An "All Pet" Expo, huh? As in, an expo for all pets? Well, this could get dangerous. Some people think mountain lions make good pets. We knew plenty of people in college who considered iguanas and marmosets to be acceptable house pets. What happens when the people with pet pythons cross paths with the people with plump, delicious pet hamsters? Lunchtime, that's what happens. Luckily, the event organizers offer more than a dozen stylish and affordable cages in five custom colors. Noah wishes he'd had it so good. Visit the All Pet Expo from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday in the Brown Lupton Exhibit Hall at Will Rogers Memorial Center, 3401 W. Lancaster Ave. in Fort Worth. General admission is $4, kids 6 and under get in free. Call 337-725-6365 or visit birdsandpets.com.
Sat., March 10, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sun., March 11, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
