We raised over $73,000 at our annual fundraiser, Banana Ball! These donations will fund a portable X-ray machine and an ICU system for our new, state-of-the-art veterinary hospital coming in the next few years!! This equipment will help our veterinary team continue to provide the best medical care for our animals.

We are so incredibly grateful for all the support from donors, sponsors, and everyone who showed up and showed out! We truly could not do our work without your support 💚

While Zoo events are rain or shine, out of an abundance of caution we have made the decision to cancel Boo in the Zoo on Saturday, October 10th, due to inclement weather. If you purchased tickets for this date, look for an email containing instructions on how to reschedule your tickets for another date, or how to request a refund. Thank you for your patience and understanding at this time.

Those with tickets for Boo in the Zoo tonight, we’ll see you here this evening for the spookiest event in town!
