This beautiful ‘little owl’ fledgling flew in through someone’s living room window and landed on their tv 🥺 the finder put him back outside and by the end of the day he was still there, very dehydrated and skinny on one of the hottest days last week 💔

It’s been a good few days of having to force feed and rehydrate him, but he’s finally eating by choice now thankfully! He’s put weight on and developed his spicy personality again so I’m hopeful he’s going to be back in the wild asap 🥰

Please dig deep for my amazing friend Steph, she’s helping 2 beautiful kittens that were in the most horrendous situation… 💔

We’re gutted to be reporting that someone has broken into our shop in Maltby last night and trashed the place. They were trying to get into sizzlers next door it seems, but decided to go into our little shop too. Luckily they didn’t manage to get into the other places, damage was done but we took the brunt of it as they actually managed to get inside ours. They’ve totally smashed the door in which will need replacing at our expense and they’ve wrecked loads of the stock 😢💔

This shop has been a lifeline to our rescue and animals, it’s been our only guaranteed income to support the never ending outgoings we have. Donations have dried up a lot this year, so we’ve worked hard to keep the place ticking over.

To see that someone has broken in and selfishly destroyed what we’ve worked and continue to work so hard on is genuinely soul destroying 😢💔

We use this shop for storage at the moment, once we have our registered charity number (which should be any day now) we intend on opening the shop a few days a week to support the rescue. But as those who’ve been to our sales know, the space is small but holds loads of brilliant items that we’ve been so kindly donated and received.

We’re 100% non profit, we don’t take a penny for any personal payment. Every single penny donated and raised from the shop goes back on our animals and vets bills. We give up every spare moment we have to raise funds and care for our animals, so to look at stock smashed to pieces, the ceiling tiles ripped off and glass all over the floor… there are no words 😢💔

The police are involved and are investigating, if anyone knows anything please get in touch or contact the police and quote reference SYP-20250623-0382. We would love to know who the utter scum is that has done this to us 🤬 even though the chances are slim we’re hoping CCTV might help us find out who did this.

We will need to replace the door which makes more sense to pay for ourselves rather than go through insurance, our contents aren’t insured due to the items constantly changing and being donated. What’s lost and damaged is done and we have to accept that, however upsetting it is. What’s broke my heart the most is some of these items were donated by my Grandma after her bungalow sale now that she’s in a care home 😢

I’m going to include our donation details below because even £1 donated will go towards us just replacing the door...

We thank you for your kindness and support as always everyone. I know things are sent to test us, but this is so unfair. We’re genuinely lost for words, how can we even describe the feeling this has created? We’re totally gutted 💔

Sandy update 🤎

A reminder: Sandy came to us after being booked to be put to sleep due to biting someone on a walk, we were the only rescue out of over 30 to agree to help.

We’ve since managed to get Sandy into Spaniel aid who had an experienced foster ready and waiting to accept her in.

It was 100% the right decision for Sandy, she’s got heaps of energy and needed a breed specific foster home which she’s absolutely flourishing in!!

We love working with other brilliant rescues and can’t thank spaniel aid enough for accepting this beautiful girl in. During her time with us we did lots of training, had her see our behaviourist and turned down multiple homes that weren’t quite right for her. We’ll always, always do the best by our animals ❤️❤️❤️

Meet Mandy! Mandy loves a busy walk running around and having a good sniff, after that she will settle well at home. She is an intelligent girl and would enjoy taking up a hobby such as scent work or agility. Mandy is looking for a new home in a more rural setting with someone who can continue her training to help her feel less anxious.

🟤 2 year old female cocker spaniel
🟤 North Berwick, Scotland
🟤 Children 16+
🟤 Can live with another dog, also happy as an only dog
🟤 Can live with cats

Our beautiful Sophie is still waiting patiently for her forever home… 😿🖤

Sophie takes a while to trust, but once she trusts you she is so loyal and loving. She was an outdoor cat but by choice never goes out now.

She would prefer a quiet home, where she can explore at her own will without any children.

She is good with friendly dogs.

🥳 Happy birthday to us, Chirpy’s Allies is 3 years old today! 🥳

I very nearly forgot lol.

In 3 years I’ve cared for so many beautiful animals, there’s been the most amazing and challenging times. It’s genuinely been an honour to do this and be supported by so many of you.

From a little documentation of caring for a baby blackbird named Chirpy, to the rescue we have today offering refuge to so many animals. It’s been a rollercoaster.

Not forgetting, I’ve gone from doing it alone to having 3 other trustees!! Becky, Rebecca and Wes. I certainly couldn’t do this without them now, and together we try our very best for all of the animals that come to us. They’ve made the bad days so much more bearable 🥰

I’ve met some amazing people through rescue, and although this past 2-3 months I’ve come so close to closing the doors permanently I hope things continue to improve and grow… ❤️

Another successful sale! £360 raised, fantastic!

Thank you to those who donate items and also to those who come and buy things, it means the world to us and keeps us going!!

On the way home I saw this poor girl crossing the road in Tickhill, cars slowed down for her. She’s in such a mess, male ducks have done this to her believe it or not. Mass gang mating, especially when done by large domestic breeds and hybrids literally kills our little mallards. It’s devastating.

A few weeks ago we tried and failed to save a female who drowned with 7 males on her.

This girlie has already been cleaned, smothered in antiseptic cream and given antibiotics and pain relief. She’s now relaxing in a carrier and has had a big drink.

This is why we do what we do, this is why we give up our spare time to raise funds and care for animals. They need us. If you’d like to donate please consider doing so below:
