COVID-19 Appeal

In the past three weeks, 72 animals have arrived into our care and the extension of lockdown means we are still without income from our coffee shop, charity shops, private boarding or fundraising events.

Story

We still have to pay our bills to look after our animals. Everything from water to electricity, vet bills and medications. Around £15k each month is spent on veterinary treatment alone, excluding the cost of any medicines to treat our animals.

These are very worrying times for us as we dont know when our normal lives will resume, although it is looking to be in the very distant future.

We desperately need your help to look after our animals. We have been inundated with food and bedding donations and now have enough food to last us for approximately 12 months which we are very grateful for.

We are struggling for storage for our donations so we are asking if you would like to help, please consider leaving a monetary donation to help us with our bills.

No matter the amount, every penny does help and is very much appreciated. Thank you.
