 th Charities and a Goal of 200 Adoptions/Fosters\nThe primary goal of th
 e Chicago Pet Show is to assistRescues\, Shelters and Humane Societies t
 hrough the promotion of adoptions and foster care to help overburdened o
 rganizations. The Show&rsquo\;s utmost goal is 200 adoption and foster c
 are applicants for Charities to save pet&rsquo\;s lives. In 2011\, Chica
 go Pet Show was able to achieve over 100 adoptions\, and in 2012 we&rsqu
 o\;d like to exceed it. &nbsp\; Another benefit to participating Non-Pro
 fits (Rescues\, Shelters and Humane Societies) is revenue sharing with t
 he show\, helping organizations financially\, where other shows have a d
 raw back.&nbsp\;50% of each&nbsp\;&nbsp\;admission goes to the participa
 ting rescues. &nbsp\;Peggy states\, &ldquo\;Animals are the main reason 
 people attend. Yet\, the pets and the organizations that bring them rece
 ive nothing. That seems wrong.&rdquo\;&nbsp\; She adds\, &ldquo\;Attende
 es to the show can get a $1 discount coupon from their favorite Pet Char
 ity\, or the show&rsquo\;s website and proceeds are then shared between 
 the Charity and show.&rdquo\;\nAn Affectionate Warning\nThe Show warns a
 ttendees that touching and cuddling a new furry friend is likely to crea
 te a loving relationship. There will be plenty of adorable pets to meet 
 from breed-specific Rescue groups to mixed-breed animals from Shelters a
 nd Humane Societies. For example\, the Rescues include: Greater Chicago 
 Cavalier Rescue (Cavalier King Charles)\; S.T.R.A.E.S (Shih Tzu rescue)\
 ; True Hearts of Rottweiler Rescue\; Collie Rescue of Greater Illinois\;
  and the Magnificent Mutts Rescue.&nbsp\; In the feline category\, there
 &rsquo\;s Gypsy Cat for kittens and cats of all ages. &ldquo\;Each breed
  has fans and they&rsquo\;re all invited to attend\,&rdquo\; states Pegg
 y.&nbsp\; Potential pet parents stand a very good chance of finding exac
 tly the pet their family would love.&nbsp\; And remember if you even if 
 you can&rsquo\;t bring home a pet\, there are plenty of volunteer opport
 unities with local rescues.\nPony Rides / Mini Zoo / Trick Demonstration
