For all the pet lovers out there - a new pet store opens tomorrow in Forest City! The shop is located at 141 Thomas Street -at the end of Thomas Street near Trade Street, and they will carry birds, fish, reptiles, and small animals. Dogs and cats won't be left out, as the shop will stock food and items for them as well as the animals previously mentioned.

The shop's grand opening will be Friday, Oct. 30 and Saturday, Oct. 31, with hours from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm.

Just in time for Halloween, a Pet Costume Contest will be held between 4:00 & 9:00 pm both days. Jimmy Gibson, mayor of Forest City, will be the official judge with the First prize winner receiving a year's supply of pet food and 2nd & 3rd place receiving a $50 and $25 in-store gift certificate, respectively.

The Community Pet Center will be in attendance with rescue doggies & kitties available for adoption!

If you can't make it this weekend, stop in during the week and browse the large selection of items and food for your pet. Normal operating hours are Monday-Saturday 10:00 am -6:00 pm, with the shop closing at 5:00 pm on Wednesdays.

A big WELCOME to you with wishes for lots of success!

In addition to Forest City Pets, there are two other shops now located on Thomas Street - Time After Time (antiques, collectibles and clothing consignment) and Good Earth Pottery, which offers pottery classes as well as the sale of handmade pottery by local potters!

(for those of you who aren't familiar with Thomas Street, it's the street that runs beside Stallings Jewelers and connects Main Street & Trade Street; or it is one street west of Horn's Garden Center on the left if you're traveling on Trade Street- almost across the street from Off the Beaded Path!)
