FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

Here are some of the most common questions we receive about our animal visits for holidays and events.

What types of animals do you bring to events?

We specialize in bringing a wide range of exotic animals to your event — including reptiles like snakes and lizards, fascinating insects, tropical birds such as parrots, and other unique creatures you won’t usually find at a petting zoo. Each animal is safe, well-trained, and accompanied by a knowledgeable handler. Upon request, we can also include a few familiar farm animals to complement the exotic experience.

FAQ image

Are the animals safe and clean for children to interact with?

Absolutely. Safety is our top priority. All our exotic animals are healthy, regularly checked by specialized veterinarians, and handled according to strict hygiene and safety protocols. They’re accustomed to human interaction and are always supervised by trained handlers to ensure a safe, calm, and enriching experience for children and adults alike.

We aim to make the surrender process as simple and stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet. First, give us a call or fill out the contact form on our website. Our team will speak with you to understand your situation and walk you through the next steps.
