We also have a reptile room with some special reptiles for you to come and meet! We try our best to rescue and rehome as many animals as we can. If we cannot find a suitable forever home for our furry friends they will continue to live with us therefore there’s always new furries for you to meet. This means we have an ever growing family of new and different animals. We actively promote animal welfare and advise and educate people, where we can, in animal care and husbandry.
