About this Event

PETTING ZOO:


A Night of Pet Play and Exploration


Welcome to Petting Zoo—an event designed for lovers of pet play and those curious about embracing their inner animal. Whether you’re a kitten, puppy, bunny, or a handler, this night is your chance to explore and celebrate pet dynamics in a playful, safe, and thrilling environment. With dedicated spaces for roaming, playful activities, and the opportunity to connect with fellow “pets” and handlers, this event invites you to express your wildest side. Come as you are, or dress to embody the creature within.

• Behavior: Pets are encouraged to stay in character, from playful purring to enthusiastic barking. Handlers and trainers can guide pets through activities or games designed for interaction and fun.

• Play Areas: Dedicated zones for pet play, with mats, tunnels, and toys. Respect all areas and play with consent.

• Extras: Each attendee can bring one personal item for comfort, such as a small blanket or favorite toy, to help settle into their role.


Note: Consent is key, and all play is welcome as long as it’s respectful and mutual. We can’t wait to see your pet persona come to life at Petting Zoo!



DRESS CODE


Pet Attire: Ears, tails, collars, leashes, and harnesses are encouraged for pets. Go as your favorite animal or create a custom creature that captures your personality.

• Handler & Trainer Attire: Whistles, training outfits, or stylish yet authoritative looks. Handlers can also wear suits or casual attire with accessories to match their pet.

• Pet Accessories: Paws, mitts, muzzles, and animal-themed accessories are all welcome. Feel free to bring items like chew toys, plushies, or balls for play.

• Casual Gear for All: Comfortable clothing underneath is encouraged, or any light layering that aligns with your animal persona.
