Sydney has finally found her forever home after 3 years at the Pet Samaritans Animal Sanctuary.

Sydney, the Corn Snake, arrived at the sanctuary back in the summer of 2021 after a local charity, Hope House Chesterfield contacted us needing help.
Finding the right home for animals often takes time, and at the Pet Samaritans, there is no time limit for this service.
When Toni and her partner Ash requested to be considered, we knew they would be a perfect match for Sydney. Toni loves her reptiles and has a superb setup. The couple also volunteer their time to the sanctuary through their business Kraken Arb - Tree Specialists. We look forward to receiving lots of updates. Thank you, Toni and Ash, for welcoming Sydney into your family.πŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’™

If you would like to support the animals in our care so that we can help more animals like Sydney, please consider making a donation. Offering long-term care requires lots of funding to keep the centre open. We cannot do this without your help.

Tip & Skip are just two out of the hundreds of pigeons that come through our Wildlife hospital doors each year. They were brought to us after workers were told to remove nests on a job and throw everything in the skip! Tip & Skip are doing well. Look how much they've grown during the 7 weeks in our care. They are now feeding themselves and enjoying some aviary space while they learn to become more independent.

We need your help so that we can continue to provide our Wildlife service.

International Day of Charity serves to increase and enhance social responsibility across the entire world, increasing the support for charitable causes and bringing everyone together in solidarity.

The General Assembly of the United Nations designated the 5th of September, the anniversary of the death of Mother Teresa, as the International Day of Charity.

"Charity isn't about pity; it is about love.”
Mother Teresa.

Mother Teresa redefined charity, highlighting that it goes beyond feeling sorry for others. True charity is rooted in love, empathy, and the respect for inherent worth and dignity. It involves recognising the shared humanity that binds us all together.

Cinderella was brought to us on Saturday during our Bake Sale Fundraiser.....Sanctuary life never stops!

After being checked for a microchip and several posts on social media to find an owner had no positive outcome, it was decided Cinders needed a safe place quickly as she's heavily pregnant. Cinderella is in poor condition. Hopefully, we have a little bit of time to build her up before she has her kittens.

Donations towards Cinderellas care can be made through the kitten campaign on our website.

This Buzzard was brought to us after being found on a smallholding in Heath, Derbyshire eating a rat. The Buzzard had an injured wing and couldn't fly, but despite her injury was big and strong. We wonder if the rat may have been poisoned as the magnificent bird sadly passed away shortly after arrival. The team are devastated.

The team picked up this beautiful mama cat and her 4 kittens on Wednesday evening. Jeff and his mum Joan, who is in her 90's had been looking after the mama cat since her last litter of kittens earlier this year. They had booked her to be neutered, but she disappeared before they could get the help needed. Mama cat then came back pregnant again. Jeff had given up his bedroom to keep the little family safe and secure this time and he was sleeping on the sofa. The kittens are now around two weeks old and Jeff and his mum knew they needed help.

Name the Mama Cat and her Kittens!
We will be running a competition to name mum and kittens this week to help raise funds to help care for them. The competition will start tomorrow at the Bake Sale Fundraiser, Β£1 per name.πŸˆπŸˆβ€β¬›πŸˆπŸˆβ€β¬›πŸˆ

Bridget, the miniature Shetland pony is one of our lifetime care residents. Her leg deformities mean she requires specialist care from our experienced equine team and, therefore, will stay with us for the rest of her life. This is a huge cost to the sanctuary. Bridget is just one of the many permanent residents. Donations towards Bridgets care can be made online at https://www.petsamaritans.co.uk/donate/

Oscar the Barn Owl was spotted by a member of the public one morning last week. He was perched on a building ledge. The family kept a watchful eye, hoping that a parent would appear or that the young owl would move. However, after 24 hours, Oscar was still in the same precarious place and looking extremely weak. He was brought to the sanctuary, and our team got to work feeding Oscar.
Please help with Oscars rehabilitation costs and support his journey to get him back to the wild.

We have set up a GoFundMe dedicated to helping Oscar. https://gofund.me/84e3df5e

Basher the Gull was brought to us 4 weeks ago after he was found on a garden in Claycross looking very sorry for himself. He'd got an injury to his wing, a nasty wound on his chest and lots of bruising to both legs. The injured wing was strapped up and has since healed well. Basher is now enjoying physio time in our Wildlife Garden until he's ready to leave us.

Each rehabilitation case takes time and expertise.
Please consider supporting our work. We can't keep going without more funding.

Wow....what a day!
Lots and lots of THANK YOUS are in order. We feel extremely blessed to have the most fantastic supporters.
The wonderful Paul answered our request for help to pick up a kitchen we had been offered. We hope the units will make the perfect storage for cleaning supplies.
🌼A huge THANK YOU to Paul, who has been amazing today. Your help has been invaluable.
🌸Liz, please thank your parents for donating the kitchen. We can't wait to see it fitted.
πŸͺ»Thank you also to the kitchen fitters at the collection end, who helped load the units.
🌷And another huge THANK YOU to Alex and his colleague who helped unload the units and carry them into the centre. Alex and his colleague had only come to the sanctuary to bring a nestling pigeon they had rescued. They turned up just at the right time!

Tomorrow, John the joiner is hopefully going to start putting the units in their new position.🀞

Watch this space.....it's all very exciting.

Safe at Last with the Pet Samaritans - St Bernard’s Animal Sanctuary & Wildlife Rescue

The Pet Samaritans Animal Sanctuary & Wildlife Rescue centre is home to abandoned, orphaned, injured and unwanted pets, dog, cats, horses, ponies, small animals and wildlife. We encourage Pet adoptions to find a loving home for them but if they are unable to be adopted, they stay with us for life.

Our wildlife rescue programs in Derbyshire operate throughout the year and help rehabilitate injured wildlife, birds and hedgehogs brought into the Animal Sanctuary.

We provide an emergency pet care service with lifetime care for pets whose owners are terminally ill and we give priority to pets who are bereaved or whose owners have had to go into hospital or a care home.
