SPECIAL REQUEST FROM OUR BIG CATS

As the Zoo continues to take on the challenges that Covid-19 presents for our animals we are looking for more ways to provide daily enrichment for our animals. Because a cat is a cat, no matter the size, we are in need of the following items:

• boxes
• paper towel tubes
• paper bags
• tissue paper
• live Christmas trees

Donations can be dropped off in the zoo gift shop. Our cats thank you!
