In every practicle I make sure that I have the right PPE on for that practicle and the right equipment. Also when cleaning out enclosures that are too heigh to reach (hamster cages) I always makesure that I a sturdy stool to reach up and clean out the enclosure. In practicle when dealing with animals I always makesure that I don't scare them by talking quietly and giving them space so they don't get scared. Also if an animal is scared I wouldn't go up to it straight away and stroke it.

After every practical it is very important that you fill in the animals record books to state whether you have: fed , cleaned out , water changed ,exercised, given the animal any medicine or if anything is wrong with the animal . This is so the next person to go in the room will know what you have done / what needs doing in that room (e.g. cleaning or feeding).
