I would post this in the "Rabbits in Need" section but I cant!
basically I have started a new job involving taking a range of animals around schools to do educational displays. Normally on the last week of training I would drive up to scotland and be given my set of animals, including furries, but someone is leaving in bristol and so is giving me all of her creepy crawlies. as a result I need to find some furries who are either already well handled or friendly enough not to mind being stroked by children and are ok sat in their travel boxes in a (possibly noisy) classroom.
I am in South Wales, I've had a look on rabbit rehome but the two bunnies in wales are both skittish and it wouldn't be fair to a frightened bun.
Basically 1 need to get hold of a bunny, 2 guineas, 2 gerbils or 2 rats (although I can possibly get more than 2 of the gerbils and rats). New bunny will be bonded with my two (and if not, I will get him/her a companion) so lonliness is not a problem.
I'd rather ask you lot if there are any needy FRIENDLY animals about instead of going straight to a pet shop for babies.
if anyone knows anyone either in south wales or the bristol area (I have to fly from there for the next 3 weeks so could possibly pick them up on friday evenings) I would be really grateful. 'They do have to be handle-able or at least not too skittish/nippy as they'd get too stressed out with the work.
