Room With A Zoo
A Room with a ZOO is part of the Antwerp ZOO Society. Profits of our congresses and events immediately support our efforts on cherishing nature through animal welfare, education and awareness building. The Antwerp ZOO Society plays a leading role on the world stage in terms of scientific research and conservation.
Nine-year-old Julie decorates her room with a vast array of creatures, including a cat, a hamster, a fish, a turtle, a kitten, and a cranky hermit crab, all of which take over the house and her life, but she still wants more. "I have a zoo in my room. I need it.
Because I'm either going to be a vet when I grow up or a zookeeper." Indeed, to say Julie, nine, is obsessed with animals would be an understatement. Julie's first pet ever is a sickly cat from the animal shelter named Timmy-a disaster. The make-up-for-the-disaster pet is a hamster, and a motley menagerie soon follows.
