Care advice

Choosing a small furry pet can be a great experience, especially for young children. They have a cute little animal to adore, whilst learning about the responsibilities of pet ownership. Guinea pigs, ferrets, gerbils, hamsters, chinchillas, rats, mice and other small furries require a lot of looking after so before you take your new pet home, it’s important to make sure whoever will be looking after it understands what’s involved.
