On November 17 Bella traveled to the Westfield Promenade in Woodland Hills, CA to go to the ribbon cutting ceremony at the Grand opening of Petopia, the very first all-rescue pet store in the city of Los Angeles to be found in a major indoor buying mall. The long wait began earlier this year with the purchase of a 3850 sq ft storefront area by the founding group, Valley Cats Inc. :
Soon other rescues signed on as participants, including southern California Pomeranian Rescue. An interior style was drafted as well as soon building began to include at the front of the home a reception area, specially developed areas for rescue groups to showcase their adoptable pets, spaces for prospective adopters to spend time getting to understand a pet, canine runs, as well as a training area. In the back of the home are areas set aside for pet grooming, an isolation as well as an examination room, laundry appliances, as well as storage:
While building was still in progress, a few little events were held. right here is a good collage of the area while being remodeled, as well as people coming in to see a few of the adoptable cats:
As the months went on, enjoyment continued to develop as the storefront took shape as well as identity. The Grand opening as well as ribbon cutting ceremony was arranged for November 17th. I chosen out one of my prettiest gowns to wear. numerous people came, as well as it was a joyful event went to by numerous advocates of the rescues:
I was extremely pleased to see my furrend Isabella Pomeranian as well as her Mom, the beautiful Shanna Olson. inspect out their Facebook page Doggie Celebrities. routine visitors of my blogs will keep in mind an interview that I did with Shanna earlier this year. As volunteers for southern California Pomeranian Rescue, it was essential for us to go to this event. First, there were the typical speeches:
Everyone waited with fantastic anticipation while Yvette Berke (left) as well as Debbie Regal (right) cut the Red ribbon at the entrance:
Once the ribbon was cut, everybody poured inside to survey the new digs as well as celebrate. It was an interesting evening. Petopia is found inside the Westfield Promenade, 6100 Topanga Canyon Blvd #2230, Woodland Hills CA 91367. The idea of a petstore where all of the animals are rescues is a timely one in the city, as the Los Angeles City Council moves toward adopting ordinances that ban the sale of dogs, cats as well as rabbits that come from industrial breeders.
