Happy Mardi Gras goes to the dogs…
I received the following event info from Lynn Morvant…
Krewe of Arfus Pet Parade
The Friends of the Jefferson Animal Shelter, the Jefferson Parish Animal Shelter and the Premier Metairie Carnival Parade, the Krewe of Argus are planning an Event on Sunday March 8th, 2009 at Zephyrs Stadium on Airline Drive in Metairie from 11am until 4pm.
‘Pet Gras’ will be the Pet/People Party that will focus on Adoption, Education & Information, the Krewe of Arfus Pet Parade, Vendors, Live Entertainment, Delicious Food and FUN!
The Krewe of ARFus Pet Parade will feature Rescue/Shelter Pets for Adoption and some of their Successful Adoptions, in their own Krewes, with their own Theme, as the Lead of the Parade. Then owned Pets will follow in the Celebration of our Companion Animals.
Pet Gras will have an ‘Adoption Promenade’ area where Rescues/Shelters can bring their Adoptable Pets, offer them for Adoption, share information about their Events and Fundraisers and proclaim The Wonderful Companions Rescue Pets will make.
If your pet rescue organization would like to be a part of Pet Gras and the Krewe of ARFus please check out the website kreweofarfus.org. Of course there are no fees for Rescue/Shelter Groups.
Here is the Krewe of Arfus Pet Parade event flier…
