25.01.2022 The hoomans will never see me here

25.01.2022 Talia has created more amazing butterfly art! Available in store now!

24.01.2022 Its not the profit we make that counts, Its the change we leave thats important When starting Critters Up Close over 6 years ago, many were surprised of the plunge and risk I was about to take... Why? ... Leaving a corporate placed role earning triple figures to pursue a so called hobby business that "might not even work", I was leaving the safe zone.... So why did I do it? To make change! To pursue my true passion! If you dont wake up driven and challenged daily, excited for the future and take measured risks, are you living or merely just surviving? (Deep I know)... Is small business hard work? YES! Is it worth it to see a dream come to fruition, see the big smiles on childrens faces and make positive change? ABSOLUTELY! This would never be possible without you all, we have even bigger plans for the future and please ask for your continued support to help push us there... For this is just the start Thanks all
