Store on the Middle Peninsula

The Pet Castle Poker Sale
The Pet Castle is excited to announce our first Pet Castle Poker Sale. If you have ever participated in a poker run or know anything about one, then you’ll catch on to this quickly. If you haven’t a clue what a poker run is, you’ll catch on just as quickly! We like to keep it fun here at The Pet Castle for our clients’ and their people.
Come in anytime during the month of February and make a qualifying purchase of at least $20 in awesome pet products. When you do, you will receive an envelope with a playing card in it. Only one card per day, though. Keep collecting cards all month long to build your best poker hand.
During the first two weeks of March, bring in your best five–card hand. (The more cards you collect, the better your chances at building a great hand! 2012 is a leap year, so you could collect as many as 29 cards to work with!) Wednesday, March 14th at 8:00pm will be the last day you can bring your best hand by.
As an added bonus, for every card brought back between March 1st and March 14th, we will donate $1 to the Peninsula Pet Pantry.
Now – what’s the prize for you? Glad you asked! The best hand will win a $100 shopping spree (in the form of a gift certificate) to The Pet Castle! Second best hand wins a $50 shopping spree, and the third best hand wins a $25 shopping spree.
The official rules will be posted in the store prior to February, and follow along on all the fun on our Facebook page here.
Fish Department
The Pet Castle has more than 50 tanks of freshwater tropical fish and cichlids. Staff members are always on hand to answer your questions, assist you in solving your aquarium's problems and to help you choose your new fish. We will also provide water tests free of charge.
Small Animals
The Pet Castle offers a wide variety of small animals that provide big companionship. Our small furries include locally bred rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, rats, mice and hamsters. We also offer ferrets, degus, sugar gliders and pygmy hedgehogs. Our customers are always welcome to stop by for a little furry “therapy.”
