some people might recall that i have gone for a job with the rspca.... well it turns out that i might be working in the reptile section! ^_^ and that i might also be doing some fostering for them! (how's that, getting paid, to look after reptiles :p) of course it could all go T**s up, but i hope not. and if i do end up getting the job and doing the fostering... you realise i will be on here begging for advice every two seconds lol.... does that mean i will have to pay you all....? hmmmmmm

Excellent .
At least there will be one person in the RSPCA that knows about reptiles now Our nearest centre is too far away for me to offer my help . Having read a lot of threads concerning the RSPCA on the dark side it seems that more of us need to infiltrate the RSPCA and educate them properly concerning reptiles. |

the funny thing is that i wont be allowed in the reptile room without an escort " for health and safety/insurance reasons" (yet i can foster them? lol) and i wont be allowed to feed/water the tarantulas (despite having kept them for 10ish years myself, and the fact that everyone else who works there except my brother is terrified of them), all this i am not allowed to do, however i am allowed to enter a potetially dangerous dogs pen, on my own.... with only a walkie talkie as back up rofl. love it. |

Well done, I'd love to work for the RSPCA, my specialty is cats, but I think I'd end up lynching the first cruelty case person!!! |

Hi Wolf, no I was not sleep walking, but had just got in from a hectic late shift :-) It feels like I am sometimes though :-)
So Misscat, when do we find out if you landed the job ? Still got fingers crossed.
