She’s been here for ages but at last Stella has found a really wonderful new home. It’s a case of waiting for the right people to come along and eventually they did. Stella is with a lovely family who are sports minded so there’s lots of football for her, which is something she loves. She […]
This is a true story about a pony we rescued many years ago ……and it’s a true one! The first time I saw the oddly marked black and white filly was at a market. She had backed herself in the corner of a pen and looked terrified. The horse meat merchants were out in full […]
This little fella was brought in yesterday, he’s much too small for hibernation. The good news is that he’s eating well so we have a chance to get him up to weight before he hibernates. He looks sleepy in the picture but that’s because it’s daytime, hedgehogs are nocturnal and come awake when it gets […]
Jim Crow had his first taste of meat yesterday, a left over portion of cat food. He is an intelligent bird and recognised that it was food he liked straight away. The grain and meal worms were forgotten as he swooped down and ate huge chunks at a time. Where’s the camera when I need […]

We’ve had more dogs, cats and wildlife brought in over the past few weeks and the run up to Christmas is always one of our busiest times of year. We need extra food, to provide heating and there are always the vet bills. If you can spare even a small amount every month it would […]
Yes please! Porridge is lovely! We always give our dogs breakfast, it’s hard not to when we have it ourselves and they always have an eye on the food bowl. In their natural state dogs wouldn’t have anything to eat in the morning though – unless they’d caught it. Dogs are programmed to eat with […]
Our two pigeon youngsters are doing well. Little Sqabbie is eating on his own now but both of them still like me to hand feed them from time to time. They are tame and can be picked up and ‘preened’ – which is when I gently stroke their feathers which they love. in spite of […]
This little dog has a smile on his face! What a difference there is in Benji, he’s happy and now he’s feeling better he’s started to trust and to make friends with new people. Already he’s more outgoing and confident, trotting off for a walk and enjoying every minute. Benji is a very lovable youngster, […]
