How much room is needed and can the Animal Show be outdoors?

All shows must be hosted indoors. For birthdays I need a place to sit on the floor with the kids and lay my mat down for them to sit around. Most parties set us up in the living room and move a coffee table. For schools, libraries, etc I need a table at the front of room to set up on a preferably a taped off front border that kids can not pass and a walkway if it's a larger crowd so the kids in the back can see also.

How much room is needed for the Petting Zoo and where do you set up?

What happens to my Petting Zoo if it rains or is too cold?

If it is light rain we have a tent. If it is thunder and lightening we must reschedule your event. We can also tarp the floor and set up in a garage if it rains or is too chilly and windy outdoors.
