G Force Event


On July 25th the Westview Regal Cinema held a family fun day for the premier of GForce, the new kid friendly guinea pig spy movie. The festivities included a moon bounce, face painting and games and prizes for the kids. There were also representatives from the animal community at the event. Their purpose was mainly to dispell the characteristics propogated by film of the wild and fun loving nature of guinea pigs. Kingsbrook Animal Hospital and Small Angels Rescue were both there with information and sample products to help give people some sense of what it means to properly feed and care for a guinea pig and that their nature is usually very timid and it takes a lot of time and reassurance to gain their trust. Small Angels rescue has a variety of small pets available for adoption that include guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, rats and mice. If you are in the market for a small pet it is always better to find out if a rescue group has an appropriate animal for you. Other groups reprensented at the event were Frederick County Humane Society and Loving Pet Nannies. Watch out for future movie premier events and Regal Cinema.
