The NPRS will be attending the National Pet Show at Birmingham NEC on the 4th and 5th November 2017.

The National Pet Show is one of the UK’s largest pet shows in the country. Having run a large show already this year in London, the next show will be hosted in Birmingham’s NEC.

The NPRS are attending this year to spread the word about Pouched Rats. We will be bringing some Pouched Rats along for people to meet. We will be talking to the public about their care, the do’s and don’ts and what makes them very unique animals to own.

Dr Ross Cooper will be attending and signing copies of his book (we can’t sell books at this show unfortunately but you can purchase a copy here

The National Pet Show is an unmissable event for pet owners, lovers and families. Get up close with a whole host of animals from dashing dogs and aquatic wonders to fabulous felines and radient reptiles, and so many more! Highlights of the event include; Noel Fitzpatrick Live (hosted by Professor Noel Fitzpatrick the Supervet), Top Cats competition, SuperDogs Live (presented by TV’s Michaela Strachan), kids “Teepee” talks and animal handling sessions, the Secret Rabbit Garden and more than 90 educational talks and live performances. As well as all of this, you can catch show-stopping performances, and spoil your pet rotten with the spectacular shopping aisles. Amongst all the fun, at the heart of the show are messages of responsible pet ownership and animal welfare.
