I’d like to introduce Shera, one of my very favorite cats.  She was adopted from The Feline Foundation and found a wonderful home where she reigns supreme.

Meet Wally, Theodore and Eddie. 

Here is their story – as told by their human:

“My cats were informally rescued by strangers and dropped off at vets for adoption/care.  The two littermates, Wally and Theodore were found 16 years ago and rescued by the nice folks at Hayfield Animal Hospital in Alexandria.  Five-year old Eddie was found by my sister, Cathy in Atlanta by her vet.  It’s funny . . . Eddie flew here (in first class) on Delta with my nieces and sister when he was a kitten.  He was a Valentine’s Day gift from my sister.”  

“Hoof, Paw, Claw,” an new exhibition for art and animal lovers will open at the Arts Center in Orange during a reception at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, July 24th. The show runs through September 6th, 2008.

The event also will feature the unveiling of Evelyn Cowles’ painting selected for the 2008 Montpelier Hunt Races poster. The exhibition, which features sculpture, mixed media, oils, acrylics, photographs and watercolors, includes works by Elaine Hurst, Aggie Zed, Dorothy Chuey, Dana Thompson, Mary Cornish, Jan Settle, Robin Burkett, Mary Shira, Kitty Dodd, Diane Balister, Jo Hodos, Ed King, Sharon Campbell, Willa Frayser, Karen Trimmer, Laura Burrell, Marian Mercer, Jean-Francois Landeau, Joe Simms and Tyler and Austin Burdick.

A portion of its commission on gallery sales from this exhibit will be donated to the Orange County Animal Shelter and the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation at Montpelier. The Arts Center in Orange is at 129 E. Main St.
