About

J&C's Party Pets Ltd has a permanent home on the famous Promenade Park. We have been part of the park for several years, with a petting zoo open all year round in the heart of the park - now we are fully licensed as a full scale zoo! The zoo is open 364 days a year (please note that during periods of adverse weather our zoo may have to close in the interest of public safety, along with the safety of our staff and animals).

Our guests will enjoy meeting our lovely range of farm animals, from Goats, Donkeys, Shetland Pony, Alpaca's, Emu, Ducks, Chickens, Rabbits and the one and only Pot Bellied Pig Horace.  We also have a fantastic range of exotic animals and you can meet our Armadillo, Meerkats, Skunks, Mongoose, Agouti, Marmoset Monkeys, Raccoons and our Coati Mundi's.

We also have some fantastic aviaries where you can see some of our lovely Parakeets and Finches as well as some of our much smaller friends from Sugar Gliders, Chipmunks, Hamsters, Guinea pigs and Gerbils.

If your feeling brave you can also pay a visit to our reptile house! The Shepherds Tree Reptile House and Party Room which is home to some of our lovely reptiles, guests can enjoy meeting our 14 Foot Burmese Python, Iguana, Tortoises, Tegu, Corn Snake, Frogs, Toads, Bearded Dragon, Tarantula's and some Creepy Crawlies.
