.  This is a heartwarming and tender portrait of a diverse group of men whose lives have been forever changed by their love of cats. Showtime is 7:30pm.

Cat Daddies takes us on an inspiring journey across the United States during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic when people desperately needed hope and companionship.

These nine “cat dads” come from all walks of life – a firefighter, a truckdriver, a Hollywood stuntman, an ad executive turned cat rescuer, a police officer, a software engineer, an actor/Instagram influencer, a schoolteacher, and an undocumented and disabled immigrant living on the streets of New York City. 

The nine couldn’t be any more different, but each of them has a compelling story to tell and share an unconditional love for their beloved cats.

A refreshing and timely exploration of modern masculinity, Cat Daddies shows us how being a “cat person” has no gender, and that the unlikely bond between man and cat is here to stay.

The screening is sponsored by Buddy’s Pet Stop of Beach Haven
