Wish List

We need you!
MAJICAL MINIATURES WISH LIST:
We are in constant need of everyday items here at Majical Miniatures. With over 200 animals living at the rehab center we go through a ton of food, cleaning & medical supplies every month. Our wonderful staff has put together a "wish list" of items that they never seem to have enough of, plus some larger dream items. You don't have to spend a fortune to help make a difference. A roll of Bounty paper towels or a trash can with wheels (Jenna said this is number one on her small item list), would be greatly appreciated. Every little bit helps!

We need you!



Jack
At Majical Miniatures, we take in exotic, farm and wild animals for all sorts of reasons. Some are injured or abandoned, others neglected or their families simply cannot care for them any more. Whatever the reason, we pride ourselves on giving every animal that comes through our door the best possible care. It does not matter if they are here for a short visit before finding their forever home, released back into their natural wild habitat or if they are here to stay, we love them all. Providing food, shelter and medical care for these animals is expensive. That is why we need you!
 You can help by volunteering, donating or simply spreading the word. You do not have to be an animal expert to volunteer; all you need is a love of animals and a desire to help. You can choose to help directly with the animals by cleaning cages, feeding and spending time with them or you could help with yard and maintenance work. If you would like to find out more about volunteering visit our website

We understand that not everyone has the time to volunteer so we offer an alternative way to help...shopping! We have partnered with RSPetc.com, a local Bradenton business who sells fun jewelry items (enter code “mini” at checkout and Majical Miniatures will receive 50% of your total purchase cost ); YoungAgain, an all natural pet food manufacturer and Zazzle.com/majiminis our very own store where you can purchase mugs, t-shirts and more with our logo. What better way to show your support! A portion of each purchase is donated directly to Majical Miniatures. Of course, if shopping is not your thing then you can simply visit our website to donate using paypal or donate at connecttocharity.com where you can watch our progress in reaching our fundraising goal.
The simplest way to show your support without spending a dime is to share with your friends. The more people that know about Majical Miniatures the more animals we can help. We have made it easy for you to share with everyone you know through our website, facebook, twitter, merchantcircle, blogger and soon a youtube channel and monthly e-newsletter!
