After canceling their event last year due to COVID-19, Wolfstalk 2021 is wagging its way back to the mountain art center this month. Wolfstalk is my dream. It combines my love of music, especially local musicians, and caring for animals. This is our big fundraiser. This is how we can afford our vet bill. And so that's why I encourage everyone in the community, everyone, even if you're a little bit further out, you can come because we have hotels here, and you can come and see a really good show. A show created by the Animal Alliance of East Kentucky, raising money to fund low-cost spay and neutering for animals in Floyd, Johnson, Martin, and McGuffin counties. According to Reynolds, it's crucial now more than ever to have your animals spayed or neutered. This year seems to be one of the worst years ever in terms of rescues and shelters being overwhelmed with kittens and puppies, especially kittens because cats stay in heat all the time. You know, after they have one litter, they can have another one. Because constantly people are bringing kittens, and there's nowhere for them. There's nowhere. And the only way we're going to solve this problem is to address it right at the foundation level, spay and neuter these animals so they can't reproduce because most of the time these puppies and kittens end up at a strip mine or up on the side of the road or even worse. With their continued support, two months ago, the Animal Alliance of East Kentucky hit a milestone of over 1,000 total spays. So when you think of 1,000 animals not reproducing and how many unwanted puppies and kittens have been avoided, that is how we solve this problem is to spay and neuter. The musical event will take place inside the Mountain Art Center in Preston'sburg, Kentucky, and will feature a ton of talented artists from around the region. And this year we have some of our regulars coming back. It's Beck in the Starlight Review, Sean Whiting, Chelsea Nolan, Jen Tackett, and then we have new people as well. We have Coal Town Dixie and Eddie Jenkins. But it's at the Mountain Art Center and it is Friday, August 20th, and it starts at 7. And we're going to have some prizes to give away and we're going to do all sorts of cool things. Reynolds says even if you can't attend the concert, you can still support their cause. And what I've been encouraging people to do is if you're out of town that weekend or if you can't come, still buy a couple of tickets or a ticket, leave it at the box office, let me know about it, and I will donate it in your name to a shelter worker or a transporter or someone who works in rescue and let them have a fun evening. All the proceeds from Wolfstock 2021, including t-shirt sales, will go to provide spay and neuter services. If you want to purchase a ticket, visit macarts.com or call 606-886-2623. For an application to spay or neuter your pet, visit aaky.org. Come to the concert, buy a t-shirt, and have a really good time. Oh, and spay and neuter your pets.
