Animal shelter stages delightful, Star Wars-themed photo shoot
Talk about thinking outside the galaxy.
The Ottawa Humane Society teamed up with the Capital City Garrison — an "all-volunteer international Star Wars costuming organization," according to the group's website — to show off some of its pets alongside storm troopers and other classic characters. You know you've pulled off a solid homage when Luke Skywalker himself approves.
Below, three great photos from the shoot. And check out more animals up for adoption here on Earth over at the Ottawa Humane Society's website. —Sarah Eberspacher
