If I Were a Rich (Wo)Man...

...I would quit my job so fast it would make your head spin. But, I digress...

I've been lax in posting and commenting on other blogs lately. With board orientation meetings last week and our full board meeting starting on Sunday, any spare moment I've had has purposefully NOT been spent on the computer!! But, I didn't want too much time to go by without posting about a few surprise guests to my local shelter.

The actor Harvey Fierstein is currently in town for a few months playing Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. He is a BIG supporter of adopting rescued animals (he has many of his own) and last week brought some of his castmates along for a tour of the Washington Animal Rescue League.


I've always thought he seemed like such a fun guy and now I like him even more knowing of his love of animals.


Unfortunately, I was not there when they took the tour. All photos are courtesy of WARL. I don't know why but this last photo just melts my heart.

I believe my heart has just melted as well...

How wonderful they all took the time to tour the facility.

I wish for you that someday you will be a rich (wo)man and are able to do just what you want!
Love anyone who loves kitties.

I've always loved Fiddler on the Roof. How cool that the cast came to visit the shelter. Good luck with your Board meeting.

Of course, the marvelous cats...but my eyes were totally captured by this very, very different view of Harvey Fierstein. Delightful!
