If you're attending Shelf Gala today don't forget your suncream! And make sure to drink lots of fluid! And please please please please LEAVE YOUR DOGS AT HOME!!

I work part time at pets at home and last night a dog was rushed into the vets with heat stroke. Unfortunately he didn't make it 😔 it's really not worth the risk!!

♥️ Stay safe everyone!

FAQ Friday!
We do get a lot of questions asked at our events and sessions, which is absolutely fantastic as it shows people truly are interested in our wonderful creatures!

For today's FAQ - "do you name them all?"

In a word - yes!

However not every single creature has an individual name. That would be damn near impossible 😂

The isopods are collectively known as 'The Pods' I have 13 species in total - with each enclosure having at least 100 individuals!

The blue death feigning beetles are collectively known as 'The Blueberries' just because I can't tell them apart..

The Cockroaches are named Colin if male, and Connie if female.. Again far too many to name individually!

All the snails, millipedes, stick/leaf insects, tarantulas, scorpions, spiders, katydids, moths, slugs, beetles, mantis, crickets and crabs have individual names - that's a lot to remember 😂

The only ones that don't are all the 'babies'.. We have baby stick insects, snails, millipedes and then the beetle grubs and caterpillars

If you want to know the names of any of the creatures comment below! 😁

Tonight we say goodbye to Atlas, the mature male Mexican Flame Knee Tarantula

He died peacefully tucked up in his favourite corner.

He was brought in for breeding, you'll have seen the video I posted back in February.. He was never for public viewing.

Time will tell if the mating was successful - they're a very hard species to breed and typically it was the first one I'd ever attempted! He was such a gentle soul, and will be missed massively 😔

He lived well right up until his last day, eating like a champion, but sadly we can't all live forever.

See you again some day sweet boy ❤️🖤

RIP Atlas xx

Unfortunately today we've lost a legend 😔 not a part of the business.. But a massive part of our family - Quinn the ferret sadly declined quite rapidly over the weekend.

She was 6 years old, so today I make the decision to let her go peacefully.

She was an absolute whirlwind and the sweetest lil ferret ever.. If you had the opportunity to meet her you know exactly what I mean.

She is going to be missed massively

Til we meet again
