Rockville, MD (PRWEB) May 14, 2014

On Friday, May 23, 2014, Animal Exchange, a pet store located on Hungerford Drive in Rockville, will celebrate an ecumenical Blessing of the Animals at 4:30 p.m. The blessing will be preceded by a book reading. Harrison Bae Wein will read from his book, The Life and Opinions of the Housecat Hastings, on Friday, May 23rd at 3:30 pm. Wein’s book is an insightful life story of an extraordinary cat. The book is available in print, and on e-readers, including Kindle and Nook.

The annual Ecumenical Blessing will follow the book reading at 4:30 pm. You are invited to bring your pets to the store location. Because some pets are not as interested in social events as others, we encourage these Pet Lovers to attend the blessing, accompanied by pictures of their pets instead of bringing the animal to the store. Refreshments will be served for animals and their owners. Please contact Ruth at 301-424-PETS for more information.
