What: Tree House Animal Foundation’s Stray Cat Strut is a 5-mile Walk to raise awareness of pet overpopulation, Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and the need for people to choose adoption over pet stores and breeders. The money raised will not only help support Tree House residents, but will also help us reach out to and educate the community about the pressing issue of stray overpopulation and the ways to combat the problem. Please help us turn Chicago into a no-kill city!
The Walk is followed by a week-long Adopt-A-Thon. We encourage everyone who is considering adopting a cat, to visit either of our shelters and see our wonderful cats during the Adopt-A-Thon.
Where: The Stray Cat Strut will begin at our Main Shelter (1212 W. Carmen Ave) and end at our Bucktown Branch (1629 N. Ashland Ave). There will be pit-stops along the way to rest, re-fuel, and use facilities.
When:Date: The Walk takes place on Sunday, May 4th, 2008. The Adopt-A-Thon takes places from Sunday, May 4th to Saturday, May 10th.
Time: Be ready to walk at 10 a.m! Following the Walk, there will be refreshments and an open house at the Bucktown Branch until 2 p.m.
