With its furr-tabulous theme of “Hollywoof,” Wayside Waifs’ annual Fur Ball Gala went all in on glamour and fun. Guests dressed for the part with fabulous costumes while purr-using the fantastic silent auction items. Chaired by Stephanie and Keith Henson and emceed by Loren Halifax and Joe Lauria, the event raised funds that will serve nearly 50,000 pets and people through pet adoptions, youth education, canine training programs, and community programming.
