The 33rd annual Furry Scurry pet-walk fundraiser takes place Saturday, May 2, 2024, at 9 a.m. in Denver's Washington Park [1, 2].
The event serves as a critical funding and awareness vehicle for Humane Colorado. By bringing the community together for a public walk, the organization seeks to secure resources for the 44,000 animals it supports [1, 3].
Registration for the event is available in two windows to accommodate participants. On Friday, May 1, registration is open from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. [4]. Those who miss the Friday window can register on Saturday morning between 7:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. [4].
The walk begins at 9 a.m. [1]. Pet owners and their animals gather at Washington Park, often referred to as Wash Park, to participate in the tradition [1, 3].
This annual gathering emphasizes the scale of the animal welfare challenge in the region. With 44,000 animals under its care, Humane Colorado relies on these recurring community events to maintain its operations [1, 3].

The longevity of the Furry Scurry, now in its 33rd year, demonstrates a sustained community commitment to animal welfare in Denver. The high number of animals supported by Humane Colorado suggests a significant regional demand for shelter services, making these annual fundraisers essential for the organization's operational viability.
