PAWS Chicago hosts 28th annual Angels with Tails

PAWS Chicago adoption event: Angels with Tails
There's always something going on over at PAWS Chicago, and you have another chance to bring a new member of your family home this weekend.
What we know:
CHICAGO - As part of PAWS Chicago's 28th annual Angels with Tails event, 40 storefronts along Oak Street, Rush Street, Delaware Place, and Michigan Avenue across the Gold Coast hosted nearly 100 homeless pets waiting to be adopted.
PAWS said that 48 pets found new homes due to the event. Thirteen of the adoptions were through PAWS Chicago's rescue partners and 35 were through PAWS.
That includes 35 adoptions through PAWS Chicago—as well as 13 adoptions from our amazing rescue partners.
The retailers included Giorgio Armani, Talbott Hotel, and TOD’s, which all donated a portion of their sales made on Sunday to PAWS Chicago.
In 1998, Paula and Alexis Fasseas and a group of volunteers brought stray animals from the Chicago Animal Care and Control facility to storefronts across the Gold Coast. The event launched PAWS Chicago, with Paula and Alexis Fasseas as its founders.
The event also featured other exciting things to do, from raffles and refreshments to a pet portrait artist and giveaways.
