A Bit About Me!

 Hi, I'm Evelyn!

I am currently 25 years old and last year I decided to go back to college and take a course on animal management. At first I wanted to be a veterinary nurse, but after learning about legislation I now want to be in the animal welfare sector such as inspecting and rescuing. 

I am a mumma to two hamsters and a crested gecko, my hamsters are Reginald who is nearly two years old and Pumpkin who is 2 years and 3 months old. My Gecko is Gizmo and she is 1 year and 3 months old.

I live in the midlands in the UK but I originally grew up in Yorkshire and moved here to be with my partner. I currently volunteer for the Greyhound Trust as just a general volunteer and a social media manager, I also volunteered for the RSPCA for a while.

I have a YouTube channel and an Instagram where I make informative videos on animal welfare and share the lives of my wonderful pets including my past foster dog.

I hope you enjoy this blog which has my own little twist on it, and if anyone needs me my DM's are always open on Instagram.

The Dangers of Animals on Social Media

 Have you ever scrolled through TikTok or Instagram and seen cute videos of people with their unusual pets such as jaguars, squirrels, and even raccoons?

Most exotic animals will be sourced from overseas and are normally stolen from their parents as a baby which is very distressing to both the parents and the stolen animal. The other way which is just as dark is when animals get taken into captivity to breed offspring that will then be sold as pets. Usually the welfare conditions are not good at all here and the captured animals are just used as breeding machines for human profit. When a customer has received the exotic pet, they normally get them on a whim without knowing anything about the sp...

Why I will Never Be Vegan

 I applaud veganism, the act of not eating/using animal products as a protest for animal welfare. If I could go vegan I definitely would! The only problem is that I am autistic AF and have always struggled with my diet, some may call it ARFID but I just call it being a funny bugger. The thing is I am repulsed by food I haven't tried, but I can't try it due to that reason. Ever since I was a toddler and I developed this attitude towards food my diet consists of chicken, pork, some beef, potato, and sweets. The only veg I eat is potato and I can't stand the texture of fruit, that is something I have tried but was instantly repulsed, I also tired kelp because my hamsters were trying it and honestly it tasted like garden weeds!! If I stopped eating meat, my health would deteriorate as I wouldn't be getting my correct nutritional needs, I currently take vitamins but they aren't enough for my body. However I don't eat dairy, only vegan substitutes as I don't belie...
