Pod, Fuzzy and Petcube have all come together with the common goal of supporting animal welfare and pet rescue.
The photo opportunity will take place at Spark Social SF, an urban park located in the Mission district.

Internet-famous Manny the Frenchie, a rescue himself, will be a co-Master of Ceremonies. Other SF Bay area pet celebrities will make special appearances throughout the daytime event, along with live performance from acclaimed band BEGINNERS. RSVP is required and all ticket sale proceeds from the Eventbrite will support SF SPCA and area rescues.
Since Petcube’s founding, the company has helped shelter and rescue organizations across the country by donating camera devices and resources to help increase adoptions. Through its Petcube Rescue Program, the company has set up public camera sharing capabilities to enable anyone with the free Petcube App to interact and play with adoptable shelter pets.
Petcube Bites, planned for release on July 24th, is the most advanced pet camera on the market with remote monitoring and treating capabilities, 1080p live streaming video, high capacity container, and automatic treat reordering via the Petcube app.
