Have you ever held a cuddly bunny in your hands? It’s kind of one of the best feelings in the world. Judging from the look on people’s faces when they’re at a Tiny Tails to You zoo, I think most people would agree. There’s just something about being in close contact with small, cute animals that makes people of all ages really happy.
Tiny Tails to You is a traveling petting zoo that doesn’t only have bunnies—their adorable crew includes chinchillas, hedgehogs, lizards, guinea pigs, baby birds, and more. Before I met Tiny Tails to You, I had never seen a chinchilla before, let alone been able to pet one and learn that it has the softest fur in the world. Because not only do you get to experience literal warm and fuzzies at a Tiny Tails to You zoo, but you also get to learn lots of interesting facts about the animals, something both adults and kids can appreciate.
No matter where I go, everyone in Austin seems to know Tiny Tails to You. My friend’s daughter has been to so many zoo events she knows some of the staff. My neighbor wants to get a Hoppy Hour for her boyfriend’s birthday party. My supervisor had a zoo at her wedding. My coworker’s son raved about a zoo event he attended at school. The list goes on and on! Though each person I talk to has a different, adorable zoo experience, everyone mentions that the animals are extremely well-treated and the staff is knowledgeable and caring. And in a friendly, animal-lover city like Austin, those qualities are essential.
It makes sense that Tiny Tails to You would be a bit of a local celebrity in town. The answer to the question, “would a petting zoo make this event better?” is almost always, without a doubt, yes. Whether it’s a birthday party, holiday festival, school program, or baby shower, holding a guinea pig, or seeing your child nuzzle up to a baby chick, makes a special event even more memorable. Joe and Chelsea, the married couple who owns Tiny Tails to You, have created several zoo options that are tailored for specific places and age groups. And regardless of what type of zoo you’re attending or hosting, talk about the photo opportunities! Endlessly cute pics await you.
