Reptiles
Although we do not advocate having reptiles as pets, we realize that many people choose to do so. It is our desire this choice be made with knowledge and commitment, giving the reptile the highest quality of life available.

Box Turtles
Box turtles are one of the most common reptile pets in the United States. With proper care they are long-lived, with life spans of 30 to 40 years and perhaps much longer. Unfortunately, they are among the most neglected reptiles in captivity because most people do not know how to care for them properly.

Guinea Pigs
Looking for a pet that's gentle and loveable but doesn't require the run of the house? Then you may want to consider a guinea pig.

Pocket Pets
Rabbits, hamsters, gerbils, rats, mice, guinea pigs, and ferrets are often called "pocket pets" because they are small, cute, and inexpensive.

Ferrets
Popular because of their small size, their playfulness, and their friendly disposition, ferrets can be great companions. They do however require a lot of care and supervised attention.

Injured and Orphaned Birds
Every year hundreds of people find “orphaned’ baby birds – often in their own back yard. Many of these foundlings end up being hand-raised, usually without success, by well-meaning individuals and yet, few of these birds are truly orphans.
