Today, Humom and Sauerkraut and I attended the 2015 Animal Conference in Oklahoma City. It was a conference to benefit the welfare of animals, from a variety of fields and perspectives. Hosted by the Kirkpatrick Foundation's Safe & Humane Initiative, the goal is to make Oklahoma the safest and most humane place to be an animal by 2032. The conference brought together people from animal care, science, journalism, research, and sustainability efforts to focus on current topics of animal well-being.
Sauerkraut was invited by the Central Oklahoma Humane Society and the Bella Foundation as their celebrity guest in the Pop-up bookstore and Cat Cafe. She received a warm, happy welcome from the attendees, and met a lot of great folks, including the KOCO News 5 team.

To celebrate the event, Sauerkraut began selling t-shirts, and now has a store OPEN FOR BUSINESS! Please feel free to visit the store and pick up a t-shirt in one of her favorite styles!
Sauerkraut spent most of the event happily lounging in her pink cat stroller, getting petted, posed with, and adored. I think the only thing that Sauerkraut wasn't too excited about was when some people thought it would be fun to photograph her with a... you know, a dog. She got a little scowly at that.

Congratulations to the Kirkpatrick Foundation, the Bella Foundation, the Central Oklahoma Humane Society, and all the others responsible for hosting this amazing event. Day 1 was great, and she's already looking forward to Day 2 tomorrow!
Well... maybe if by "looking forward to" we mean "ready for more napping and adoration"......
