FixNation along with many other individuals, families, and friends descended on the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles, on Saturday, November 1, to celebrate the ancient tradition and holiday, Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead. This day celebrates and honors beloved ancestors and loved ones lost. In celebration, each year FixNation erects an altar to lost and deceased cats. FixNation’s altar honors departed cats but also allows us to educate the public about our work on behalf of the community cats that are still living among us. In fact, FixNation is responsible for the TNR of a small colony of cats that call Hollywood Forever Cemetery home!
Thanks to our dedicated volunteers who helped to make the 2014 altar and festival one of the best yet! Melinda Hammer, Sina Taylor, Adriana Olivarez, Maria Gonzalez, Stella Gusman, Linda Wilson, Caitlin Mendoza-Price, Nancy Aguilar, Renee Morris, Karen Neopolitan, Desiree Deza, Christy Holguin, Joe Federico, Tom Gleason, Blanca Domiguez, and Patty Pierce.
If you haven’t already had the pleasure of attending the Dia De Los Muertos festival at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, please plan to join us next year!
