There is an art to approaching animals so as not to spook them or cause them to be upset.

One great way that you can do this is to be as calm as possible when you are around them.

A second good way is to approach them from the front so that you don’t scare them.

There are a surprising number of animals who do get frightened easily and so it is important for us as their carers to take note of those needs and make sure that they are catered for.

The real art in approaching animals is to make sure that you do it both thoughtfully and with good grace and then not only will they be friendly, but you will salso be happy and safe in the knowledge that you have not done them any harm.
