PARENTS in Andover are invited to bring their children to a series of free pet workshops at Pets at Home this half term, which will educate the next generation of pet owners on how to care for pets responsibly.

The Creature Care themed workshops take place from October 22 to November 2 and will teach kids how to care for different pets.

Children will learn about the five welfare needs and get the chance to interact with some pets in-store.

Mark Bladen, store manager at Pets at Home Andover, based in Enham Arch Retail Park, said: “Our Creature Care workshops are designed to teach young pet lovers about responsible pet ownership, whilst having lots of fun at the same time.

“Our expert colleagues will offer tips and advice on pet care, whilst making the workshops both interactive and educational - an ideal activity over the half term break!”
