ONALASKA, Wis. (WXOW) – The Alliance of Wisconsin Animal Rehoming Efforts (AWARE) expanded its reach with the successful launch of Pet Expo LAX, an event aimed at supporting homeless animals in the region.
The expo featured dozens of booths of vendors showing off their animal-related products and services.
Cat lovers were treated to the “Purranormal Phenomenon” cat show, presented by the Windy Kitty Cat Club. The show featured both championship and household cats, with a variety of feline talent on display.
One of the organizers of the event says that events like these are helping the cats socialize, and a well socialized cat is a well behaved cat.
“We want to socialize the cats so that way when they go to new homes they are fully adaptable”, says Karly Chnupn, show runner. “We want to also make sure that cats are socialized when they go to vets because if there is an emergency and you have to handle a cat you want them to be able to be handled.”
AWARE, which has been supporting Wisconsin’s homeless animal population for 19 years.
