The seventh annual Fashion, Feathers & Fur show brought Mardi Gras to Plant City and raised money for five local charities.
The event, hosted by Timberlane Pet Hospital & Resort, was held at the Plant City National Guard Armory on Oct. 7 and featured several adoptable creatures who were decked out in their finest party attire.
In the Field Magazine publisher Karen Berry and WFLA News Channel Eight’s Steve Andrews were the masters of ceremonies for the event and led the fashion show and auction. Birds, cats and dogs strutted down a runway showing off their unique personalities in hopes of being adopted. A live and silent auction took place as fundraisers for the event, selling items like Botox treatments, bicycles and weekend getaways.
The proceeds from the event went toward 4 Lucky Dogs Pet Rescue Inc., Florida Parrot Rescue, Friends of HCAS Inc., Pennies for Pockets Veterinary Care Fund and Vets4Pets Charitable Clinic.
