Ropewalker rats and model guinea pigs are headliners of the Autumn Zooshow

To find an owner, to compete, to be cuddled, to show off in front of the public and to model for a photographer – this is not a complete list of things which rodents will engage in at the Zooshow in EXPOFORUM on September 2–3.

The organizers of the Rodent Celebration are regular participants in the Zoo Show. Each year they bring in Chilean squirrels (aka degou), chinchillas, guinea pigs, rats and hamsters to the show. Some animals already have owners and they are brought to the Zooshow to find a couple and take part in competitions. However, many animals are looking for a human. And they find one at the exhibition.

The first day of the expo is dedicated to rats. Rodent ropewalkers will give performances, take part in a jumping competition and an animal fashion show.

A professional rodent breeder will work at the event to examine your pet by appointment. He will tell if your pet has champion potential, the longest tail or the biggest ears.

“Angel Day” – the analog of “Secret Santa” – will be traditionally held for rodent owners at Zooshow. To take part in the holiday and receive a pleasant gift, one has to prepare a small surprise for another rodent owner. The draw will show who will get your gift and who will surprise you.

The second day at the rodent area is dedicated to guinea pigs. At the Zooshow main stage, the cute animals will compete for the title of “Fruit Eater”, parade around in fancy costumes and take part in a guinea pig hairstyling contest.

In the rodent area, there will be a table for cross-sharing handy items for pets. Cages, carriers, bowls, drinking bowls, hammocks and other things can be placed on the table. And if you like something on it – you can have it absolutely for free!

Before the show, each animal undergoes hygienic procedures: rodents’ tails are washed, claws are clipped and hair is treated. Animals participating in the event are allowed into the exhibition pavilion only after veterinary examination and submission of veterinary accompanying documents.

Event dates: September 2–3, 2023, 10:00 to 18:00.

Venue: 64/1 Peterburgskoe Shosse, 64/1, EXPOFORUM Convention and Exhibition Centre, Pavilion F.

During the event, free shuttle buses run every 20 minutes from Moskovskaya metro station to EXPOFORUM. Learn more at the official website of the project.

Passengers with pets are allowed to travel as long as they follow the rules of animal transportation.
