Lillie has given birth to one kitten so far, sadly born dead. It’s a full size kit and a good size. She is quite distressed and doesn’t understand what has happened. Lillie is meowing to us and we are balanced between being there for her and letting her have some quiet time to get on […]
There’s no doubting it now – Lillie is definitely a pregnant lady. We don’t know when she’s due but her tummy is bulging and teats filling with milk. Her birthing might be delayed because she’s in such poor condition – a skinny frame and the rest is all kittens! What little food she’s had while […]
We were told about this little cat who was living wild in a Builder’s Yard in Leeds, she had no shelter and was very hungry. The office worker who had noticed her plight had been feeding her but was worried she’d be knocked down by the lorries coming and going. Efforts had been made to […]
Cristo is still a frail little chap, he was shockingly thin when he came in – also he has a heart murmur and problems with his teeth – but that doesn’t stop him enjoying life. Cristo is always pleased to have visitors and Val, who is one of our Pet Samaritan supporters, comes to see […]
He’s a lucky boy and has found the perfect loving home. Pumpkin was an abandoned cat, left behind when his people moved. He was living ‘rough’ in the area, being fed and helped by neighbours until a kind lady took pity on him and brought him in to us. He’s a lovely boy, very affectionate […]
Taking dogs for a walk is fine but they need ‘free’ exercise as well and thanks to local business man Paul Preston, we can now let them run to their heart’s content. Mr.Preston, who is an amazing animal lover, has kindly donated a load of metal fencing panels, enough to make a large secure paddock. […]
BENSON A loving tribute to a wonderful dog from his owner Gill – ‘Remembering my beautiful boy Benson, who I miss every day.’ A handsome dog who has been well cared for and had a happy life. You’ll meet him again one day Gill ….. R.I.P. Benson, living in our hearts forever
He was thin, ragged and nervous when he first came in to us but just look at Wally (we called him Errol) now! He loved his new people and he’s having the time of his life. Not only does he have the best home ever, he’s brought a lot of joy and happiness to his […]
We always have poorly pets in the sanctuary. Sometimes they are frail and unwell, or they might be badly injured and need stitching up. Their recovery care can make all the difference. Lots of t.l.c. is obvious but keeping them comfy, clean, warm and encouraging them to eat is vital. We do have a secret […]
Sanctuary residents, Jack Spratt and Miss Nolene have both suffered with serious health conditions and had operations to cure them. Spratt had a large lump which had to be removed and Nolene had a hernia which caused paralysis. Even when pets have only mild ailments, how we look after them makes a big difference to […]
