In addition to the parade, there were booths featuring a variety of pet products, as well as many rescues and rescue-related efforts.  Shreveport Bossier Animal Rescue, one of two cat-only rescues in the area was represented, as well as Sheri Lynn’s TNR, which operates a successful Trap-Neuter-Release program that is growing in leaps and bounds.
