In this episode of Keep it Humane: The Podcast, we welcome reptile enthusiast and animal welfare professional Tabitha Blewitt to talk about one of the most overlooked populations in shelters—reptiles. From proper housing and nutrition to common mistakes shelters make when caring for snakes, lizards, and turtles, Tabitha brings her expertise and passion to the conversation. We explore how shelters can create environments that meet reptiles’ unique needs, why public education is key, and how giving these animals the right care improves both their welfare and adoption outcomes.
