Everybody Does This…..

Do you sometimes resist new animal keeping information because you worry that it will contradict what you currently do or highlight what you don’t then suddenly you find the guilt goes through the roof? This is normal and very human.

Much like parenting, making mistakes is an inevitable part of pet keeping – especially with one’s as complex as exotics. There’s still a lot we don’t know about these animals, therefore information is constantly changing

But.... good keeping is not about perfection, it's about, moving forward, being able to take in new information and growth.

Change and accepting our old practices were perhaps ‘not the best’ can make us uncomfortable temporarily but it's also very healing, especially knowing your giving your animals the best you can.  

The more we openly talk about this, the more normalized it will become!
