HELP BELLA GET BACK HOME Rachel is desperately hoping for news of her missing cat who was last seen Saturday 19th May in Belper, Millbank Ave. This is near the new Herbert Strutt School/Park estate. She is micro chipped with a current address and telephone numbers. She had a pink collar on which has a […]
PLEASE SIGN OUR PETITION https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/compulsorylabelling-rituallyslaughtered/meat Every day in the U.K. thousands of animals are slaughtered without being stunned first. When you buy meat from butchers and supermarkets there is no way of knowing whether it is from an animal that has been humanely killed. If it was compulsory to label meat so you knew which […]
New arrivals – yesterday a stray cat we’ve called Tiffany gave birth to three all ginger kittens. Tiffany didn’t look very big so we weren’t expecting a large litter and three are just right. The colours are beautiful, the one is the middle is a bit bigger than the other two and is a real […]
Petra was thin and nervy and in a terrible state when she first came in as a stray. We knew that underneath all the problems there was a superstar dog waiting to shine through. And just look at her now! As soon as her adopter Denise saw her she knew that Petra was the only […]

Yesterday Rosie did leave them for a few minutes, while they […]

Rosie has perked up a bit – she’s forgetting the ordeal of giving birth and all she thinks about now are her beautiful puppies. Getting her to go out for a little walk takes some persuasion, she doesn’t want to leave them for even a minute. Some dogs are very protective of their puppies and […]
Rosie gave birth to five beautiful puppies yesterday and all are safe and well. She managed everything on her own, we kept a close eye on her just in case, at the same time being careful not to disturb her. Birthing is best to be a private thing for animals unless they need help. But […]
All Rosie wants now is lots of fuss – and her new puppies! When Pet Sams supporter Julie called in she had an overwhelmingly friendly greeting from this little pregnant lady. Rosie loves everyone but she especially seemed to like Julie, even though it was time to go in for tea, it was hard […]
