Folsom Feline Rescue - CatWalk 2008

Walkers and Pet Lovers are Invited!

Folsom Feline Rescue will hold its annual walk-a-thon (CatWalk 2008) on Saturday, September 20. CatWalk is not a competitive event; it’s strictly for raising money for animal spay/neuter and having fun while doing it. Walkers begin their 5-K trek at 10:00 a.m. from the starting point on Sutter Street in Folsom.

Registration will be held in the large parking lot near the Leidesdorff light rail station and across from the Folsom intersection of Sutter St. and Decatur St. starting at 8:30 a.m.

Look for the balloons. The walk will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. and end at approximately 11:30 a.m. Friends and supporters of animal rescue are invited to join in the fun – canine friends included!

The CatWalk fundraiser began in 2000 in hopes of raising money for a kitten’s cataract surgery. Not only was enough money raised for Viktor, the kitten, to see again, but there was enough extra to provide surgery for another kitten with cataracts that came along later than year.

This year, Folsom Feline Rescue has been fortunate enough to help a kitten bitten by a rattlesnake and another kitten hit by a car. Fundraisers like CatWalk allow this assistance to continue and also to fund spay/neuter programs, helping to control animal overpopulation in our local neighborhoods. FFR’s programs have “fixed” over 3000 cats and dogs in Folsom and the greater Sacramento county area, sparing communities thousands of unwanted litters and decreasing euthanasia rates.

Registrations is free with $25 or more in pledges or is otherwise $25 per walker (children 12 and under and canines walk for free!). Just ask your friends, family members, and associates to pledge a specific dollar amount for each kilometer you walk. On the day of the walk, bring your pledge form and the checks you have gathered to the event registration desk, and get ready for some fun!
