Attempt at Guiness World Record

Are you going to be in New York on October 4? If so, you might want to wander over to Central Park, where thousands of adopted pets and their owners will be attempting to set a Guiness World Record for the largest gathering of adopted shelter animals! The time is 4 PM and the gathering place is the Naumburg Bandstand, although I bet you'll be able to figure that out by the noise level!

Petco is the sponsor of what is being billed as the National Adoption Reunion Celebration and Mayor Bloomberg's Alliance for NYC Animals is also going to receive a mobile adoption van to aid their cause.

Even if you don't make it to the big Apple, check out your local Petco store. Chances are that they will be hosting an adoption event on October 8 and 9.

No word yet as to who or for that matter how the counting will be done in Central Park but the Guiness folks are very serious about their world records so rest assured it will be legit. Sounds like a fun event for a great cause!
