Winter is always a challenging time for us as the run up to Christmas brings in lots of old animals that people discard to make room for the Christmas puppy or kitten. This year we have seen an increase in the number of vulnerable dogs and cats needing our help due to increased living costs. It is vitally important that we provide our animals with the very best during their stay with us and their pens must be kept warm and comfortable at all times. During the winter months we use lots of donated duvets and blankets to help keep the animals warm and cosy, but our heating bills increase dramatically. There are 76 cat pens and 71 dog kennels to keep warm, which with the increase in electricity costs has soared to over £15,000 each winter.

This huge increase in our heating costs is really shocking and means we have to ask our wonderful supporters for their help again. Any donation you can give will make a huge difference and help us to continue to be there for these vulnerable dogs and cats.

Gables does not receive any government funding and has felt the financial strain from rising costs.

If we are lucky enough to raise more money than is needed it will go towards helping all the animals in our care.
