The City of Redmond’s Whiskers, Wings and Wagging Tails pet fair returns to the Redmond Senior Center, 8703 160th Ave. N.E, on May 12 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

A major highlight of this year’s event will be animals ready for adoption from Motley Zoo, NOAH, King County Animal Control, MEOW and Oasis for Animals.

There will also be agility and obedience demonstrations by Linda Shea from The Educated Dog at 11 a.m. and flyable races by the Cascade Comets will begin at noon. In addition, Bellevue author Wendy Wahman will read her newest book, “A Cat Like That,” on the outdoor story walk.

Many local veterinarians, animal agencies and businesses with products and services for pets will be on hand with information tables and samples.

Pet owners can also join a mini class and learn how to teach their dog a new trick or try their dog in the rally course. They can also test their dog’s good manners in the AKC Canine Good Citizen test from 1-3 p.m. for a $10 fee.

Well-mannered, house-trained pets on a six-foot or shorter leash are welcome.
