On Wednesday I posted about the Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends (AARF) benefit happening on Saturday, April 18th in Atlanta.

I wanted to let everyone know I will be attending the benefit and would really enjoy meeting some of the Atlantan Dogsters (the two-legged ones) out there.  It would be great to be able to put a face to some of the readers out there.

AARF is holding 219: The Show on April 18th

The art auction will feature 219 works from various Atlanta-area artists. Each piece will represent one dog or cat that will have lost his or her life in a county shelter that day. The art will be sold in both silent and live auctions, with all proceeds going to AARF’s rescue, spay and neuter and education programs. The organization’s fundraising goal for the event is to generate enough to support the rescue every pet that would die in the course of one day in metro Atlanta.

Go to the original article to get all the details about the show and to find out how to get tickets.  Come out to support a great cause and fun while you’re doing it.  Hope to see you there!

* The artwork covers a wide range of subjects , it is work being donated by local artists.

Calling all animal lovers and rock music aficionados to come support Rational Animal’s eagerly awaited third annual Gimme Shelter: Rock & Rescue NYC benefit concert.

This rocking event takes place on Monday, October 6 at the Highline Ballroom. Located at 371 West 16th Street in Manhattan’s fashionable Chelsea district.

Join honorary chairperson Debbie Harry, MCs Chi Chi Valenti and DJ Johnny Dynell, and guest hosts Beastie Boy Adrock and Gina Gershon for an evening of music and entertainment with a purpose: to raise money for animal rescue groups that are working to save lives and create brighter futures for New York City’s homeless animals.

This year’s ten beneficiary groups all are members of the Mayor’s Alliance for NYC’s Animals. They include A Cause for Paws, Adopt-A-Dog, Anjellicle Cats Rescue, Bobbi and the Strays, Linda’s Feral Cat Assistance, Loving Touch, Metropolitan Maltese Rescue, Rawhide Rescue, Spay Neuter Intervention Project (SNIP), and Tiny Treasures Rescue. The ASPCA, an Alliance founding member, is one of the event sponsors.

“Our goal at Rational Animal is to end euthanasia of healthy and treatable animals,” says Susan Brandt, Rational Animal’s founder. Gimme Shelter is a rockin’ way to spread our message, and we’re thrilled that this community of fellow artists and animal lovers have donated their time and talents to the cause.”

Wow, not only do they have an impressive musical line-up,  they also have an amazing list of worthy beneficiaries. Go enjoy a fun filled evening knowing your contribution (tickets start at $50) goes to some topnotch causes.
