Pet photos with Santa Claws

For those who feel nothing says Merry Christmas like a holiday card featuring your pet with Santa, final photo-ops are this weekend.

  • Mr. and Mrs. Claws will be at the McKamey Animal Center, 4500 N. Access Road, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.

You can bring your furry friends during that time and pose them with the couple for photos made by Artist’s Eye Photography. The photo fee of $20 is for a CD of your pictures, suitable for Christmas cards. No appointment is necessary. Proceeds benefit the homeless animals at the McKamey Center.

For more information, call 423-305-6504 or visit www.mckameyanimalcenter.org.

  • Santa Claws will be available from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at the two local PetSmart stores, 5591 Highway 153 in Hixson and at 2130 Gunbarrel Road in Chattanooga.

For $9.95, pet owners receive a memorable photo in a holiday collector frame. Proceeds go to the Humane Educational Society.
