let me introduce myself

[watom]

My name is Nicola and I live in a small town in north Shropshire.
I was fortunate to be gifted a hermanns last year. We did a lot of research and support from his rescue mommy (a veterinary nurse who had rescued many) she was a great help and is still there if needed. I have since joined the bcg. I think the creatures are so misunderstood and find "little man" fascinating, he is still a baby at 6.
At Xmas my hubby offered his workshop to me so we can extend our family I have no other animals as I have allergies but the torts seem to suit me. I will add pics on this threw of our current enclosure and the cheeky fella.
I am hopefully adopting a leopard in a month or so, but will have room for more.
