 My name is Leanne and animals are my life. I completed an ND in animal management and was training to be a vet nurse until I developed occupational asthma and had to make the hard decision to leave. I would like to go into animal behaviour in future but have put all that on hold to get married and have a baby. I volunteered at a sanctuary for years and loved working with all sorts of dogs. My main interests are exotics and I have a lot of pets (mostly rescues) that include dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, hamsters, mice, snakes, lizards, fish and giant snails!

Hi, my name is Lesa and I am 33. I was a solicitor but gave it up to be a full time Mum to my two children. Like everyone else here I am animal mad. I have 7 guinea pigs, 4 cats and a tank of goldfish. I am currently in the process of adopting 2 lop rabbits. I am very keen to promote the welfare of smaller animals such as guinea pigs and I also moderate on a guinea pig forum which aims to encourage adoption of guinea pigs in rescue shelters.
