Kids and Snakes
We have many pets in our home – some are furry, some are scaly and some are wet. They amount to 35 animals of 7 different species. That’s a lot! We decided to make a business out of it, and here is how my first job went.
It was our son’s new primary school teacher who suggested it to us, we had not thought of it. As we were having his nursery school interview, he mentioned the animals, and we told her about them all. You should take them around schools, she said, We pay £350 for a visit from the animal man!
Well we love animals, and we love sharing our animals, especially with children. Kids just love critters! So being the enterprising person I am, and having a love for the subject, and needing to make money to support my family – as I am still signed off sick with health problems – I set to work straight away. I enquired about the viability, I looked at other websites selling the service and realised we had the capability between us to do this successfully.
