New kittens & puppies!

New kittens & puppies!

July 12, 2011 By admin

There are new arrivals on the farm this week including three cute little kittens. Two little black ones which arrived yesterday and one little white and black one that we took in after he strayed into someone’s house. They love climbing out of their pen for a cuddle!

There is also five new pups, three miniture jack russells and two wire haired terriers. They are so friendly and get so excited when they see all the children that want to hold them! There is so much to do and see at Glendeer, everyone here is really enjoying the sun at the moment, even the animals are sun bathing  ; )

Easter on the farm

May 4, 2011 By admin

001Easter weekend was a fantastic weekend on Glendeer Pet Farm. The weather was beautiful and we were very busy welcoming families from all over Ireland who had come to enjoy the sunshine and see all the new baby animals. A fun egg hunt was held on the farm and kids really loved this. The new baby animals were thrilled to see all the visitors and they put on a great show! We are delighted with the great weather these last few weeks and hope it continues for the rest of the summer. We are busy now taking bookings from school tours and other groups. We hope to see you on the farm soon!

Pets on the farm

March 24, 2011 By admin

Glendeer-Pet-Farm-9There are lots of animals to meet on the farm like our Llama from South America, ostrich from Africa, Vietnamese pot belly pigs, deer, goats, emu, donkeys, and lots more animals & birds. You will also get the chance to meet our smaller animals that love to be petted like our rabbits, puppies and kittens. These are a favourite amongst our little visitors!
There is a large outdoor play area with plenty of entertainment for kids of all ages, including the very popular glider swing.  Also, because of our very unpredictable Irish weather there is an indoor sand area with diggers & a slide to keep the children entertained in any weather.

Glendeer Pet Farm is an award winning 12 acre open farm which is owned and run by the O’Connell family. It opened its’ gates to the public in April 1991 with over 50 species of animals and birds. Since the pet farm opened it has been featured on numerous TV programmes and has won several awards. Situated just 5miles from Athlone town, (Exit 13 on the Motorway and follow the signs for Drum) it is a must see when in the area.

Children love the excitment and the adventure of a visit to Glendeer.

It is an unforgetable, interactive experience where you can pet and even hold, the animals, such as pups, rabbits & kittens. Children also get a bag of food to feed some of the animals such as goats, sheep, emu, deer, donkeys, cows, llama and lots more. Last season we got monkeys, wallabies and tortoises!
