Hey animal lovers, It's almost Christmas⛄🎁! You know what that means?
...A massive increase in animal adoptions and purchases!!!🐍🐢🦎

As much as we'd love for our animals to get adopted today, we need you to understand animals are not just for Christmas or special occasions.⚠️

That being said, we have lots of animals STILL looking for their forever homes! So, if you have room in your heart this Christmas, come down to look at our amazing reptiles and small animals. 💚

Happy Holidays!

Good morning everyone! Some exciting things are happening at the shelter, with more animals and new species coming from far and wide✈️. In just a few short weeks, we will have new invertebrates, new reptiles and something we've never had before 🦜🙊! However, with all these new rescues and surrenders, we need your help with getting supplies to make sure we can help all the animals we can and provide top-notch enrichment. This includes pet toys, chews, puzzle feeders, climbing equipment (cat towers especially!), tunnels and more. So we ask you, our wonderful supporters, to help us along on our quest. Below are a few suggestions of items we are in desperate need of, whether you are able to donate unwanted items or donate a bit of money💸 to help contribute to our needs, anything is welcome and would be greatly appreciated💙.

Bowie and Kylie have been busy today, like trying to go bask in Twix's vivarium, splashing in the bath (and pooping....yuck🤢), and just having an adventure 🤠 They have been running the poor volunteers in circles!😵‍💫 They definitely deserve a home that will let them roam and waddle around to their hearts content! 💚

Kylie wouldn't do well in the wild.... But we still love her 💚
