Critter Day

I coordinated a fund Meet a Critter tour at Pet Smart in Fullerton for my La Habra Moms Club.   We had about 25 moms and kids come to the event.

The kids got to see cute guinea pigs and  pet their mascot Lucy, who is a sweet mouse.   We saw how they groomed dogs.   Then we got a tour of the pet animal hospital and meet the Vet and visit all of the sick animals.   We saw a surgery room and even X-rays of a dog’s broken leg.  

Poor Amanda got her left hand slammed in the door, but the good news is we were in the pet hospital when it happened so we had immediate medical attention to our rescue.   Within minutes she was over it and all was fine again – whew!!

Our last part of the tour was visiting all of the different kinds of fish.   We also saw a huge bin of live crickets that they sell by the pound and they are used to feed lizards, snakes, etc. that people keep as pets.  My little insect lovers thought that was fascinating.  Of course off of my girls worked my really hard to buy some fish to take home.  I told them when they got a little older and got more responsible with helping feed the fish and clean the fish tank, then we would get them some fish.   I gracefully bowed out of that one…LOL!!

At the end of our tour each child received a fun goodie bag as a present.    It was a fun time!!
