Perry came into the animal sanctuary as a very young fledgling. He was ever so tiny and we didn’t know if he would pull through. After round the clock care and a few sleepless nights, he slowly improved and adapted well to his new human parents Jo and Kate. He’s turned into quite the character […]

Bolt has been with us for a little while now. We are not sure why because he is a fantastic dog. He’s a young Jack Russell and very handsome. Like all young dogs he is full of energy and needs plenty of exercise to stop him getting bored. He would suit someone who wants a […]

Pigs are creatures of habit and Polly is no exception. Everyday right on que she trots up to see us. We’d like to think she is just working out and keeping her figure in trim but we suspect it might be the team time pig nuts. If we are only a few minutes late she […]
