The Pets of
the Fest

The first Horizon West Pet Fest was proof that cheer often comes on four paws.

Let’s be real: pets make life exponentially better. Whether they’re greeting us at the door like we’ve been gone for years (even if it’s just been five minutes), or simply hanging out as the best couch companions, our furry, feathered, and scaly friends bring the kind of unconditional love and chaos we can’t live without. Armed with a camera and an eye for cuteness, we headed to Horizon West Happening’s first-ever Pet Fest to capture some of the city’s most delightful furry stars. Prepare for a sleigh-full of adorable!
