Summer Homes for Class Pets

Hello Parents,

It is that time of year where we begin preparing for the end of school!  I am looking for a summer home for both our frogs (Fred and George) and our hermit crab (Mrs. Krabs).  If you are interested in taking care of one or both of our habitats, please let me know as soon as possible.  The animals are super easy to take care of and will make a great addition to any family for the summer.  Summer homes will be given based on a first come, first served basis.  Thank you!
