Pros
Educating kids and adults about a range of animals. Pay is ok if you're only working 1 hour and not travelling far each day.
Cons
Pay is the same no matter how many hours worked that day or distance travelled. Don't reimburse miles under 130 and even after they only give 35p per mile. They make you travel multiple hours each way to events which isn't fair on either you or your animals. You have to keep multiple large boxes of equipment for science events. You have to pay for liability insurance, council licensing, animals, animal food, lightning and upkeep, all of which are barely covered by what you earn. They encourage keeping rabbits in hutches - any responsible rabbit owner will know they need 2-3m space minimum to roam. They don't specify to customers that people who work for them have their own animals and not the generic pictures listed on the website, resulting in anger directed at you in some instances. Husband of the couple who runs it is gross and immature - joked about 'r*ping' customers phones with a Google review tag so they're forced to leave a review. Avoid working for these people at all costs.
