Most of us think are dogs are pretty bright but which breed really is the cleverest? Number one is said to be the Border Collie, with Poodles coming in second place and those super brainy German Shepherds getting the third rosette. We think lots of other types of dogs are super […]
And especially to our best friends – who wrote this specially for Christmas – I am clumsy and sweet and get under your feet in the permanent hope of a pat. I pester for walks and intimate talks when you’re occupied feeding the cat. I’m rather untrained […]
A young cat was brought in last night, found by the side of a busy road. Why was this little scrap out on such a wet and miserable night? He’s not microchipped and is in bad shape, thin and neglected, so he has probably been abandoned. Cats don’t have much road sense and everything […]
Krystal is recovering well from Cushing’s Disease, the tiny pill she takes every day regulates her hormones and keeps her well. Every day is still a reminder for us of how cruel some humans can be towards defenceless animals. Krystal is the kindest and gentlest […]

Jack Spratt looks snazzy in his santa hat – he loves Christmas – the presents, yorkshire puddings, sausages and a free range chicken dinner. Nolene went for a scarf instead of a hat – she thinks Jack looks a bit silly!

With no reserves of funds, we’re always walking a tightrope as far as buying food is concerned. We have more rescued animals than ever this year – cats, dogs, ponies, goats, chickens, turkeys and not forgetting all those hedgehog hoglets! A pet food mountain would be a wonderful thing to have and would keep […]
Re-homed – thank you. Tinkerbell is 12 weeks old, a beautiful kitten, loving and playful. She’s had her first vaccination, is fully litter trained and is as good as gold. She has lots of toys, a cosy bed and she knows how much we love her. There’s only […]
