On Sunday, November 16, the Zelenograd Cultural Center will host its traditional adoption show, "Looking for a Friend." More than 20 cats and several puppies from the Zoorassvet and Zelenograd shelters (Dorinvest State Budgetary Institution) will be waiting for a new family.

The event will run from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM. All animals are fully prepared for their new homes: they are vaccinated, spayed, and healthy. Dorinvest specialists will advise prospective owners on the age, personality, and characteristics of each animal, provide care recommendations, and explain how to become a shelter volunteer.

Visitors will be able to interact with the animals, pet them, hold them, and, most importantly, give a home to someone who finds a response in their heart.

Residents who decide to adopt a pet will be interviewed. Based on this interview, specialists and volunteers will decide whether to hand over the animal. A responsible care agreement will be signed with the new owners.

Shelter animal adoption shows have been held at the Zelenograd Cultural Center since 2021. At the 13 recent shows, 108 cats and 10 dogs have found new homes.

Today, Moscow has 13 city shelters housing over 15,000 animals. They receive the necessary care: experienced veterinarians monitor their health, and socialization specialists and volunteers work with them to help them adapt to new families.

You can meet four-legged friends during visiting hours or through the new "Mospitometz" service, which contains profiles of dogs and cats from all shelters. The website offers a filtered search: you can select the animal's species, age, gender, color, and even coat length.

Over three years, approximately 240,000 transactions have been concluded on the Moscow supplier portal following quotation sessions using an automated bidding bot. By lowering the starting price at auctions, customers saved 13.5 billion rubles, according to Maria Bagreeva, Deputy Mayor of Moscow, Head of the Moscow Department of Economic Policy and Development.

"In the fall of 2022, an automated bidding bot was introduced on the supplier portal, allowing entrepreneurs to participate in multiple bidding sessions simultaneously. This saves them time and helps maintain a high level of competition. Over the three years since the trading bot was launched, over 237,000 contracts worth over 44 billion rubles have been concluded as a result of these sessions. Almost a quarter of the total procurement value—10.4 billion—was for construction, information technology, and household goods. By reducing the starting price, customers saved 13.5 billion rubles," emphasized Maria Bagreeva.

The trading bot automates the procurement process by placing bids automatically until it reaches the minimum price set by the supplier before the auction begins. This allows entrepreneurs to participate in multiple bidding sessions simultaneously. Before the session begins, participants must set the minimum price at which they are willing to enter into a contract.

"Over the first three quarters of 2025, the trading bot was used to conclude 66,300 contracts. Their volume exceeded the same period last year by 15 percent, reaching 10.6 billion rubles. Savings amounted to 3.6 billion rubles. Suppliers from Moscow, the Moscow Region, St. Petersburg, the Ryazan Region, and the Perm Krai were the most active users of the bot, accounting for 78 percent of the total transaction volume," noted the head of the Moscow Department of Competition Policy.

Kirill Purtov.

Quotation sessions are a form of procurement, mini-auctions that last for three, six, or 24 hours. During these sessions, suppliers compete with each other, gradually lowering the starting price of the contract. Thanks to such rapid transactions, entrepreneurs can quickly conclude contracts and make a profit, and customers can purchase the necessary products at a favorable price.

In the capital Department of Information Technology They noted that the automated bidding bot is a reliable assistant for users: it streamlines competitive bidding processes, saves resources, and helps attract more suppliers to the portal. Furthermore, the service can be used from anywhere in the country, allowing entrepreneurs to enter the interregional market and increase sales.

Supplier portal Created in 2013 to automate small-volume procurement, the platform offers over 3.2 million unique goods, works, and services. Approximately 1,500 contracts are concluded on the platform daily.

Functional customer of the supplier portal – Moscow City Department for Competition Policy, and the capital oversees technical development Department of Information Technology.

The development of electronic services for business is in line with the objectives of the national project Data Economy and the Moscow regional project "Digital Public Administration." More information about Russia's national projects and the capital's contribution can be found atspecial page.

Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann first published the tale of the Nutcracker and the Mouse King in 1816 in his collection "Children's Tales." Since then, it has enjoyed enduring readership and even become a symbol of the winter holidays.

The story begins on Christmas Eve, when Marie and her brother Fritz receive a strange and rather unattractive Nutcracker toy, capable of cracking nuts, as a gift from their godfather, Drosselmeyer. It is later revealed that the toy is actually an enchanted prince, and to break the curse, he must defeat the Mouse King.

The fairy tale came to Russia in the 1830s. In 1892, composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky created a famous ballet production based on this work, which became a worldwide success. Today, "The Nutcracker" is arguably one of the most popular Christmas stories in the world and a frequent guest on the theater stage.

The mos.ru collection features eight performances of The Nutcracker at Moscow theaters. You can schedule a viewing for the winter holidays or any day before the New Year to create a truly festive mood for yourself and your family. Tickets are available online. Mosbilet.
