Hello

I recently graduated with a 2:1 in an Animal behaviour and welfare degree. Since the end of my course I have been subjecting myself to the hell that is 0 hours contracts with catering and hospitality companies, while engaging in an ongoing quest for an actual real life paying job that involved interracting with animals. Alas, there seems to be few around that I am not either overqualified for and voluntary or under-qualified for.

As much as I love animals after spending 16 years of my life and ?27,000 to get to this point, I would sure love to be paid at least minimum wage.

The use of the Dulwich forum is a long shot but I never underestimate the value of a grape-vine. Does anyone know of any jobs going involved in any sector of animal care or husbandry, no matter the pay. I do not have a car but do have an oyster card and an insatiable desire to be doing something with my life.

I am not picky.

dog-grooming, training companies or individuals I could gain experience with, rescue centres, cleaning up crap in kennels, work with wildlife, carrying around your dog strapped to my body like a baby etc.




All the best

    • Someone had a worse day than you. Be grateful not to be involved.
    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
