They're here! 🐣💛
If you've been in recently, you’ve probably noticed the extra chirping — our baby birds have arrived! They're still weaning, so it’ll be a few weeks before they’re ready, but they’re doing great and already stealing my heart.
(Note to self: I do NOT need another bird... right? 😅)

⚡️🚫 Power Outage Update 🚫⚡️

Hi friends, unfortunately the power is out in our area, so the store will be closed until further notice. We’ll post an update as soon as things are back up and running.

Also, being in the store with nothing running, the animals silent, and no customers is wild! You could hear a pin drop in this place right now!

Just a week ago, we took in a sweet rabbit after someone threatened to release it into the wild. We couldn’t let that happen. Please—never release domesticated pets outside, it happens way to often. Be a responsible pet owner and explore options such humane societies, rescues, and US!!!
