PAWS TO CELEBRATE
Animal Welfare League of New London County is having a holiday fundraiser Sat., 11/16, 9 a.m.- 3 p.m. & Sun., 11/17, 11 a.m.- 3 p.m. at Boilermakers Lodge 614, 33 Sacred Heart Drive, in Groton. Our Paws to Celebrate celebrates 50 years of assistance to companion animals!
We'll have: pawsitively purrfect adoptables; holiday baked goods; and a silent auction. Try a Buy-a-Bone Chance on a basket of goodies; get a ‘fluffing’ by a talented crew that do hair braiding/nail art; and pick up some Xmas treasures on our resale tables.
Meet Donna Velardi, an animal communicator, and find out about your pets past; have your companion animal microchipped with a Home Again microchip for $20 (this includes the registration cost); and, please, bring donations for our pet food drive. There are many animal families in need in Southeastern CT--- please help keep them together this holiday season!
During our Paws to Celebrate you’ll meet AWL' s Ambass-A-Dogs Jasmine and Gracie. And, Compassion for Cats of N.L. County, Phoenix Rising Equine Rescue and pound dogs will be there looking to go Home for the Holidays.

Please make ADOPTION YOUR FIRST OPTION this season. By opening your heart and home to a homeless pet in need you can save their life. The second chance once given, the compassion and love you offer them will come back to you as unconditional love.
