First Steps: Enquiry and Adoption Appointment
First Steps: Enquiry and Adoption Appointment
To adopt or to explore the idea of adopting an animal from us, we encourage people to come and meet the animals (and us) via an appointment. This way we can discuss the different options available and help you make a choice which is right for you and right for the animal.
Please note: If you live quite a distance away and are interested in adoption, we can discuss potential alternatives before you make your trip to us.
If you decide that reptiles aren’t for you, we are happy that you have been able to explore the idea without feeling pressured and making ultimately the wrong decision.
Key Considerations:
- If you are not the homeowner, do you have permission of the homeowner or landlord to keep a reptile at the premises?
- Are you 18 years old or above? Our minimum age of adoption is 18 years old.
- Lifespan: please note we are looking for permanent homes, and so please don’t be offended when asked about your future plans. Many reptiles can live in excess of 15 years in captivity!
- Cost: can you afford veterinary treatment should the need arise? These are specialist animals, and it can be more costly to attain veterinary treatment.
We DO NOT re-home to tub racking systems.
We are extremely thankful that you have chosen to rehome from us.
