On Saturday, April 5, from 7 to 11 p.m., some of KHS's most dedicated supporters will live stream at KHS "pawting" with their shelter residents to raise funds and awareness for community animals.

Huge thanks to all of our supporters who have already donated, as well as those joining us to help fundraise on Saturday. This will be so much fun and we can’t wait to throw on our pajamas and have a fun night with our pets,” Jordan Bani-Younes, KHS's director of communications, said. Participants include KHS CEO Aaron Walker, KHS Lead Veterinarian Amy Schad, KMUW’s Jedd Beaudoin, Beth Ericson from A Better Companion Pet Training, Woof’s Play & Stay’s Kimberly Dunagan, April Kececi with Stryv Bank, and many more.
