0:00:02 > 0:00:04Hi, I'm Luke Franks. It's the final day of term at Pet School.
0:00:04 > 0:00:07And hopefully, the thunder isn't a sign of bad news to come.
0:00:07 > 0:00:09It's a nervous time for our Pet Heads.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12They're going to find out whether they've proved to their parents
0:00:12 > 0:00:15they can be responsible enough to have the pet they've always wanted.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18And I can promise you this - there's going to be tears,
0:00:18 > 0:00:19there's going to be triumphs,
0:00:19 > 0:00:22today is one school day you don't want to miss.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Nine pet-crazy kids.
0:00:25 > 0:00:27I would like to have a dog.
0:00:27 > 0:00:28I would really like a rabbit.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30I really want a pet rat.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33101 animals needing care and attention.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36THEY SHOUT
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Two incredible weeks.
0:00:39 > 0:00:40HE SCREAMS
0:00:40 > 0:00:43But have our Pet Heads got the animal know-how...
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Ugh, they poo, ugh!
0:00:45 > 0:00:48..to persuade their parents they've got what it takes
0:00:48 > 0:00:49to have a pet of their very own?
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Has she proved to you she can be a responsible pet owner?
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Is she getting a pet?
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Previously on Pet School.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Parents' Day turned Pet School into Pet Squeal.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20THEY SQUEAL
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Uh-oh. He's going to take it.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Oh! I screamed like a girl.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29And coming up today, it's decision time for our Pet Heads.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Today's big decision is really nerve-racking.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36If I don't get a pet, I think I'll be quite devastated.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44Come in out of the rain, Pet Heads, it's time for morning assembly!
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- Hello. - ALL: Hi!
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Welcome to the last ever morning assembly.
0:01:49 > 0:01:50ALL: Aw!
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- Sad day, but also a big day, right? - ALL: Yeah.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Because some of you are going to be graduating from Pet Heads
0:01:56 > 0:01:59to pet owners. One last chance to prove yourself.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- The final ever Pet Practice. - We've got to pass.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Got to do it properly, you've got to pass today... Surely.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07- Shall we find out your groups? - ALL: Yes!
0:02:07 > 0:02:12- Group one - Lauren, Thomas, Chloe.- Ooh.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14You are going to be with the ferrets.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18- ALL: Oh! - You're so lucky, they are so good!
0:02:18 > 0:02:25Group two - William, Courtney and Tommy. You are with the hamsters.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28- Yay!- Yes, your pet buddy. You going to give them some tips?
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Patch likes to be handled quite close to you,
0:02:30 > 0:02:34but Ziggy doesn't really like to be handled at all.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35- Got to know them properly.- Yeah.
0:02:35 > 0:02:36Let's do it, cool.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39And group three - obviously, Ananya's still not very well,
0:02:39 > 0:02:43there's two of you in this group. Sam and Faramaz,
0:02:43 > 0:02:46you are with our feathered friends, the budgies.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Don't let yourselves down on the final one for the last day.
0:02:49 > 0:02:50Got to make it a big one. Do the hat trick.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Get it done, last ever Pet Practice, see you later, bye!
0:02:53 > 0:02:54- Bye, Luke.- See you, Luke.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Over the past two weeks,
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Pet Practice has really challenged our Pet Heads.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Some have found things difficult, some have found things scary,
0:03:06 > 0:03:09and some have really shone as superstar pet carers.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13But as they start one final, ultimate Pet Practice,
0:03:13 > 0:03:14can they pull together in a team,
0:03:14 > 0:03:18or are they just going to run around like escaped animals on the loose?
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Over at the ferret enclosure,
0:03:20 > 0:03:22the team are definitely not going to run around
0:03:22 > 0:03:24like escaped animals on the loose.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Bring this on!
0:03:26 > 0:03:27OK, maybe they are!
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Today, their task is to give
0:03:30 > 0:03:31the ferrets a full clean-out.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35"It's a big task, so you have 40 minutes to do it, and guess what?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37"You decide between who is going to be..."
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- Lead the task. - "..who is going to lead this task."
0:03:39 > 0:03:42I'd like to. I would like to because, um,
0:03:42 > 0:03:46- I know pretty much about ferrets. - OK, so you can be the leader.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49So that's settled. Chloe's the team leader.
0:03:49 > 0:03:50Isn't she?
0:03:50 > 0:03:53If you get them out, then I'll get...
0:03:53 > 0:03:55I'll come in with the cleaning stuff, OK?
0:03:55 > 0:03:57You've got to be really gentle with them.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Can we take these outside?
0:03:59 > 0:04:01How about... take the litter trays outside
0:04:01 > 0:04:04and do them outside? Here's the water and food,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06we've got to change their bedding, here you go.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08- Here.- Huh, what? - We've got to clean in here.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Basically, Chloe just wants to leave everything in there
0:04:11 > 0:04:13and just try and clean it all out into the bin.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17I suggested we take everything out, but she doesn't want to do that.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20So while the ferrets team lead and follow -
0:04:20 > 0:04:22or is that follow and lead? -
0:04:22 > 0:04:24over in the furries room,
0:04:24 > 0:04:26it's team leader election time.
0:04:26 > 0:04:30I'd like to put myself forward, I don't know if anyone else wants to.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32- Don't know if you want to...- Um...
0:04:33 > 0:04:35I'd probably say...Tommy,
0:04:35 > 0:04:39because you've had experience with rats, so it's almost the same thing.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- Also, I've had experience with both hamsters.- Exactly.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Oh, this is awkward!
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Today, the team's tasks are to fully
0:04:45 > 0:04:47clean both enclosures, and line
0:04:47 > 0:04:48Patch's cage with cardboard,
0:04:48 > 0:04:50and Ziggy's cage with paper.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53You start with the main cage, I'll start disinfecting.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Where is the disinfectant?
0:04:59 > 0:05:01I'll run to the store cupboards.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03No, you stay here, I'll go.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08So while Tommy pops out, over at the aviary, Ananya's illness means
0:05:08 > 0:05:10the team is a member down, but they're not
0:05:10 > 0:05:12going to fly into a panic.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Today, their tasks are to fully
0:05:13 > 0:05:15clean the enclosure and forage for branches
0:05:15 > 0:05:17in the school field.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20"You have 40 minutes to do this task, and we're going to leave
0:05:20 > 0:05:23"it to you guys to decide who's going to be the team leader.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25- "Good luck." - Who's going to be team leader?
0:05:25 > 0:05:26- I don't mind. - Well, that was easy!
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Luckily, Sam isn't the sort to get into a flap over the birds.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35- Hi, Faramaz and Sam.- Oh, hi.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Hiya! How are we doing?
0:05:38 > 0:05:40You going to miss the budgies or...?
0:05:40 > 0:05:41You seem a little bit flinching,
0:05:41 > 0:05:43- Sam.- I'm not going to miss them.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Yeah, it's just...
0:05:44 > 0:05:45they keep flying around,
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- and all you can hear is just... - Yeah, its cos they're birds.- Yes.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50- Fluttering.- Um...that's cool!
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Have we learnt some stuff, do you think, in these two weeks?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55If you're going to get a pet, you have to clean its poo.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- Classic, that, isn't it? Sam's doing that, isn't he?- Yeah.
0:05:59 > 0:06:04Meanwhile, back in the furries room, the team are also busy cleaning poo.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Guys, I can't find any disinfectant, which makes it really hard
0:06:07 > 0:06:10because they need disinfecting.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Um, I don't know now what to do.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16I really don't know now. Um...
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Should we just put the bedding back in?- Use them,
0:06:19 > 0:06:21they clean, it's anti-bacterial.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Right, if we fail, it will be your fault.- OK.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25If we fail, it's his fault.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28It looks like the stress of decision day might be making
0:06:28 > 0:06:30this lot a tiny bit prickly.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33- There's no more cardboard shreddings left.- What?!
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- That's only enough for Patches. - Oh, you've got to be joking!
0:06:36 > 0:06:39- Calm down. - Sorry that I don't want to fail!
0:06:39 > 0:06:41I really want to pass.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44We all do, but shouting isn't the way forward.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Keep calm and carry on.
0:06:46 > 0:06:47Good advice, Courtney!
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Meanwhile, over at the aviary,
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Faramaz has gone foraging for branches.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54And he's waltzing through this task.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00A glide to the right...
0:07:02 > 0:07:03..a pirouette...
0:07:06 > 0:07:08..reach for the stars!
0:07:15 > 0:07:18And a promenade back to the aviary.
0:07:18 > 0:07:19- Found it.- Hello!
0:07:19 > 0:07:20Lovely.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23And with only five minutes left of Pet Practice,
0:07:23 > 0:07:26it looks like nothing is going to ruffle these boys' feathers.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28I think we've done a full clean.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Which is more than can be said
0:07:30 > 0:07:31for the ferret team.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34THEY SCREAM
0:07:34 > 0:07:36- Get it off, get it off! - It's a bloomin' beetle!
0:07:36 > 0:07:37It's over there!
0:07:37 > 0:07:40You're such a wimp!
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Beetlemania aside,
0:07:42 > 0:07:45this team seem pretty confident that they've completed their tasks.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Room - definitely done, check.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Check.- Um, food and water - check. - Check.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Uh, paper - check. Litter boxes - check.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55I think it's clean enough for the ferrets.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57You know, they obviously live in a bit of muck.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Are you sure about that, Chloe?
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Ooh, we forget the fresh towel for them!
0:08:02 > 0:08:05Quick, stick it in, then! You should have done that.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Oh, don't...- Put it in.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10LAUGHTER
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Close the door, Thomas.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15- I think I forgot the blue toy.- NO!
0:08:15 > 0:08:16COCKEREL CROWS
0:08:16 > 0:08:18That is time on our final Pet Practice.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Our Pet Heads can do no more.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22And will they be impressing their parents,
0:08:22 > 0:08:23finishing on a perfect result?
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Or will they be putting their chances of getting a pet
0:08:26 > 0:08:28into jeopardy at the last minute?
0:08:31 > 0:08:33So let's find out how they did.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Thanks to William's quick thinking,
0:08:36 > 0:08:37he, Tommy, and Courtney managed
0:08:37 > 0:08:39to fully clean both cages, and line
0:08:39 > 0:08:41each one with paper or cardboard.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Nice work!
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Sam and Faramaz successfully
0:08:45 > 0:08:46cleaned the aviary
0:08:46 > 0:08:48and foraged for branches, so they've also passed.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51But the news from the ferrets isn't quite as good.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Thomas, Lauren, and Chloe did not clean out the ferret enclosure
0:08:54 > 0:08:58properly, so they are staying behind to make sure the job is done.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01And with decision time just around the corner, I wonder how it's going
0:09:01 > 0:09:04to affect their parents' choice on getting them a pet of their own.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08- Do you think that that's a well-cleaned ferret aviary?- No.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10We did clean the little trays.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Ferrets aren't always going to go in the litter tray, OK?
0:09:13 > 0:09:16If you're not cleaning up all the poo regularly, they're really prone
0:09:16 > 0:09:20to really bad stomach upsets and really bad bacterial infections
0:09:20 > 0:09:22that can actually kill them really quickly.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24So let's crack on and get this sorted, OK?
0:09:24 > 0:09:27We need to be picking up the poo that's over on the back wall.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Take that blanket out of the hammock that's got poo on it.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33We need to get this newspaper that's wet and mouldy on the floor.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36There's also a cardboard box that's really damp and mucky,
0:09:36 > 0:09:40so can we can that out? Let's just get it nice and dry for them.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43If that was my house they were leaving like that,
0:09:43 > 0:09:46I really would not be pleased, and I can't see that their parents
0:09:46 > 0:09:49will be happy that they're leaving poo in litter trays, it's disgusting.
0:09:49 > 0:09:54Right, guys, you know, this really is minimum standard,
0:09:54 > 0:09:58but at least they're dry, clean, and we've done the litter trays.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00So let's get going.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02That was my last Pet Practice,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05and I failed it miserably.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11This can affect our parents' decision about getting us a pet.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16They're going to see this and...
0:10:16 > 0:10:19and might say no.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Coming up on Pet School - Pet Heads and parents
0:10:22 > 0:10:24sit down for the big decision.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27I'll be really happy if they say yes.
0:10:27 > 0:10:32If they say no, I just don't even want to think about it.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Pet Heads! Come and say hello. - ALL: Hi.
0:10:38 > 0:10:44- So, decision time is just a few hours away.- No!
0:10:44 > 0:10:49First, inside each of the nine pigeon holes,
0:10:49 > 0:10:53you will find a letter which has got your end-of-school report.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55We gave it to your parents yesterday,
0:10:55 > 0:10:57it might give you some idea of what they're thinking.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58Go and have a look.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06I'm kind of nervous.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Three, two, one...
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- I'm happy.- I'm not. - I'm happy with some of it.
0:11:14 > 0:11:15I'm unhappy with that bit.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18I'm pleased, I think the whole thing is good, so...
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I think my chances are later.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23I think they're still 50/50.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27It says, "Lauren's confidence with the animals varied day to day."
0:11:27 > 0:11:29"William did sometimes get distracted."
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Just having a stressful day.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34OK, I'm going to go and meet your parents,
0:11:34 > 0:11:37we will find out the decisions a little bit later on.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40In the meantime, because it is the last day,
0:11:40 > 0:11:43you can go and spend a bit of time with the animal
0:11:43 > 0:11:47- that you want as a pet. - ALL: Yeah! Woo!
0:11:47 > 0:11:50I'll see you for your big decision later. Off you go.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55With the moment of truth approaching,
0:11:55 > 0:11:57our Pet Heads are off to spend some time with
0:11:57 > 0:12:01the pet of their dreams, while their families arrive at Pet School.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04If I don't get a pet, I think I'll be quite devastated,
0:12:04 > 0:12:07because I've done the best of my abilities.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11This morning's Pet Practice with the ferrets didn't go so well,
0:12:11 > 0:12:15so I'm a bit scared they'll see that, then they'll think,
0:12:15 > 0:12:19"Well, he didn't try there, so he won't try with a rabbit."
0:12:19 > 0:12:22I've picked up dog poo.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24I just hope it's good enough to persuade my mum and dad,
0:12:24 > 0:12:27because I don't think I can do any more than what I've done.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32First to find out about their parents' decisions will be
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Lauren, Courtney, and Thomas.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36HEARTBEATS
0:12:39 > 0:12:42Welcome to Pet School. The final day.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43Thomas' mum, you got to come yesterday,
0:12:43 > 0:12:47anything you noticed that you think he could have improved on?
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Not squeezing the gerbils, and turning them upside down.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Lauren didn't have a great time with the chickens in the first week.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Oh, gosh, no, not at all.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00- We knew she'd struggle there, but she done well.- She got stuck in.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02And last night, just the end of the day,
0:13:02 > 0:13:05we gave you her school report as well. Any surprises?
0:13:05 > 0:13:09How tidy she was, actually, it says she's actually been cleaning.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Over the moon with that, brilliant. - We've got some clips of how
0:13:12 > 0:13:16she's been doing in the last couple of weeks. Let's have a watch.
0:13:16 > 0:13:17Oh, he's so cute!
0:13:19 > 0:13:21Oh! Agh!
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Oh, dear.
0:13:23 > 0:13:24SHE CRIES
0:13:27 > 0:13:28Smells disgusting.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Let's have a look.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Oh, no!
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Not the tidiest moment there.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Oh, Thomas!
0:13:52 > 0:13:53GUINEA PIG SQUEAKS
0:13:53 > 0:13:55That's better.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Just put a tiny bit in. - That's far too much.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00It said a pinch, and he poured it in.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03So now it's time to bring them in.
0:14:09 > 0:14:15I feel like there's a space empty in me that needs filling.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18If they say no, I just don't even want to think about it.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22I'm nervous about the big decision my mum and dad will have to make.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Hi, Courtney!
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Hi, Thomas!
0:14:28 > 0:14:30- Hello, Lauren!- Hiya!- Hiya!
0:14:30 > 0:14:32How are you feeling?
0:14:33 > 0:14:34Er...
0:14:35 > 0:14:38- Scared stiff. - I think I've done everything
0:14:38 > 0:14:40and I've learnt everything I need to know.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42All right, well, family,
0:14:42 > 0:14:45has Courtney proved to you she can be a responsible pet owner?
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Is she getting a hamster?
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Is Lauren getting a dog today?
0:14:59 > 0:15:03I think...yes, we will definitely consider getting you a dog.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- Yes! Yes!- Well done, Lauren!
0:15:06 > 0:15:08She is.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09- Yes!- Yeah!
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Everything you've learnt comes down to this moment, right?
0:15:13 > 0:15:17Decision time. Is Thomas getting a rabbit today?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Not right at this moment.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Thomas, not the answer you were hoping for.
0:15:28 > 0:15:29How are you feeling?
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Uh...not too bad.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34- OK.- OK.
0:15:34 > 0:15:35I just think he needs a lot more time,
0:15:35 > 0:15:38a lot more patience, to grow up a bit more.
0:15:39 > 0:15:45A bit upsetting, you know, but...life has to go on.
0:15:45 > 0:15:46I think you could definitely get there.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48But I'd definitely encourage you
0:15:48 > 0:15:50to try and spend as much time as you can
0:15:50 > 0:15:52with people you know that have got rabbits.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Everyone's always said I'd never be able to look after one,
0:15:55 > 0:15:56but I've proved them wrong.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58In your face!
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Choose your hamster wisely, go to your local rescue centre,
0:16:00 > 0:16:02take your time, don't rush into it.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Are you happy with a hamster as well?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Yeah!
0:16:06 > 0:16:10Take it slow, meet lots and lots of dogs until you find THE dog
0:16:10 > 0:16:12that you just get that real bond with
0:16:12 > 0:16:14and, as a family, that suits you really well.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Thank you so much, Mum and Dad, thank you!
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Next to hear their parents' decision
0:16:21 > 0:16:25is Faramaz and William.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27I've done a lot of work, and I've tried really hard
0:16:27 > 0:16:29to prove to them, so I think I've proved enough.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31It's because of Clark that I want a dog.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33If I could change anything,
0:16:33 > 0:16:37that would be...to not be scared of the poo.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39I don't even know how a pile of poo could beat me.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47- Yesterday, you came to Pet School. - That's right.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Got an insight into what Faramaz has been doing - what did you think?
0:16:50 > 0:16:52He loves dogs, but loving dogs,
0:16:52 > 0:16:54cats, or whatever and looking after it
0:16:54 > 0:16:55is a bit different.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57How did you get on with William?
0:16:57 > 0:17:01I think he's done amazingly well. He's really surprised me.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05We've got some clips from the last two weeks, so let's have a watch.
0:17:05 > 0:17:06Maybe take the lid out of the bag.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09That means I have to open the bag!
0:17:09 > 0:17:10Thomas, it's fresh!
0:17:10 > 0:17:12LAUGHTER
0:17:19 > 0:17:20OK - William, team leader,
0:17:20 > 0:17:22is picking up your bits, Faramaz.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34'Today's big decision is really nerve-racking.'
0:17:35 > 0:17:38'I'll be really happy if they say yes,
0:17:38 > 0:17:40'but we'll just have to see, won't we?'
0:17:42 > 0:17:43- Hi, William!- Hi, mate.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45- Hello.- Come and have a seat.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47How are we feeling?
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- Yeah? Little bit nervous? - Yeah.- OK.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- How do you think you've got on? - I think I've done as well as I can.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Do you feel ready for a pet?
0:18:00 > 0:18:03After this experience, I feel really, really ready.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07What pet do you want?
0:18:07 > 0:18:08Um, a dog.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10My dream pet would be a bearded dragon,
0:18:10 > 0:18:14but I understand that not all of the family would like that.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- So...- Yeah.- Big decision time.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Is he getting a dog?
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Is William getting a bearded dragon today?
0:18:36 > 0:18:37He has proven himself,
0:18:37 > 0:18:41but the answer to the bearded dragon is no, sadly.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44But we will think about another pet. Absolutely.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50In my opinion...yes.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Faramaz, yes! You will be getting a dog.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56- How are you feeling?- I'm excited.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58They said yes, they said yes!
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Put it there, yes!
0:19:00 > 0:19:03It wasn't really because I didn't do well,
0:19:03 > 0:19:07it's just because they don't really want a bearded dragon, to be honest.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10William has done so well, so he should be proud.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13A bearded dragon is a big commitment for the whole family, right?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16It really is. I mean, bearded dragons could be anything
0:19:16 > 0:19:17between 15 and 25 years.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20So it's definitely worth considering it.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22I think you'll get there in the end.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24'Don't look so sad, William.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27'Dad did say he might consider another sort of pet.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30'So, five Pet Heads down, four to go.
0:19:30 > 0:19:31'And it seems like a good time
0:19:31 > 0:19:34'to find out Ananya's parents' decision.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37'Ananya came to Pet School afraid of animals,
0:19:37 > 0:19:41'and sadly, had to leave after falling ill.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43'But did the progress she made during her time here
0:19:43 > 0:19:47'convince her parents that she's ready for a pet of her own?'
0:19:47 > 0:19:50So good to see you all well again. We missed you at Pet School.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Uh, everyone at Pet School, we showed the families,
0:19:52 > 0:19:55their parents, some clips of them in action.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57So we've got some of you, Ananya, here.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Oh, Ananya, that's amazing, well done. Yes!
0:20:07 > 0:20:10- Well done.- Ananya, you are holding a boa constrictor!
0:20:10 > 0:20:12I couldn't do that, actually!
0:20:13 > 0:20:15It is time to find out, Ananya -
0:20:15 > 0:20:22Mum and Dad...today, is Ananya getting a pet of her own?
0:20:27 > 0:20:29She definitely can have a pet.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31- Happy with that? - Yeah. I'm really happy.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Awesome!
0:20:33 > 0:20:35'So it's a happy ending for Ananya.'
0:20:35 > 0:20:37- Great!- Yes! Yes!
0:20:39 > 0:20:41And the last three to hear their results
0:20:41 > 0:20:44are Sam, Tommy, and Chloe.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49If I don't get a pet and my mum says no today,
0:20:49 > 0:20:51I'll be really disheartened
0:20:51 > 0:20:53because I did work really hard.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58One particular highlight might be working with the leopard gecko.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01If I don't get a pet, I would...
0:21:01 > 0:21:03I don't know how I would feel.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11This is the final day of Pet School, which means it's decision day.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Chloe's mum, you came yesterday. How did you think she got on?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21I was quite impressed yesterday.
0:21:21 > 0:21:22She did more than what I expected.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24Is there anything you saw from Sam
0:21:24 > 0:21:26that you thought he could work a bit harder on?
0:21:26 > 0:21:29He's very keen. Sometimes, he could be a little more controlled.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Be careful where you scoop, don't go too deep.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34We gave you his school report at the end of yesterday.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- What did you think about it? - Yeah, quite impressive.
0:21:37 > 0:21:43It's basically willow sticks, hay, and then all things like roses.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Sometimes, it goes in one ear,
0:21:45 > 0:21:47out the other with Tommy, but...
0:21:47 > 0:21:50We've got some clips from the last two weeks, so let's have a watch.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57A lot of poo covering over just then.
0:21:57 > 0:21:58Hey, stop!
0:21:58 > 0:22:01That's what I did yesterday.
0:22:01 > 0:22:02Let's have a watch.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06Come on. Come on.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09- I don't care, actually. - We do.- But we do.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10It's not all about you, Tommy.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- Shall we take a look?- Lovely.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14And you just gently pull it up
0:22:14 > 0:22:17and you should be able to see the teeth.
0:22:17 > 0:22:18- There she is, you got her?- Yeah.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Hold her wings nice and close in,
0:22:20 > 0:22:22bring this hand up a little bit.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32'At the minute, I'm feeling a little bit anxious.'
0:22:32 > 0:22:36'The possibility of me maybe having a pet forever
0:22:36 > 0:22:38'is actually really exciting.'
0:22:38 > 0:22:39'I'm getting a bit worried -
0:22:39 > 0:22:42'it is the bit where I find out if I get a pet or not.'
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- Hello.- Hi, Chloe.
0:22:45 > 0:22:46- Hiya, Tommy.- Hey, Tommy.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Hi, mate. How are we feeling?
0:22:50 > 0:22:51Good.
0:22:51 > 0:22:52Definitely nervous.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54A bit worried.
0:22:54 > 0:22:55It is decision time -
0:22:55 > 0:22:57have you got anything you want to say to your mum
0:22:57 > 0:22:59- before she makes up her mind?- Um...
0:22:59 > 0:23:04I've tried my hardest, so take that into consideration.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Parents, today, on the final day of Pet School,
0:23:08 > 0:23:11is Tommy getting the pet that he wanted? Is he getting a rat?
0:23:13 > 0:23:18Do you think Chloe has shown you how to be a responsible pet owner?
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Do you think she's getting a pet today?
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Is Sam getting a leopard gecko today?
0:23:37 > 0:23:40Yeah, we're going to have to say no today, Chloe.
0:23:40 > 0:23:41- I am sorry, darling. - No, yeah, it's fine.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43But, um, we don't think...
0:23:43 > 0:23:46You've just not got to that stage just yet
0:23:46 > 0:23:49where you're ready for an animal, and when you're ready,
0:23:49 > 0:23:51- we'll commit to it then.- OK.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53- That's not a no forever! - It's not a no forever, no.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Just not at this time. But it's not a no forever.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59'Chin up, Chloe, you'll get there!
0:23:59 > 0:24:00'Now, what about Sam?'
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Yeah, I think Sam would be a great pet owner for a gecko.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13- Yes, Sam!- Woo!- Result! Good job.- Yes! Well done.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Cool.
0:24:15 > 0:24:16Yes!
0:24:18 > 0:24:19- Yes.- Yes.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- YES!- YES!
0:24:23 > 0:24:24Tommy, come on!
0:24:24 > 0:24:27- MARIE:- Oh, my goodness!
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- Well done! How do you feel? - Excellent!
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Good job!
0:24:31 > 0:24:33HE SPLUTTERS
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Words don't... Words don't...
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Make sure you get a nice big vivarium for them.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40Remember, Sam, they are going to be around with you
0:24:40 > 0:24:42for at least 10 to 20 years.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44I'm hoping, in the future,
0:24:44 > 0:24:46I might be able to have a pet of my own,
0:24:46 > 0:24:49but I'll have to keep my fingers crossed
0:24:49 > 0:24:50and hope for the best.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53Getting more handling experience, visiting rescue centres,
0:24:53 > 0:24:55going to friends and family who have animals
0:24:55 > 0:24:57and getting more involved will definitely help as well.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01- You're going to need two rats.- Yeah!
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- What are you going to call them? - I don't know yet, um...
0:25:04 > 0:25:06There's some good names here.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09- Yeah, Luke and Marie.- Correct decision, that's right, yeah.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12WOO-HOO!
0:25:12 > 0:25:13So that's it - decisions made,
0:25:13 > 0:25:16and all that's left is the goodbyes.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Pet Heads - time at Pet School has come to an end.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23It's been brilliant having you all. I am proud of you.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Congratulations to those of you who have got your pets.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28If you didn't get a pet, don't give up, keep working,
0:25:28 > 0:25:31you might be able to change your parents' minds. That's it, though -
0:25:31 > 0:25:33our animals are going to miss you.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37So for one final time, Pet Heads, off you go!
0:25:37 > 0:25:40- ALL: Yeah! - See you later, bye!
0:25:40 > 0:25:41Pet School has meant quite a lot,
0:25:41 > 0:25:45because it's given me all sorts of opportunities and I've done
0:25:45 > 0:25:46so many things I never thought I'd do.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49You know, walking a goat wasn't on my list.
0:25:49 > 0:25:53It's gone too fast. It's gone too fast for me.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55I'm looking forward to meeting my new animal,
0:25:55 > 0:25:57but I'm also sad to leave Meadow as well,
0:25:57 > 0:25:59because she's like my best friend.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01I'm going to miss the people here.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05I'm going to miss the animals, and I'm going to miss my friends.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08I feel sad that we have to leave so soon,
0:26:08 > 0:26:10and that time's up with Pet School,
0:26:10 > 0:26:13but I'm also really happy now I get to get a pet of my own.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Fun working with all the different people and animals,
0:26:17 > 0:26:20and...amazing.
0:26:22 > 0:26:26Yeah, it's a school where you, like, learn about stuff,
0:26:26 > 0:26:28but it's not your normal school,
0:26:28 > 0:26:30where you're sitting in a classroom, bored to death,
0:26:30 > 0:26:32doing English and Maths.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34It's been a great experience,
0:26:34 > 0:26:36and I wouldn't miss it for the world.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38See ya, Patch.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40Bye, Leonard.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Pet School's been the best experience of my life.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48And when I get older and all that...
0:26:48 > 0:26:50No, I don't think I'm going to forget it.
0:26:54 > 0:26:55That's it - school's out,
0:26:55 > 0:26:59and the gates have closed for the last time this term.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01Did our Pet Heads get their dream animals?
0:27:01 > 0:27:02Well, Lauren, Faramaz,
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Ananya and Sam took Marie's advice
0:27:05 > 0:27:06and are taking their time
0:27:06 > 0:27:08to find the perfect pet for them.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11William and his family are still thinking about
