KittyPalooza celebrates 10th life
Friday, June 30, 2017 by Elizabeth Pagano
Looking for something to do on this holiday-ish weekend? The Austin Animal Center suggests attending the 10th annual “KittyPalooza,” which will take place from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday at the Austin Animal Center. If you missed it the first nine times, the event features waived adoption fees for all shelter pets and free spaying, neutering, microchipping and vaccinating for cats and dogs. There will also be a “cat talent show” featuring the “Foster Kittens.” We’ll let the animal center explain that: “From old favorites, like Simon & Purr-bunkle, Meowrah Carey and The Notorious C.A.T., to some of the hottest artists, like Kitty Minaj, Mike Pawsner and Purrell Williams. These talented felines are sure to put a song in your heart, and unlike most festivals, the shelter will make it easy to take your favorite artist or artists home with you.”
