ROLLING OUT THE RED CARPET

GRAMMY WINNER & FASHION DESIGNER ASSIST WITH A PSA

Reef The Fox

Hi friends! Reef the fox here with your weekly “Reef’s Report.” We had some celebrity visitors stop by a few weeks ago.

I wanted to wait to report on it so they didn’t get bombarded with adoring fans during their visit to the Florida Keys. My Grammy Award winning uncle, Zachary James, stopped by along with Manuel Tiscareño, a bridal couture fashion designer. I rolled out the red carpet for my famous friends and greeted them with my award-winning charm. Coral, on the other hand, was not so casual and stole Manuel’s coffee and ran. She’s a feral beast sometimes. But I held my composure and singlehandedly saved the visit.

Reef is a red fox that was saved from a fur farm. He now lives in Key Largo with his human, Nicole Navarro.

presence” (The Arts Desk, London) and “intrinsically beautiful,” “cavernous bass” with “oomph and range” (Opera News). James was named as the BroadwayWorld 2010-2020 Vocalist and Performer of the Decade and the 2019 Breakout Opera Artist of the Year by Verismo Magazine. He was identified as an industry leader and accepted an invitation to become an official ambassador for Opera America. James and my mom, Nicole Navarro, have been friends since the summer of 2020 when they met in Key Largo. He has also lent his voice for various antifur projects Pawsitive Beginnings has done, and on this most recent visit, he recorded a PSA for us to condemn the use of real fur in fashion.

This gorgeous girl is a Dutch shepherd mix about 2 years old. Ilsa was a stray that wandered into the yard of a loving family. They are keeping her safe until she can find her “furever” home. She is very sweet and well mannered. She’s friendly with all people and loves playing with other dogs. She hasn’t been tested around cats and she does bark at chickens. But, overall, she is an amazing dog. Please contact MarrVelous Pet Rescues at 305-453-1315 if you’re interested in meeting Ilsa or any of their adoptable pets, and submit an application at www.mprescues.org.

If you don’t know who either of these incredible humans are, I’ll give you a bio on each. Zachary James is a 2022 Grammy Winner who is described as a “true stage animal” by Opera News. He’s an international opera, concert and cabaret singer, stage and screen actor and recording artist known for his “huge, robust bass,” which “resonates with force” (Bach Track), “tremendous power and

Manuel Tiscareño has received recognition in prestigious publications such as Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Fady Italy, Vanidades and Nupcias and presented at New York Fashion Week and the Dubai Royal Gala. Tiscareño has never used real fur in his designs and would never consider it, so for that, we respect him immensely. Tiscareño even took the time to record a short, anti-fur PSA for us when he visited as well saying he supports a fashion industry that does not use fur. Pretty cool, huh?

Anywho, that’s all for this week. If you want to see either of the PSAs that were recorded, you can head to our website, pawsitivebeginnings.org, and then to our social media links to see past posts.

Until next time, Reef, over and out!
