Hollywood legend Doris Day is 96 years young and looking absolutely adorable in a new portrait by John Castro for People magazine (above). Bless her heart, she’s been retired from acting since 1973 and lives quietly in her adopted hometown of Carmel-by-the-sea, California. A giant weekend birthday bash is scheduled there to help raise funds for her pet cause: the Doris Day Animal Foundation.

“I am blessed with good health and so fortunate to be surrounded by loving friends and fans who have traveled so far to help raise money for the precious four-leggers,” Day told PEOPLE. “It means a great deal to me and I am so grateful for their support.”

According to People:

The festivities began on March 29 with a fan-run bingo night at the Cypress Inn, which featured Doris Day-themed bingo led by Jackie Joseph, who costarred with Day in the 1968 movie With Your Six You Get Eggroll and, later on, The Doris Day Show. Then, on Friday, singer Scott Dreier performed some of Day’s hit songs.

The weekend will wrap up Saturday with a screening of With Six You Get Eggroll followed by a Q&A with Day’s co-stars John Findlater, Jimmy Bracken and Jackie Joseph.

All proceeds from Day’s birthday weekend celebration benefit the Doris Day Animal Foundation, which the actress founded in 1978 to rescue and protect animals.
