First up for Rabbit Awareness Week is husbandry! People often mistake rabbits as 'easy' pets and buy them for their children. The reality is rabbits are tricky pets to keep and require a lot of care!

❗️FOUND❗️

We have had 3 cats handed in to us this afternoon without microchips.

2 of the cats are similar age and are friendly with each other so we believe they may be owned by the same person

The third cat is a different age so has been kept separately

If you believe any of these cats may be yours please call us on 01608 642547 with information about your cat. Photo ID will be required

The last post for Parrot Awareness Week is about the health of your bird. Birds may often hide the signs if they are unwell and so it is important to be aware of the signs of illness

For further information of any of this weeks post about Parrots please refer to the Awareness Week -PAW page

Thank you!

This handsome boy is Sammy & he is currently looking for a family of his own🏡🐱

He is a little nervous at first but once he gets to know you he will be your best friend. He is such a soft boy and loves rolling around showing you his belly and making lots of “biscuits” on your lap or his blanket 🥺😍

If you think you can offer Sammy a 5⭐️ forever home or would like more information about him, please visit the Sunshine Cat Rescue website
