We have huge dogs brought in, seventeen hands high horses, goats and sheep – and then there are the tiny mice! We do our best to help all creatures both great and small. Four pretty little beige and white mousies came in recently, they are youngsters and around ten weeks old. Keeping mice is pet […]
It’s been a slow process but Cristo is getting better. He’s put weight on and his coat is wonderful now, thanks to daily applications of Aloe Vera. We use a spray and give him a light mist over – it’s great for all kinds of skin problems. Cristo has recently had a shampoo and a […]
It was the phone call we’d been hoping for – ‘I’ve just seen my cat on your website’ – Marmalade’s owner had been searching for him for a week and was delighted to see him safe and well. He’d gone out from the house as usual and not come back so they had no idea […]
He’s thin, he’s scabby, he’s a stray – this poor cat was found wandering the streets at Christmas and trying to follow everyone he met. He’s a lovely, friendly, fussy boy and was very grateful when a kind lady took pity on him and brought him in to us. We’ve called him Marmalade, […]
The first day of 2016 – here’s wishing you happiness, health and good fortune in the year ahead. It all came together for little Sherry, shown above, who was a tiny kitten, fostered by another mum and somehow managed to survive. Thanks to everyone for their kindness and help for the animals. We couldn’t do […]
This little dog, called Sandy, was the last to be brought in this year. He was an unwanted pet and we took him in just before Christmas. He’s an adorable fella, very tiny and sweet natured. He’ll be on our Adoption pages when we open again on January 2nd 2016. It’s been a hectic year […]
Dogs have no interest in celebrating Christmas, whilst most humans use it as an excuse to go shopping. Newspaper reports put the amount we’ve spent in the U.K. this Christmas at just under 4 billion pounds. A staggering amount gone on too much food, gifts and so-called bargains. Does it matter though? Isn’t it nice […]
We’ve had a busy holiday period with dogs, cats, birds and hedgehogs brought in. The latter are mostly hoglets, too young to survive the winter without food reserves. They’re tucked up warm in hay nests and are safe now, all are eating well. They probably won’t hibernate but we’ll keep them going till Spring when […]
All the dogs had turkey and sausages and the cats had chicken or tuna, so everyone had a good Christmas dinner. We’ve had more unwanted dogs brought in – staffi’s, border collies, labradors and a tiny Jack Russell, cats, rabbits and hedgehogs too. We always get more animals brought in at this time of year. […]
Myrtle is embracing the spirit of Christmas, she spotted the Nativity Scene and if she could have squeezed herself inside the stable she would have done. Going to sleep outside was the next best thing. Myrtle is the late Mischa’s daughter and is a gentle cat with a loving personality. She still misses her mum, […]
