OUR CRITTER STORY
​
Irma Klassen was on a mission to find locally raised crawling critters to feed her bearded dragon Gus and her hamster Theo.
​
Julie Wisniewski has been dealing with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), which has led her to have lots of time on her hands from being unable to work.
​
After many long conversations, Julie found a passion for crawling critters and wanted to help Irma feed her pets the best food they could find. After a local pet store closed the only option for healthy life feeders was to raise them themselves, and so began crawling critters. She started breeding bugs as a hobby and it got a little out of hand.
​
Along the way, Julie and Irma needed a lot of help as Julies FND progresses and Irma works full-time. Julie's daughter Alysha has become the proud owner of the business. She handles all the technical things as well as order packaging, invoice making and ordering.
