We want to give a huge thanks to everyone who participated in and supported Proton Pets. We loved working together with others worldwide to support local pet charities, pantries, and shelters. We are even more excited to see how Proton Pets will grow in 2027. For now, here's a look at this year's Proton Pets initiative including all the participating groups, the charities they supported, and, of course, lots of furry (and some not) friends!
Proton Pets, spearheaded by Ghostbusters, Virginia, is a worldwide initiative dedicated to supporting pets and animal welfare in our communities. Through pet food drives and outreach, the program works to make a real difference for both pets and their owners while raising awareness about the importance of pet pantries.

Check out our original Zap & Trap Experience. Using Zip-String equipped wands you can bust ghosts on top of the city skyline by Zapping them and pulling them into the Trap.

We got up bright and early this morning to attend The Great Train Race in Fredericksburg. It was awesome to see so many happy young faces getting to race in an event just for them. We were super busy all morning and enjoyed hanging out with the Virginia Railway Express. Thanks to the event coordinators and all the attendees and their families who helped us make a big impact for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Virginia today.
The cats out of the ghost trap! Due to Pup-ular demand we have decided to keep the Proton Pets Merch out for one last weekend. This is your last fur-real last chance to get it until next year!
