A kitty party invitation tells members where this month’s kitty is, when to arrive, what to wear and what to pay. The best ones are short, playful and sent early enough for everyone to plan an outfit. Below are 24 kitty party invitation messages, 15 theme ideas and 12 games that work for groups of 8 to 25, plus a simple running order for the afternoon.
What is a kitty party?
A kitty party is a regular get-together, usually monthly, where each member puts a fixed amount into a common pool (the “kitty”). Each month one member receives the pool, by a draw or by turn, and hosting usually rotates. Kitties are best known as women’s social groups in Indian cities, but couples’ kitties, office kitties and neighbourhood kitties are common too. The money is the excuse; the games, food and catching up are the point.
What to include in a kitty party invitation
- Date, start time and end time: most kitties run from late morning to mid-afternoon.
- Host and venue, with a map link if it’s a café or a new address.
- Theme and dress code for the month.
- The contribution amount and how to pay it.
- What’s planned: games, tambola, lunch and the draw.
- What to bring, if anything, and a reply-by date.
