Found alone in a field in Sheffield, extremely lethargic due to severe dehydration. The finders gave this little bunny some fluids until they could find a wildlife hospital to help. She's now in our care and perking up a bit more each day. You can help wildlife during the heatwave by putting dishes of fresh water out.πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦ The animals will thank you.πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ§‘ πŸ¦”πŸ¦‡πŸ¦πŸ¦†πŸ¦‰πŸΈπŸ‡πŸ¦”πŸ¦†πŸ¦ Support your local wildlife hospital⬇️⬇️⬇️ https://www.petsamaritans.co.uk/donate/

She is under a strict skincare routine which includes a regular scrub to help ease the symptoms. We sometimes wonder why we bother.πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ This year Dorritt is looking great. No sore patches and not too agitated.

These two πŸ€πŸ’™ handsome gentlemenπŸ’›πŸ’š arrived on Friday after their owner could no longer keep them. The caring team at Chesterfield Borough Council that have been involved gave us a call and we made arrangements once again. We have many animals arrive under these sad circumstances and it's always heartbreaking. The budgies are quite eldery. One belonged to the gentleman, the other was his mums before. They have been living is separate cages in conditions that really weren't suitable. However, they were obviously very much loved and are really sweet. We don't know their names yet but will hopefully get more information next week. The budgies have now been moved into a much bigger enclosure together with lots of toys and seem very content.πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ§‘ They will be looking for a new long-term family. If would like more information about our adoption process please give us a call on 01246 455777 or 07872 421878. We'd love to hear from you. https://www.petsamaritans.co.uk/donate/

The Rock 🐒 was brought to us yesterday after his family felt they were no longer able to care for him. He's only in his late teens but is sadly suffering from metabolic bone disease from incorrect diet and care. We got The Rock booked in with @Staveley Vets straight away for a check up and to have his mouth trimmed back as an emergency procedure. He's weighed in at a mere 0.540kg and is severely underweight from not being able to eat easily due the his deformity. Today he's enjoying soaking up some vitamin D and a warm bath in Reptoboost at the sanctuary to try to replace some of the vitamins and minerals he is desperately lacking. The Rock has had a little drink but so far not eaten anything. We need you to root for him! Come on The Rock...you can do it...eat your greens! πŸ₯¬πŸ₯’πŸ₯¦ Please consider supporting us with a donation.πŸ™ https://www.petsamaritans.co.uk/donation-wall/ #pettortoise #Tortoise #petsamaritans #eatyourgreens #supportyourlocalanimalsanctuary

A young kingfisher from Spital, Chesterfield was booked to the Wildlife Hospital today after a cat attack. Infection caused by cat bacteria sets in very quickly so time is always of the essence with cat victims. Kingfisher are really shy birds and don't tend to do very well in captivity. Hopefully the antibiotics will kick in quickly and this little one will be strong enough for release soon.πŸ’›πŸ§‘πŸ’™ If you would like to support our work donations can be made through the link below ‡️‡️‡️ https://www.petsamaritans.co.uk/donate/

Harry Potter(y) the young gull was brought in by John Pye Auctions on Pottery Lane in Chesterfield this morning after falling 20ft to then be hit by an oncoming van. Harrys legs and feet despite being covered in blood on arrival look to be superficial injuries so will hopefully heal well. Harry was very stressed, hot and feisty but soon calmed down once settled at the sanctuary.πŸ’™πŸ’›πŸ§‘ https://www.petsamaritans.co.uk/donate/
