I've Seen Way Too Many Clowns That Are CLEARLY Stressed From Being Kept In Improper Enclosures - Tumblr Posts

I'd just like to tack on a reminder that clowns are NOT low maintenance pets in the slightest! Most breeds require a LOT of money, space, and time to upkeep properly. If you cannot afford/ don't have enough space for a circus tent, permanent bouncy house, and ball pit, then you should spring for a teacup or porcelain clown!! Please don't get a full size breed that you cannot take care of!!

Improper clown housing

Enclosures like these do not provide the same comfort and safety that bouncy castles, and bouncy houses, and ball pits provide. Getting a bubble like this for your clown because “you like the aesthetic” is cruel. The see through bubble will make your clown feel improperly hidden or and safe which can lead to severe stress and panic attacks. This bubble will provide little to no enrichment for you clown. It can also be a hazard, some clown breeds have poor eyesight similar to how birds can’t see glass and have poor depth perception. This is why having brightly colored and padded walls such as in a bouncy house are crucial for the safety of your clowns. Clowns deserve a place to feel comfortable and safe. These bubble houses should not be used as a replacement for a bouncy house or ball pit. Sadly I have seen them be marketed as a two in one replacement for both. New clown owners need to be aware of this and steer clear of these.
