🎄🎅Christmas starts next weekend! 🎅🎄

We're making up for a quiet Halloween with a very busy festive time. Not only do we have several private bookings to look forward to, we're also attending a number of public events! You can find us at Bwlchgwyn Village Hall, Northop Hall Cricket Club, or The Tivoli Venue before we attend a coffee morning to help raise some desperately needed funds for Idlewild Animal Sanctuary. Then we're finishing the year off with the amazing people at North Clwyd Animal Rescue! 😁

We've had a relatively quiet spooky season (by our standards) this year, because we've been busy doing something slightly different...being scare actors!

We've had an absolutely amazing time with
Escape Alive and AREA 51 at Gwrych Castle the last few weeks, we've made some great memories, amazing friends and some terrifying scares 🧟‍♀️ Thank you so much for having us!

We're absolutely gutted it's over, but we can't wait to get back to doing our J&S Exotics shows again! Now onto our second busiest time of the year! 🎅🎄

🕸🕷PLEASE READ🕷🕸

We get asked at almost every show we do whether we have brought a tarantula for people to hold. This is a fair and valid question. However, what you might not know is that there is a HUGE ongoing debate amongst tarantula owners and experts about whether you should hold them. We come down firmly on the "do not handle" side of the argument.

Tarantulas are extremely fragile creatures, and a fall from even just a few inches is enough to cause a fatal injury. It is not a quick death for them, but actually a very slow, very painful end to their life.

Many people and organisations similar to us, regularly handle their tarantulas without issue, but that does not lessen the risk, and tarantulas are not an animal that will ever get used to being handled. Some will tolerate it, but most likely, it will cause the animal unimaginable stress, particularly in a show/party environment.

We are, first and foremost, a rescue. We do shows to educate and to raise funds that allow us to help other animals. So we will never exploit an animal or cause it to suffer for financial gain.

We understand the appeal of handling a creature such as a tarantula, and while we fully support the idea of people facing their fears and learning more about these incredible creatures, we are not prepared to put them in a potentially dangerous situation to do so.

We will occasionally bring one to suitable shows for viewing/observation only but they will never be handled.

The welfare of all of our animals is paramount in everything we do 😊

What an absolutely AMAZING weekend at Buckley Ink!!!

Thank you to everyone who came to see us, you were all amazing! We had so many people be super brave and face their fears holding our snakes and bugs! We even managed to help a few people with their snake phobias with the help of our fabulous boys, Tony and Billy! 🐍

It's been a busy weekend for us helping to celebrate the birthdays of 3 amazing little animal lovers, thank you to everyone involved for allowing us to be a part of their day 😁

We also want to say a huge thank you to everyone that has booked us. Whether that's in the past or for future events. Every show/party we do helps us look after more animals that need our care. As we keep growing, the number of animals we are able to help grows too and that is all down to the support of those that have booked us, liked the page, shared a post, or anything else that spreads awareness of what we do. So on behalf of the animals, thank you 🙏😊

Our diary for the rest of the year is looking rather full. There are only a handful of dates available in September and October so message soon to avoid disappointment!

Update on the ferrets at picton cemetery:

We ( J&S Exotics - Animal Experiences ) currently have one of the ferrets safe after being brought to us on Thursday 8th. Another adult ferret and 3 kits were seen on Sunday 11th. We have been up 3 times so far with no signs at all. The ferret we currently have looks as though she has recently been nursing so we're not sure if she's the mum to the kits. They had been nesting in the shed but it seems as though they've been disturbed and have moved on. They will not have gone far though so if everyone could please keep an eye out and contact us immediately if you see them. If the kits have been without their mum since Thursday then we desperately need to reunite them. 🙏
