It's important to let your clown express themselves through hair style or dress. Get them haircuts when they ask or when they need it, bathe them regularly, and take them clothes shopping occasionally. Remember, your clown knows its preferences best so listen to them

I don't see enough people talking about this, but your mimes still need candy! So do your rodeos! While rodeos can be fine with a diet of just nuts and deep-fried foods, a proper clown diet requires candy. There is also the common mistake that mimes can only eat black-and-white candy - which is completely untrue! Mimes and Rodeos need a well-rounded, colourful diet of candy to have the proper nutrients. By ignoring their clown nature and focusing solely on their subspecies, you are not giving your clowns the proper care they deserve.

Public service announcement!

If you see a service/emotional support clown in public, DO NOT INTERACT!! I’m tired of hearing story after story from my friends about how someone was distracting their service clown. If they have a vest on they’re working, end of story! Don’t try to get them to honk, show you a magic trick, and especially don’t try to feed them. Just pretend like they’re not there. Thank you

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.
