📢 As the weather shifts towards the cool season, our hours are making a small shift as well. Beginning tomorrow, 9/1 we will be open from 10am-4pm, Tuesday through Sunday, and remain closed on Mondays.

🙌🏽 Still plenty of time to enjoy all we have to offer! And if you haven’t gotten your yearly membership yet, now’s the perfect time to lock it in so you’ll continue to have plenty to do with the family during the colder days! Link in bio to purchase yours 😊

🗞️ Hello friends! We are looking for donations of newspaper (as much as you can give us 😆) so we can line our animal enclosures with fresh paper. If you have some laying around or you’re done reading today’s news, if you’d be so kind to drop it off at your earliest convenience at 191 Farmington Ave in Berlin, we would certainly appreciate it! Thank you so much! 📰
