Kathy Mondo and her 10 year-old Pekinese dog Napoleon joined dozens of others and their canine best friends for a candle lighting ceremony at the Remember Me Thursday event on Thursday.
The event was to bring awareness to orphan shelter pets who were euthanized as a result of being unable to find a home.
This is the second consecutive year the event has run in Chatham, being held at the John Waddell Dog Park and run by CK Animal Rescue.
Those looking to get involved can visit the 270 Inshes Ave. location on Wednesdays between 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. to volunteer or can register on Nov. 2 for the Purple Leash Walk to bring awareness to domestic animal abuse. For more information, visit www.purpleleash.com.
