Part of the ASPCA’s 150th anniversary celebration, the ASPCA and the Alliance for NYC’s Animals hosted the first-ever NYC Paws Parade and Adoptapalooza on Sun., April 10, from Madison Square Park to Union Square Park. Hundreds of puppies, dogs, kittens, cats and rabbits in need of loving homes were offered for adoption. Bernadette Peters served as grand marshal. The Broadway legend co-founded Broadway Barks (www.broadwaybarks.com), an annual star-studded adoption event held in Shubert Alley that will be held next on July 30. Speaking of political animals, Senator Chuck Schumer was passing through Union Square and was spotted taking a selfie with an Adoptapalooza worker.
