Celebrate your Birthday Party at Lollypop Farm!

Birthday Party FAQs

• Will animals be present in the party room for guests to interact with regardless of the activity you select?

  No, you must choose a Special Animal Guest as the Pawesome Activity in order for an animal to be brought into the party room for guests to interact with.

• What type and how many animals will be part of the “Special Animal Guest”

  Because Lollypop Farm is actively working to help homeless pets find a new family, the animals in the shelter are always changing. Living in an animal shelter can be very stressful for some animals, and their safety and happiness is our main concern while selecting animals to participate in our Petacular Parties. Our Humane Education team works with the Animal Care team to select animals who are social and interested in visiting with children. Typically, birthday guests will meet a small animal (rabbit, guinea pig, etc.).

• What is the schedule for the party?

  Each party is different. We realize that every family has different interests and needs for their party. Sometimes, guests want to leave time to open presents and serve cake. While other times the party guests want to have a long tour and additional activities. We are flexible and able to accommodate your requests for the party schedule.

• How is the Birthday Party structured?

  Petacular Parties are scheduled for two hours. We realize that each family has different interests and needs, so we are able to customize the party experience. Families that are interested in opening birthday presents and eating food during the party timeframe should consider leaving an appropriate amount of time in the schedule. The shelter tour lasts 30-60 minutes. Each party comes with a choice of one Pawesome Activity. Additional activities can be added on at $50.00 each. When booking your party, please be sure to communicate special requests.

• Can we bring our pet from home?

  While Lollypop Farm is a pet-friendly organization, we do not recommend bringing your pet from home to the Petacular Party.

• Does the birthday family need to bring anything to the party?

  We will decorate your private party room, host the party, and take care of clean-up. Families are invited to bring any food, drinks, paper products, and utensils as we do not provide these. Families may also choose to bring additional decorations to personalize the party room.

• Can we have food delivered?

  Of course! When you order the food, simply tell the delivery person to bring the food to the front desk at Lollypop Farm. Our front desk team will notify the party that the food has arrived.

• How early can the birthday family arrive?

  You are welcome to arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled party time to set up and do any additional decorating you would like.

• When do I make the payment?

  We collect a $50.00 non-refundable deposit to officially reserve all Petacular Parties. We will then be in touch to confirm your date/time, and any additional information needed prior to the party.
  Final payments are due the day of the party. Your party host will assist with the payment process.

• What is the maximum number of guests?

  The basic Petacular Party package is $200 for up to 20 people (children + adults). You are welcome to add additional guests at $10 each additional person, maximum of 30 people. The total number includes the guest of honor and any adults.

• What is the youngest age you will do a party for?

  We are open to every age! However, we will adjust the birthday party schedule for children under the age of six. We believe that it is important to have developmentally appropriate activities.

• What can we do if we would like guests to make donations instead of bringing gifts to the party?

  We are so grateful for donations, as Lollypop Farm is solely funded by private donations! Your support helps us continue to care for homeless animals and run important outreach programs for members of our community. Thank you for considering making a donation.
