Sounds like a wonderful event and a worthy cause. If we lived in Charlotte we would be there as animals and how they are treated is close to Annie's heart.

Nick Vandekar, 610-203-4543 hi Nick... Annie and I are totally aligned on this matter. The pet shelter cause is near and dear to my heart.

Hi Nina- what a fun event!!! Ghandi had it right!!! And, I must admit, though I shouldn't judge, but I am cautious around those who are not fond of animals. 

Apr 03, 2025 10:52 AM
Nina Hollander, Broker

Kathy Streib you can me both, Kathy! I'm always suspicious of people who say they don't like dogs or cats.

Nina, what fun this will be, and if you could stand and walk that far, bet you would be attending too.   I would probably bring the kitties in their stroller.

Joan Cox Bingo gets overly excited in these situations... so even if I could walk, I wouldn't bring him. And Mr. Marlow hates leaving the house!
