Animal Therapy
Welcome to our dedicated area for our animal therapy visits.
We educate, amaze, and inspire the young and the elderly through our ethical and engaging hands-on animal encounters.
Our animal therapy sessions are designed to stimulate and engage while promoting mental well-being.
Animal-assisted therapy sessions can help bring people together, help people see things from a different perspective, and help them cope in the most adverse situations.
We find our work very rewarding, visiting places such as care homes for the elderly, children’s hospices, and pupil referral units. It is all about making people’s lives better!
We offer five unique packages designed to appeal to everyone.
Exotic Mobile Zoo | Meerkats | Miniature Pony | Donkey | Alpacas
Our Exotic Mobile Zoo
We will visit your care home with a collection of our exotic animals, allowing residents to touch, hold, or, depending on how brave they feel, just look.
Animals that may attend include the corn snake, royal Python, bearded dragon, geckos, and tortoises.
This is an interactive session with lots of fun and lots of interaction.
£85.00 for a 1-hour visit; travel expenses also apply.

Meerkat Vision Therapy
Our Meerkats will entertain anyone and everyone with their playful, mischievous behaviour.
Our Meerkats are not handle-able and are only used for viewing purposes.
We will arrive 30 minutes before your session start time to allow us time to set our 6 x 6
foot enclosure up in a room convenient to you.
Your residents can sit around the enclosure and be entertained by the non-stop antics of these adorable creatures.
