Pet School CBBC

Ok so I know it's a children's programme but I came across it and it's fantastic! :D Basically teaching children how to care for pets properly. 9 children are hoping for a pet so they go to a "school" where they have lots of different animals and they learn how to look after them properly before their parents take on the commitment.

They have a fantastic bunny set up, a wendy house with a large attached run with lots of hay and toys. The young boy who got the job of looking after the rabbits thinks they're boring :lol: but it's better for him to find that out then before taking on any bunnies!

There's a cat room, ferrets, birds, reptiles, dogs and I just think the advice they are giving out is great.

Today they had a life size hamster cage and one of the children had to go inside it whilst someone did all the things a bad pet owner would do; prodding the hamster, playing loud music and pestering it. It was helping them to understand what NOT to do if you have a pet. :)

The majority of animals are there from rescues so it's promoting rescues too. :love:

It's great that there's finally a suitable pet caring programme on children's TV! (And I love it. :oops: )

saw abit of it the only bit i didnt agree with today was that they said a rabbit is a great starter pet to a dog
 
Yes it's good he realised they're 'boring' before he got one...

My mum always says don't I get bored the amount of time I spend just sitting with Ludo, but I just enjoy watching him hopping around being a bunny. :lol:
