Bunny Basics with Pope Memorial Humane Society
Join special guests from the Pope Memorial Humane Society to learn some bunny basics! This fun and informative event is all about pet rabbits and is perfect for families who are thinking about adopting a bunny or already share their home with one. From housing and diet to grooming and vet care, this educational session will cover the essentials of rabbit care with plenty of helpful advice from experts along with some fun activities for kids. Whether you’re a new bunny parent or just curious about what makes these furry companions so special, you’ll leave with the knowledge (and probably a few adorable photos) to keep your rabbit happy and healthy.
Visit + Storytime with Author Katy Hunt
Join us during the morning play session (9am-Noon) for a special story time (at 10am) with local author Katy Hunt, who will be reading her book, There’s a Wub in My Tub. This story is about a cat named Wash, who is a shy guy, but loves to play with his toys. One day he loses his favorite cat toy (his “wub”), and has to go looking for it. Can you guess where Wash finds his wub? Come to story time to find out!
