Lots of Love Cat Rescue FUNdraiser @Flatbread Pizza

Wilmington, MA, Dec. 17, 2011 - Lots of Love Cat Rescue (LOLCR) is putting the Fun in fundraiser with a special event at the Flatbread Company, all natural pizza, at 213 Burlington Road in Bedford on Tuesday, January 17, 2012. Besides a portion of all pizza sales generously donated to LOLCR by the Flatbread Company, there will be a wide variety of raffles and a silent auction of highly desirable items. Raffle tickets will be available for purchase at the event with the drawing taking place during the evening. Ticket holders do not have to be present to win raffle prizes. The Silent Auction includes items of great significance, compliments of the Boston Celtics (prime tickets), Boston Bruins (autographed puck), Keurig Coffee Brewers (premier brewer and K-cups).   

Incorporated in June, 2010, this small but growing non-profit organization has made huge strides in quickly becoming a recognized and active force in socialization and retraining of friendly, abandoned cats to provide loving, highly adoptable cats to screened and approved permanent homes and families. LOLCR is well known for its unique Kitty Boot Camp that is responsible for turning some of the most feral cats into calm and sweet purr-machines. At least eight local newspapers and web news reports publish their weekly Cat–of-the–Week articles to encourage adoption of these cats to well-suited homes. More than 250 cats received help from LOLCR, so far.
