Re-homed – many thanks – All kittens are pretty but our latest rescued tiny tots are little stunners. They are all different shapes and sizes but the one thing they have in common is their sweet faces and lovely personalities. This little girl is called Majolica, she is a calico and beautifully marked with […]
Vaccinations, health checks, visits to the vet, special diets – the cost of caring for our residents goes up and up. So it’s a big thank you to everyone who came and supported our table top sale on Sunday and helped the animals. The kitten shown above is one of our new arrivals […]
This poor little Westie came in as a stray, he’s in a shocking condition, very thin and neglected and with sores all over his body. We’ve called him Perro, he’s a sweet natured little dog and will make a super companion for someone when we get him right. He’s an emotional wreck at the […]
Why balance on the top of a metal gate when it’s open? Tiffy loves to climb and whenever she sees a thin, narrow, high and dangerous ledge, she’s on it! Wood or brick would be easy but metal? That it’s so slippery doesn’t faze her a bit. The feline sense of […]

We adopted a German Shepherd x from you this year and want to say a massive thank you. She is our new best friend and loves every minute of every day. She was so scared at first but now she loves everyone and every animal. We’ve called her Rio and she is […]
Danniboy loves food and he’s always ready for another armful of hay. Although he’s only 13hands high (a hand is 4inches and is the way we measure horses) he is a chunky fella with a big frame to fill up. When we rescued Danniboy ten years ago, he was like a skeleton pony […]
We’re always telling you about the quirky behaviour of our cats and dogs and for a change it would be nice to hear about your fantastic moggies and doggies. Are they angels? Or little rascals? Too clever for their own good or so laid back they can’t be bothered about anything much. […]
