Tori Spelling love’s PETaPOTTY-Thank you Tori and Stephanie Pratt uses it too!

Multimedia Artist Rachel Schmeidler Presents “Hollywood Least Wanted 3D,” this Saturday on November 21. Los Angeles artist Rachel Schmeidler will host the charity event “Hollywood Least Wanted 3D” at the Rivera & Rivera Art Gallery downtown. The theme of the evening is helping unwanted and abandoned animals in need. Actor Zachary Quinto, star of the television program Heroes and the actor who portrayed the young Spock on the hit movie Star Trek, will be in attendance as an honored guest with his dog, Noah.

“Hollywood Least Wanted 3D” will highlight the cause of abandoned animals by using one of Hollywood’s hottest artistic trends—3D. The exhibit will feature anaglyphic 3D photographs of dogs “behind bars” in effort to raise public awareness and support for the animals. One hundred percent of raffle ticket sales/donations and 50 percent of the proceeds from the sale of artwork will go towards the participating rescue charity, the City of Los Angeles’ Animal Services division (http://www.laanimalservices.com/). Each adopted dog will go home with a year supply of dog food and a Mini PETaPOTTY.

PETaPOTTY supplies all the relief for Tillman and Rose on the 2010 Natural Balance Float Rose Parade Float. This year Natural Balance is going for a record, the longest float ever seen. Here we are in the Natural Balance Training Center equipped with XL custom PETaPOTTY’s.

We are very proud to be apart of the float that’s going for the gold. PETaPOTTTY and founders are all big fans of Snowboarding, and add dog’s to the mix is just plain “Animal Comedy” Tillman earlier this year set the world record for the fastest skateboarding dog and PETaPOTTY will be there on the float thats going to break the record for the longest float!

Tillman is now the ambassador of the rose parade and has his own 32 Ft. “Rock Star” Motor Coach that he’s touring in. PETaPOTTY will be installing another custom PETaPOTTY in the coach later this month.

This year’s Best Friends Lint Roller Party was one befitting the 25 years of saving lives, and the 25 more years to come.

Back in 1991, Francis and Silva Battista would sit at a card table in front of a market in West Hollywood and ask people to donate to an organization the couple had helped found, an organization that ran a no-kill animal sanctuary in southern Utah.

The mission of that organization — to save as many animals as it could from having to enter shelters and face euthanasia — is still very much the same, but the size and scope of its impact have come a long ways, to say the least, in the 25 years Best Friends has been in business.

Just how far the organization has come since those card table days was made rather evident at the 16th annual Lint Roller Party, held Saturday night, Oct. 3, at the iconic Hollywood Palladium to benefit the work of Best Friends’ Los Angeles Programs.

Live and silent auctions, an award ceremony, video presentations, vegetarian buffet catered by Wolfgang Puck, psychic readings, a wheel of fortune, caricature drawings, a rocking live performance by the Bangles and a bevy of other attractions and fundraising events drew a sweeping array of supporters, members, and benefactors from all over the country to the party. Approximately 600 people attended the event.

“We are celebrating 25 years of saving lives,” said Best Friends co-founder and interim CEO Gregory Castle in his opening remarks to the evening’s presentations. “With your help, we’re saving lives all over the country…. It wouldn’t have been possible without the support you’ve given us.”

Among those in the audience were a host of celebrities, including Lisa Edelstein from the television series “House.” Edelstein delivered the anniversary toast.

“A million thanks to all the founders of Best Friends,” Edelstein said. “We love you and appreciate you, and we’re so happy to be here.”

Other celebrities to walk the red carpet and pay tribute to Best Friends included Phyllis Smith from “The Office,” Monty Python’s Eric Idle, Amy Smart from the film “Mirrors,” Rachelle Lefevre from the film “Twilight,” Anna Faris from the “Scary Movie” series, M.A.S.H.’s Loretta Swit, film and television legend Robert Culp, as well as veteran actor and newly elected president of the Screen Actors Guild, Ken Howard.

Also there to pay tribute to Best Friends, especially to our work in Los Angeles, was the city’s mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa.

The anniversary celebration wasn’t just about looking backwards, but also of looking forward in anticipation of what the next 25 years will bring,” she says. “I think people [at the party] were inspired not just about the work we’ve done, but about the work we’ll continue to do in the future.”
