Famous People and Their Pets In-Person
Many of us have pets that hold a special place in our heart. This presentation will provide an overview of famous people's pets, as well as salacious stories about them. We will cover pets from the royal families of England, France, and Russia to the beloved White House pets of American Presidents. Besides cats and dogs, we'll also talk about pet snakes, squirrels, raccoons, ponies, horses, goats, and exotic birds owned by famous people in history.
