Are donations made to Exotic Pet Wonderland tax deductible?

Can I adopt an animal from the sanctuary?

Once we allow volunteers, it may be possible to adopt an animal from us, but at the moment, we are not adopting out to the general public. Our adoption process will include some volunteer time to get to learn the animal and for us to get to know you, an enclosure inspection as every animal here will need a secure enclosure, and passing our application process.

What animals do you take ?

We can take in a large variety of species, but mainly focus on foxes (vulpes, urocyon, otocyon), raccoons and other procyonidae, bobcats,  lynxes, and others in the felidae family, and coyotes and other canidae. We do not take in domestic pets or livestock, however we are happy to accept reptiles and will consider exotic pocket pets as space and funding allows.
