On Sunday,
March 14, over 250
attendees and more than 100 volunteers made
"Canines on the Catwalk"
a successful
anniversary celebration of the
Animal Lifeline
Thrift
Shop!
We had such high hopes
for the day, but we'd never done anything like
this before (has anyone?!) and knew we couldn't be
sure what the day would be like until it was
over! A fashion show featuring thrift
shop clothing? Volunteer models? Escorted by
dogs?
It was a BLAST!
We've heard from so many people who enjoyed
attending a fundraiser that was really FUN!
Thank you so much for all your positive comments
and suggestions on how to make our next event even
better!
There is no way to fully
express thanks to everyone who volunteered for
"Canines on the Catwalk". This was a massive
undertaking and it could not have been done
without help from many hands. On the actual
day of the event, I should have given a shout-out
to Krista Anthony, who coordinated all those great
looks you saw on the runway. Several people
pulled fashions from the store in addition to
Krista, but she was the one who supervised the
fitting sessions and put it all together, which
makes sense because her business, A Fresh Look for You, is all
about restyling your own wardrobe, closet
organization and personal shopping. And we
were lucky enough to have her on our team! Our
crowd definitely approved of Krista's selections,
too, because we
sold almost every piece of thrift shop clothing
that came down the runway!
Thanks to the many of
you who came out and made "Canines on the Catwalk"
such a successful and spirit-lifting day! We
look forward to letting you know what Animal
Lifeline will do with all the funds raised in
celebration of the 1st Anniversary of the Animal
Lifeline Thrift Shop!
Yours in
Rescue,
Denise

NECESSITIES! |
|
We could use paper towels and bleach. We also
acknowledge that kitten season is beginning, and while
we don't plan to keep any at the store,
life very rarely goes according to plan. So we'd
also like to have kitten
food and newspaper or pine kitty
litter on hand (the clumping clay variety isn't
the safest choice for kittens' tiny heinies).
As
always, thank you
for continuing to provide much-needed
supplies!

Kitten Season is Upon
Us!
The
Animal Lifeline Thrift Shop functions best when our
limited number of volunteers are able to focus on
merchandise and don't have to spend time scooping kitty
litter and cleaning cat food bowls. But at this
time of year, the kittens begin to appear and we already
have a couple of cuties in need of
homes!We
have several foster home options when a dog needs
temporary placement, but only ONE feline foster
home. If you think you might be able to help out
and would enjoy some cuddle time with kittens or an
adult cat in need of more attention than we can give
here in the store setting, please contact Laurie to learn more about
a few feline foster home
requirements.
And
if you just can't resist this cute pair of kitty
paws,
send your name, phone, and veterinarian
contact info
and we'll arrange for you to meet
Cole & Roman
(currently staying at that one and
only feline foster
home)!
 
  
If
a more sedate adult cat
would be a better fit for
you,
stop by the store to meet Leon, Chloe or Bella
--
all three are easy-going, affectionate
and
full of
personality!
