BZTAT will dedicate the mural to an audience filled with cats and dogs as well as human participants. Pets available for adoption from Friends of the Pound and Second Chance for Animals, Inc. will be present to celebrate the event, and hopefully find loving homes.

Twitter participants are encouraged to watch the live video stream and tweet your thoughts and impressions to your friends!

The four panel mural created by Artist BZTAT, (a.k.a. Vicki Boatright) hangs on a brick building at 201 Fifth St. NW in Canton, and it depicts four felines who actually live in downtown Canton. The cats, named Noah, Slick, Who, and Brewskie Butt (@BrewskieButt), are the companions of the artist, who owns BZTAT Studios on Fourth Street in the Canton Arts District.
