Some might say it’s a risk to have a fundraiser at a local comic store although it’s worth pointing out that 50/50 draws and garage sales don’t have the monopoly on raising much needed funds for looking after, guess who, yes – the numerous fosters Zoe’s has in its care! So in our not-so-trivial pursuit for extra dollars, we headed to Edmonton’s numero-uno comic store, Variant Edition to, amongst other things, connect four or five foster cats together to join in the fun! Anyway, I’m sorry, I’ll allay you’re frustration and stop this pandemic of wordplay now!
The sold-out table-top games event took place on Sunday 10th April at Variant Edition on 10441 123 St. Guests of honour were Harrison, Faith Hill, Lala, Starbrite, and Digger, five of our cute and cuddly cats currently looking for their forever homes. As you’d expect, trying to play a verity of board games while five curious cats run amok isn’t the easiest of tasks. Indeed, some of the players had to play standing up as the pussies stole some much needed nap time, and the chairs from under the posteriors of the players. It was very much a cats against humanity situation!
Events like these are absolutely key in raising funds that Zoe’s Animal Rescue Society can then spend on helping disadvantaged cats and dogs find the warm and loving forever homes they so richly deserve. If you’re interested in supporting any of our future events, please follow this link to our events calendar for details of our forthcoming fundraisers Zoe’s Events. It’s a no-cranium-er! I’ll stop now…
