Shelley Morrison is an A.N.G.E.L.

Shelley Morrison, who plays Rosario on "Will & Grace," deserves a hug. If you see her, give her one to thank her for working to help our animal friends.

“I was always bringing home strays, mainly cats,” Shelley says. “I was a cat person until my husband and I got married (32 years ago). Then we began rescuing dogs… on the freeway, starving to death in Hollywood, even in our alley. We still have cats. But I would say since I was 10 years old I was collecting animals.”

Shelley has always been a supporter of animal causes, and now she's an honorary spokesperson for A.N.G.E.L.’s Day (Animals Needing Generous Endowments of Love & Support), a group of volunteers who help Senior citizens on fixed or low incomes with either low cost or no cost veterinary care. She even played blackjack to support the cause: She participated in a Celebrity Blackjack TV tournament and designated the winnings to go to A.N.G.E.L’s Day.
