Woodbury, NY -- March 15, 2006-- Pet Peeves' Inc. “The Voice of Long Island’s Pets” has announced that its 4th Annual Furry Tails Can Come True Gala will take place on Wednesday, September 13, 2006, at the Crest Hollow Country Club, in Woodbury, New York. Fonder and President, Janine Dion, is also pleased to announce that The Roslyn Savings Foundation has graciously agreed to serve as the “Best in Show” sponsor for the event, providing a $15,000 donation to Pet Peeves.

“We are so fortunate to have the generous support of our friends at The Roslyn Savings Foundation,” remarked Dion. Their generosity enables Pet Peeves to further its mission of protecting Long Island’s abused and neglected animals and its support of the organizations with whom we share common goals and we are forever grateful for their amazing generosity.”

Sharon G. Grosser, Executive Director of The Roslyn Savings Foundation stated, “Support of organizations like Pet Peeves is critical for the well-being of these vulnerable creatures. We have all heard too many horror stories about animals being abused and neglected, but little of the amazing work of the numerous dedicated volunteers who help animals in need. The Roslyn Savings Foundation
applauds the efforts of these individuals who are out there working in the trenches every day, often with little help or support. Working with Pet Peeves, we hope to lighten the financial burden for some of these groups.”

Sponsorships are still available for Furry Tails Can Come True. The proceeds from this event will enable Pet Peeves, Inc, to provide much needed financial support to non-profit animal rescue groups, no-kill shelters, humane education and pet therapy programs on Long Island. At last year’s gala, more than $50,000 in grants were issued to local organizations that aid animals in need. In addition, a special $5,000 emergency grant was issued to Noah’s Wish for aid to the animal victims of Hurricane Katrina in the Gulf States.

The Furry Tails Can Come True Fundraiser is a unique event which blends a festive atmosphere with delicious food and amazing raffles prizes as many prominent businesspeople, volunteers, and other concerned individuals come out for a one-of-a-kind event. Tickets are $100.00 each and must be purchased in advance. There are no ticket sales at the door. For details, please visit Pet Peeves’ website or call 516-692-8000 and ask for the Pet Peeves office.

Pet Peeves, Inc. is a non-for-profit organization that makes a difference through the support of “no kill” shelters and rescue groups, humane education and pet therapy initiatives. Its board is completely volunteer-driven, allowing nearly all funds raised to directly support the group’s mission.
