0:00:02 > 0:00:06- Welcome back to Pet School. Two unforgettable weeks.- Oh!
0:00:06 > 0:00:09Nine pet-crazy kids.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12- I'd like a dog.- I'd really like a scorpion or a snake.
0:00:12 > 0:00:17- I would like a rabbit. - And 51 hungry mouths to feed.
0:00:17 > 0:00:21But can Pet School give our nine Pet Heads the skills
0:00:21 > 0:00:24to become responsible pet owners?
0:00:24 > 0:00:25Sit, Kiki. Sit.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28When term's out, will they persuade their parents
0:00:28 > 0:00:30to get them a pet of their own?
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Is he going to get a pet?
0:00:33 > 0:00:37I'm Aaron Craze. You ain't going to want to miss a minute.
0:00:56 > 0:01:01After two amazing weeks, Pet School closes its gate for the last time.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05It's been an incredible journey for our Pet Heads.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08They all share the same dream, to have a pet of their own at home.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12The one thing standing in their way is their parents.
0:01:12 > 0:01:17The chances of Liam getting a pet are about 10-15%.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21I don't think Tej should have a pet because I don't like them.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25When they arrived, most of them had no experience with pets.
0:01:25 > 0:01:26SCREAMS
0:01:26 > 0:01:28Some looked like they wouldn't go the distance.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30I don't think I'll last a week.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34But as each day passed, they learnt to be top pet people...
0:01:34 > 0:01:35You've done it.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37..and conquered personal challenges.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39This is actually really cool.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42But it was working as a team that kept the pets looked after,
0:01:42 > 0:01:44whatever pets they were.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Today the parents return to Pet School
0:01:48 > 0:01:51to tell our Pet Heads what the final decision will be.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56As they've discovered, looking after a pet is a big responsibility.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Which of our Pet Heads have shown that they're ready?
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Which of them need more time to show they're capable?
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Pet School has done all it can to help them be perfect pet owners,
0:02:07 > 0:02:10but it's the parents that will have the final word.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18But before the Big Decision,
0:02:18 > 0:02:23it's time to meet up for our final ever assembly.
0:02:24 > 0:02:30- It's the last day of Pet School. - ALL: No!
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- But you've had an amazing journey. - ALL: Yeah!
0:02:36 > 0:02:40- Listen, guys. Later on, it's the Big Decision.- ALL: Ooh!
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Some of you will get pets, some of you might not.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- CHRIS: Dom, dom, dom! - It's a big one, isn't it?
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Before that is Pet Practice, as we do every morning.
0:02:48 > 0:02:53But first, I've got another little guest coming in to say hello.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- Yes!- How about that one? Come in, Reena!- Reena!
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Daisy's going to be a big help to a couple of our Pet Heads later.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02- Wow.- Hello. This is Daisy.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05It's a big old dog, isn't it?
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Daisy was taken into a rescue home
0:03:06 > 0:03:09after being neglected by her previous owners.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13When she was poorly, they refused to have her looked at by a vet.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Very bad pet practice.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19OK. Pet Practice today, there's a lot to do before we leave.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22A group of you are going to do the inside.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24So we're going to have Ysabel, Tej, Micah and Rachel,
0:03:24 > 0:03:26you're going to do the inside.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31That includes the exotics, mice, rats, hamsters, cats and the dogs.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34The outside's got to be done as well, before we leave.
0:03:34 > 0:03:39Liam, Giulia, Sam, Sophie and Chris, you'll be doing that. OK?
0:03:39 > 0:03:44That's the goats, chickens, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets and birds.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46- Everyone fine with that? - ALL: Yeah.- Good, good.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Don't forget, the Big Decision today.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51It's time to make an impression. All right?
0:03:51 > 0:03:56Remember that today, looking after your pet buddies.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Most of all, enjoy yourself and have fun. It's the last day.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01This is it. Final push.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Bananas?- ALL: Split.- Yes. Off you go.- See you.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12It's Pet Practice ten, our most extreme one yet.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17Clean and feed every single animal in just 45 minutes.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19It's a humungous task.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Two weeks ago, there's no way they could have coped with that.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Rachel, Ysabel, Micah and Tej are in charge of the indoor animals.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Right, their final task is...
0:04:35 > 0:04:39It's their toughest Pet Practice yet, but this team looks confident.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Let's get moving next door.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- Guys, if we're going to the exotics, I think we might need locusts.- Yep.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48- There's nothing else, is there? - There's live locusts in here?- Yeah.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Tej is catching on a bit late there.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53- OK. Let's go and do the bearded dragon first.- Let's go.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Guys, we've got five minutes to do this.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Rachel and Ysabel have experience with Brett,
0:04:57 > 0:05:00so they show how it's done.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- One last locust and it's time to move on.- That's six.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05We've really, really got to go now.
0:05:06 > 0:05:11- Small furries. Quick, quick, quick. - Small furries room.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14And it's all go with Giulia, Sophie, Chris, Liam and Sam,
0:05:14 > 0:05:17as they start their final Pet Practice.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Liam heads off to take care of the ferrets.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23The rest of the team head towards the goats.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Today's Pet Practice involves...
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Chop chop. Quickly, man.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37It's time to put all the skills they've learnt into action.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- OK, Chris.- Yeah?- You know how to do this, right?- Yeah.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42What are you doing?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Yeah. Chris was top buddy with the goats.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47He even showed Daniel Roche how to walk them.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- We'll do the bedding. - OK, we'll do the bedding.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- Shall we just take this thing out? - Look at Sam go.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Take everything out of the wheelbarrow
0:05:58 > 0:06:01before you start shovelling.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03OK. There's a hay net over there somewhere.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07- Shove a bit more in there. - Two minutes. OK. Come on, let's go.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11They're doing well, but I'm worried. Time is tight.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14- OK, where's Sam with the water? - I'm here.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Here it is.- What's happening, guys? - ALL: Hi.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22You're still on this? What have you had to do?
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Change the water, change the bedding, change the food.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26- And how far have you got? We're finished.- Done.
0:06:26 > 0:06:32You're done? Cor, you've still got to do the birds,
0:06:32 > 0:06:37the guinea pigs, the rabbits and the chickens in about 20 minutes.
0:06:37 > 0:06:42- OK, OK. Come on, guys. Let's split up, OK?- Come on!
0:06:42 > 0:06:47Good idea, Giulia. Sharing the workload will get the job done.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48On to the inside team.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Our Pet Heads have come a long way in just two weeks
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- and I reckon they'll complete the task.- Guys.- Yeah?
0:06:54 > 0:06:58I don't think we'll have enough time to do everything.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02I'll go to the dog room, so will you guys be OK with everything else?
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Yeah, that's fine. - Are you 100% sure?- Yeah.- Yes.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06- See you in a minute. - Yeah, see you guys.- OK.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10See what you did there, Tej. Off to see Kiki.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Rachel's cracking on with the mouse house.- Urgh!
0:07:13 > 0:07:17- And she's making short work of it. - Sorted out the mice.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Rachel's got really stuck in at Pet School.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Brett wasn't the right pet for her.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26It's just as interesting to just read about him or look at a photo.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29But she's still done her best to persuade her parents
0:07:29 > 0:07:31she's a responsible pet person.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- Got the food.- Back inside.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36- What's going on here?- Help! Help!
0:07:36 > 0:07:39We can't put the rat food in the rat cage.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43- Guys, come on. Look, I'll hold it, you put your hand in.- Use the top.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- You poured it all over his barnet. - Some on there.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Time's running out. Where's Tej when you need him?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51He's gone to do the dogs.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Typical. At least he's doing something.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57You two, go and do the cats, cos that needs to be done.
0:07:57 > 0:08:02The girls head for the cats. Micah stays behind to finish off.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Liam's finished taking care of business with the ferrets.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06There you are. Where did you go?
0:08:06 > 0:08:10They're also his latest pet buddies and he seems fond of them.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13That's how you hold them. The front behind the arms.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15I've got an egg in my pocket.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18It's going to be a treat for them, so let's see what they do.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22Yep, an egg once a week is a great addition to their regular diet.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Aw. It's great to see Liam bonding with another kind of pet.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30The outdoor team has finished with the goats
0:08:30 > 0:08:33and moves swiftly on to the next part of the task.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37- Who's doing the chickens?- Me. - We've got guinea pigs.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39We were slow on the goats but we're speeding up.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Chris and Sam do the heavy work.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Because of their Pet School training,
0:08:43 > 0:08:46they really know what they're doing now.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Done all the guinea pig food.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54OK, the rabbits are done.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Chris puts down some fresh water for the chickens
0:08:58 > 0:08:59and Giulia empties it again.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03- Oh, this is for the water. - You emptied the water out.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Sorry, I didn't know.
0:09:05 > 0:09:10Sophie won't leave without making sure the bird cages are sorted.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14She was voted top pet carer at Pet School.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17and worked hard at everything we'd thrown at her.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21I reckon any pet she'd been given would get five-star treatment.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25I thought they would have got further than the chickens.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28All they've done is the rabbits and the guinea pigs
0:09:28 > 0:09:30and I think they need to quicken up a bit,
0:09:30 > 0:09:33because we don't want to fail the task.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35- Chris has found lunch. - Are they warm?
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Two eggs? That's me sorted then. - My chicks.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Oh, chickens are out!
0:09:41 > 0:09:44With two minutes to go, for the second time this week,
0:09:44 > 0:09:46the chickens are on the loose.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49No, no, no! Shed! Guys!
0:09:49 > 0:09:51One cheeky chicken plays hide-and-seek.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55- We've got to get the others. Guys. - Got it, got it. Come on.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59But these champion chicken wranglers soon get them back in the coop.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Outdoor task complete.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Over in the cat room, Ysabel and Rachel are really up against it
0:10:05 > 0:10:08but nothing can stop them now, can it?
0:10:08 > 0:10:12Rachel, we've got bad news. The cats have knocked the kitty litter
0:10:12 > 0:10:15- with the poo in it all over the carpet.- Bad kitties.
0:10:15 > 0:10:20Oh. I should go and get started on the one that isn't tipped over.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Rachel, we've got five minutes.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29- Where's Tej?- I don't know, probably still doing the dogs.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33- I think I've done a good job.- Tej is getting on with his doggy duties.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34I've brought you fresh water.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38Tej and Kiki are one of the pet buddying successes of Pet School.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42Tej has never had a pet. From day one, they were inseparable.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- He even taught her new tricks. - Sit, Kiki. Sit.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49But will his parents consider getting their first family pet?
0:10:49 > 0:10:50I love you.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56- Tej is done with the dog room. - Yes. Good girl.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00How are the girls getting on, cleaning up the moggies' muck?
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- I've done my share of the work. - Thank you.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Ysabel's still grafting like a trooper.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Rachel's taken the chance to read up on some more pet practice.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13She just can't get enough. But the job gets done.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Indoor animal task complete.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19They couldn't have done this two weeks ago. They've pulled it off
0:11:19 > 0:11:22and cleaned the whole gaff in record time.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Unbelievable.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Last night, I gave our Pet Heads reports
0:11:32 > 0:11:33to take home to their parents.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- Let's follow those up with some phone calls.- Do it.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38RINGING
0:11:38 > 0:11:41- 'Hello?'- It's Reena and Aaron from Pet School.
0:11:41 > 0:11:46- Did you get Giulia's report? - 'Yes, I got the report.'
0:11:46 > 0:11:49How do you feel about her bonding so well with the rats?
0:11:49 > 0:11:51'I didn't expect that.'
0:11:51 > 0:11:54Do you think he's ready for a pet? He has been a bit nervous.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56She's made great progress with her fears, hasn't she?
0:11:56 > 0:12:01'She faced her fears with the snake and was very proud of herself.'
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Hiya. How are you?
0:12:03 > 0:12:06He's really improved through the course of these two weeks.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08She's a great leader.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12I think everyone, as well as the pets, responds to her really well.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- Hello, Michelle. - 'Hello. How are you?'
0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Where's he going? You said don't run.- Just let it run.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21He did a really good job with the goats.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24'I'm surprised he's looking after goats
0:12:24 > 0:12:26'but I'm glad he's doing well with them.'
0:12:26 > 0:12:30I'm a bit worried that he's over-bonded, bonded a bit too much.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32We'll see you tomorrow at the Big Decision.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37- 'OK, all right.'- Toodle-pip. Bye. - 'Thank you. Bye.'
0:12:37 > 0:12:41Coming up. After two weeks of Pet School, it's the final farewells.
0:12:41 > 0:12:42I'm going to miss you so much.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45As our Pet Heads say goodbye to our animal residents
0:12:45 > 0:12:47for the very last time.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- Bye, ferrets. - And it's crunch time for the team.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Who will be lucky enough to get a pet of their own?
0:12:58 > 0:13:02Yesterday, best pet carer Sophie gave all the Pet Heads new buddies
0:13:02 > 0:13:05- to take care of for the final day. - Liam, how are you?
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Reena and I feel that Liam still needs more time
0:13:08 > 0:13:10around dogs to build his confidence.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14He's going to spend some time with Daisy, our visiting mastiff cross.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17I'm afraid that, if I run, she'll take me
0:13:17 > 0:13:19and I'll be dragged across the grass.
0:13:19 > 0:13:24You walk the dog, not the other way round. Liam's great with dogs.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Problem is, he's not great at looking after his pet cats at home.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29I've got three cats.
0:13:29 > 0:13:34I do play with the cats and comb them but I can't clean the poo.
0:13:35 > 0:13:36Mum and Dad are concerned
0:13:36 > 0:13:41- about whether he can look after any animal properly.- Sit.- Good.- Down.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45- Ah, Daisy definitely deserves a treat now.- Well done.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47- You're almost there. - She nearly did it.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49- Hi, Liam.- Hi, Micah.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Reena also wants to see how Micah is with Daisy.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56- Yeah. Daisy, look.- Are you going to give her a cuddle?- Sit.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Good girl.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Oh, my days, she's so cute.
0:14:00 > 0:14:05Daisy, look. What's this? What's this? Good girl.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Micah came here wanting a Staffie,
0:14:07 > 0:14:10but he was really nervous around all the pets.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Over two weeks, his confidence has grown
0:14:13 > 0:14:15but it's his mum and dad who will decide
0:14:15 > 0:14:17if he's ready for his own pet.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Whatever happens with the Big Decision,
0:14:23 > 0:14:26both these lads should be proud of themselves.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29Daisy, Daisy, Daisy.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33(You all right?)
0:14:33 > 0:14:37Ysabel built a really strong bond with KitKat and, luckily for her,
0:14:37 > 0:14:39the huggable hamster is awake.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46Do you want a little run around? Yeah, I bet you do. OK.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Yep. Time to give KitKat a bit of exercise.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52She's quite fast.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57- She's walking on two feet. - Four feet, Ysabel.- Four feet.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02It's been amazing, having her as a pet buddy.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07You've taught me loads about hamsters, you've got me over my fear.
0:15:07 > 0:15:12And I've learnt that they're adorable.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16When Ysabel arrived at Pet School, she was afraid of KitKat,
0:15:16 > 0:15:19after being bitten by her own hamster at home.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22I don't think I'll last a week.
0:15:22 > 0:15:26But that soon changed. And just look at her now.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30KitKat, can I have a hold? Can I hold you? There's a good girl.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37When you hold them, don't cup them. They like to move around.
0:15:38 > 0:15:43I like to hold her. I like to let her have a little explore
0:15:43 > 0:15:47and give her the exercise that she needs,
0:15:47 > 0:15:51cos she's only six months old and she is quite big for her age.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54KitKat's helped Ysabel overcome her fears.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57And hopefully, she'll really appreciate her own hamster, Rocky,
0:15:57 > 0:16:00when she gets home.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09After two weeks at Pet School,
0:16:09 > 0:16:12our pets spend a last few moments with their buddies
0:16:12 > 0:16:14before their final farewells.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Bye, ferrets.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I'm not going to see you any more.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Going to miss you.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Goodbye.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- Bye, Pickles. Bye, Primrose. - Laters.- See you guys. Bye-bye.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- Laters.- Laters, guys.- Bye.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59SOBBING
0:17:21 > 0:17:25Do you know how much I'll miss you? I'll miss you so much.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28I can't believe I'm saying goodbye to you.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33We can put it off no longer.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Have our kids done enough to show their parents
0:17:36 > 0:17:39they've got what it takes to have their own pet?
0:17:39 > 0:17:41It's now time for the Big Decision.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43It's the moment of truth.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46We've done all we can to teach our Pet Heads
0:17:46 > 0:17:49the very best practice and care.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52What the parents decide now could be life changing.
0:17:52 > 0:17:57If my parents said no, well, I'd be quite annoyed.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Quite annoyed. I'd be a lot annoyed. But it's their decision.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04If I got nothing, I would be a little upset
0:18:04 > 0:18:07because that's why I'm here at Pet School.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11To be honest with you, I do feel a bit nervous about the decision
0:18:11 > 0:18:13but, at the moment, I'm hoping for the best.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Welcome back to Pet School. Micah, you've done really well.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27You've come on leaps and bounds since day one.
0:18:28 > 0:18:34- When Micah first arrived, touching the pets was a real problem.- Ah!
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Oh, you licked me. Calm down.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41- He was determined to improve and it showed.- Yes!
0:18:41 > 0:18:44But will he get the dog of his dreams?
0:18:46 > 0:18:49I think he's come a long way. His confidence has built up.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53- He's definitely enjoyed it. So, yeah.- He's done well.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Ysabel, how do you feel you've progressed
0:18:58 > 0:19:00over the last two weeks here at Pet School?
0:19:00 > 0:19:05I think I've done, erm, well
0:19:05 > 0:19:09and I've got over loads of my fears.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11Ysabel came here not liking hamsters,
0:19:11 > 0:19:13after her own chomped on her finger.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Spending time with KitKat has changed all that.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Do you think KitKat was a stepping stone
0:19:19 > 0:19:24- so you could overcome your fear and bond more with Rocky at home?- Yeah.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28And it wasn't just the hamsters she hung out with.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32Whoa. It's huge. Ooh, heavy.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35She's overcome her fears and she's come through it
0:19:35 > 0:19:38and I'm really proud of her.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43- It's Big Decision day, Sam. How are you feeling?- Nervous.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47- When you came to Pet School, you really wanted a snake.- Yeah.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Look at Dad's face.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51His parents won't let a snake in the house.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54But because Sam's proved himself with all the animals,
0:19:54 > 0:19:57I reckon he could look after any pet.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01I would like a dog but I'd need something to go with my rabbit,
0:20:01 > 0:20:03so maybe like a hamster or something.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05- Do you still want a Staffie?- Yes.
0:20:05 > 0:20:09I don't think a Staff would be appropriate.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11Are you getting teary? Don't. You'll make me teary.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17And there's one big question that's left to be asked to Mum and Dad.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Is Sam going to get a pet?
0:20:20 > 0:20:23Has Micah done enough to prove himself?
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Is Ysabel ready for another pet?
0:20:33 > 0:20:37- He is, but not a snake. - Yes!- Fantastic.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40High five, buddy.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43At the moment, we want her to come home
0:20:43 > 0:20:46and put all the knowledge that she's gained
0:20:46 > 0:20:49from looking after KitKat into Rocky.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52When Rocky goes to the hamster heaven
0:20:52 > 0:20:56then we will probably look at getting another pet.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00We've discussed it and, yeah, I don't see why not. I think so.
0:21:01 > 0:21:02LAUGHTER
0:21:05 > 0:21:10Getting a dog! Oh, yeah! Get in!
0:21:10 > 0:21:13- He's been such a good boy. Honestly.- Really good.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18I'm thrilled for Micah, and sister Jada is over the moon too.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Everyone wants their parents to say the same thing.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Everyone wants them to say yes.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28I was voted best pet carer, so I was really happy.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30And that should have persuaded my mum
0:21:30 > 0:21:34because even the team thinks that I can look after animals.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38I think I'm ready for a pet, like a ferret or a small dog.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40I think I've done well.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Liam, you've had a really interesting time here, haven't you?
0:21:50 > 0:21:54I loved seeing all these animals and learning about them.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58I really wanted a dog, so I'd do anything to have one.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Liam loves everything about dogs,
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- apart from cleaning up the poo. - She did a poo!
0:22:03 > 0:22:06He soon realised that there was no way he'd get a dog
0:22:06 > 0:22:09unless he scooped the poop.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11- Oh, my gosh.- You did it.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13How do you think he's done, Mum and Dad?
0:22:13 > 0:22:16From what I hear, he's done great. Proud of him.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18I think I did really well
0:22:18 > 0:22:20and I'm basically going to try, when I go back home,
0:22:20 > 0:22:23to use everything I've learnt with Bertie.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Pet School for Rachel was about learning
0:22:25 > 0:22:28how to bond with her dog, Bertie.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30But how do Mum and Dad think she's done?
0:22:30 > 0:22:32I'm hopeful that, after this experience,
0:22:32 > 0:22:36she'll acknowledge that Bertie's needs have to be a priority for her.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39- Rachel, why are your fingers crossed?- Cos I want a rabbit.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43- Are you going to need to be nagged any more?- No.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46I think I've done quite well, yeah. I've tried my best
0:22:46 > 0:22:48and that's what I wanted to do.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52Sophie badly wants a dog and has worked so hard,
0:22:52 > 0:22:55even being voted best pet carer. Well done, mate.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57But is it enough?
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Is Rachel ready for another pet?
0:23:00 > 0:23:06Mum, do you think Sophie is ready to have her own pet?
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Is Liam going to get a pet?
0:23:17 > 0:23:22- Yes, I do. Yep, definitely. - High five!- Yeah!- All right!
0:23:23 > 0:23:27- The answer is yes.- Yes!- Yes!
0:23:27 > 0:23:28All right!
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Today...
0:23:33 > 0:23:34Today it's a no.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38Liam needs to clean up after his own cat before he can get another pet.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41I'm going to pick up their poo, do what I can.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45But I'm going to prove to my mum and dad that I can handle a dog.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Because of his new Pet Practice skills,
0:23:47 > 0:23:50I think he'll really look after his cats at home,
0:23:50 > 0:23:51which is good news for them.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54- Well done, sweetheart. You deserve it.- Aw!
0:23:54 > 0:23:57So, on to our final three.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00I'm really worried to find out what the Big Decision is
0:24:00 > 0:24:03because I have a feeling that there's a chance it's a no.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05I'd be so happy if I got a dog.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10I really, really, really, really, really, really want a rat.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12I'd probably cry if they said no.
0:24:17 > 0:24:22The final day for Tej and Kiki.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Tej has never had a pet and instantly fell for Kiki.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Because Dad doesn't like dogs,
0:24:26 > 0:24:29it was unlikely he'd ever get one of his own.
0:24:29 > 0:24:30He has looked after Kiki very well.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33He's shown that he's mature enough to look after a pet.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Now it's up to me to handle my issues,
0:24:35 > 0:24:39- as far as animals are concerned. - Yeah.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Giulia, you've learnt so much.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45You've had an amazing experience with the rats, especially.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50When Giulia arrived at Pet School, she thought rats were rotten.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52She wasn't even keen on her own dog.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56But now she loves them.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59What does her mum think about them as potential pets?
0:24:59 > 0:25:01- We don't like rats.- No.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05Chris is nervous. He's had a roller- coaster of a ride, haven't you?
0:25:05 > 0:25:06Yeah, just about.
0:25:06 > 0:25:11Chris has been superb, working hard with all our pets.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13If I got a dog now, that would just mean
0:25:13 > 0:25:16all of what I've learnt has paid off.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20We need to prepare ourselves as a family
0:25:20 > 0:25:22before we take on such a commitment.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25Mum and Dad, we want to know whether or not
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Chris is responsible enough to have his own pet?
0:25:28 > 0:25:33Roy, I'm coming to you. Is Tej going to get a pet?
0:25:34 > 0:25:38You have a dog already. Is she ready for another pet, and which one?
0:25:43 > 0:25:48- No.- Giulia understands she has to look after her own dog
0:25:48 > 0:25:50before she can get a new pet.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56- We have decided yes.- Oh!
0:26:00 > 0:26:04- How can I say no? I think we have to go with...- Think about the sugar.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08- ..Yes.- Are you joking? - Yes! We're getting a dog!
0:26:08 > 0:26:11Wow. No matter what decision the parents made,
0:26:11 > 0:26:15I'll always be proud of our Pet Heads.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Well, that is it!
0:26:24 > 0:26:27That is the end of Pet School for you lot. But do you know what?
0:26:27 > 0:26:30I'm so proud of each and every one of you
0:26:30 > 0:26:34because, if there were more pet carers like you in the world,
0:26:34 > 0:26:38there'd be less animals in care. Now, off you go. Go on!
0:26:38 > 0:26:42And don't forget what you learnt at Pet School, all right?
0:26:47 > 0:26:50Since leaving Pet School, Ysabel, Giulia and Liam
0:26:50 > 0:26:53are using all their skills with their pets at home.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Ysabel has finally realised that her own hamster, Rocky,
0:26:56 > 0:26:59is just as loveable as KitKat.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03Sophie, Micah and Sam can't wait to get pets in the New Year.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Sophie's putting in some extra pet practice
0:27:05 > 0:27:07by looking after her grandparents' dogs.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Rachel and Chris already have their new pets,
0:27:10 > 0:27:14a rabbit called Alfie and a rescue dog called Smooch.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Tej's special bond with Kiki continues.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19He still takes her for walks. When he gets his own dog,
0:27:19 > 0:27:22he's hoping it can be best buddies with Kiki.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26And that, as they say, is that.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31If you've got a pet of your own,
0:27:31 > 0:27:34are you looking after it properly and responsibly?
0:27:34 > 0:27:37Check out the CBBC website and click on Pet School
