Taking a Pause for Paws & Claws

Stop by these special NECA booths sponsored by Graybar and help a local animal rescue.

Oct. 1, 2023

In addition to all of the free giveaways and prizes on the NECA 2023 show floor, there’s another special draw that’s hard to pass up. To de-stress and unwind for a second, visit NECA Booth 2208 (Pause for Paws) and NECA Booth 2023 (Claws for a Cause) to pet some super cute dogs and cats. Both sponsored by Graybar, NECA built off of the success of Pause for Paws at last year’s show to now include cats and kittens this year in a separate zone.

So make sure you take a break, stop by both booths and have a little fun petting the dogs and cats – all while helping out a local Philadelphia area animal rescue. As you can see, the editors of EC&M did just that… Pictured are managing editor Ellie Coggins Angus (left) and editor-in-chief Ellen Parson (right) cuddling these canine cuties. If we hadn’t flown to this event, I’m pretty sure we’d both be bringing new family members home with us.
