Frankie is still enjoying his frozen treats made by our amazing keepers and interns, but we’re already preparing for the colder months ahead! ❄️🐾

As winter approaches, we’re seeking donations of gently used blankets, towels, pillowcases, and even stuffed animals to help keep our animals warm and comfortable. These items not only provide cozy bedding, but are also incredibly useful during transport and cleaning.
If you have any linens you’re looking to part with, we’d love to give them a second life! You can drop them off at our admissions building, and our staff will make sure they’re put to good use.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and support — every donation makes a difference! ❤️

Edit: thank you to our community for your incredible generosity! Our cabinets are filled up and ready for winter!

Brooke and her baby are officially out on display for the very first time since Mother’s Day! 🦥Baby is now big and strong enough to safely explore so they will now be out every other day!

Brooke is already being the best mom—showing her little one how to play, explore, and navigate their space. It's a heartwarming sight you won't want to miss! 💗
