Another chance to take photos of pets with Santa Paws

PET owners will have another opportunity to take some special Christmas photos when Santa Paws makes a return to a Wells pet shop.

His visit was so popular last year that Nigel and Heather Derrick, the owners of Natural Pets of Wells in Queen Street, have asked Santa Paws to visit again this December.

His grotto will be created at the back of the store where people will be able to meet Santa and take pictures of their pets with him.

All of the pets will be given a healthy treat and there will be a present for the owners to take home. There will be no charge, say Nigel and Heather, they are doing it to spread a bit of Christmas cheer. The shop staff will be there as elves to add to the Christmas spirit.

“It’s a bit of fun to reward customers for their loyalty, and to welcome new customers,” said Heather.

Santa Paws will be at Natural Pets of Wells from 10.30am-1pm and 2pm-4pm on Saturday, December 7, and Saturday, December 14. There is no need to book.

“All friendly pets are welcome to come and see Santa Paws,” said Heather. “There will be plenty of Christmas gift ideas in the shop as well if people would like to stop and browse.”
