When one of our animals goes home, it's always special. But for our longer-stayers it can be particularly emotional (the good kind). 🥰

When Blossom went home recently, our Kennel team all came together to say goodbye. We absolutely love this photo because we think it captures the heart of Mayhew - how every individual animal is cared for and loved. 💜

We hope you'll join us in wishing Blossom the very best of luck in her new home. 🐾

Raise your paw if you're a fellow sleep connoisseur like Big Simba and take nap time very seriously. 🖐️ 🐾

After being in our care for over 130 days now (yep, that's a long time 😿), Big Simba is waiting for the best nap ever - the one in his forever home. 💜

Meet the real Bow. 💜

Helping Bow recover takes time, treatment and plenty of dedicated care.

Alongside the treatment she needs, our kennel team are there for her every day, helping her feel safe, learn her surroundings and grow in confidence as she adjusts to life without her sight.

And slowly, we're getting to see the real Bow emerge. She's formed an especially close bond with kennel carer Tommy:

“Bow and I have formed an extremely special bond, she has completely captured my heart. She amazes me every day with how trusting she is despite being blind, she puts her faith in the people around her and faces the world with such incredible bravery.

“After everything she has been through, her resilience and loving nature are truly inspiring. I’m incredibly proud of her.” 💜🥹

This is all part of Bow's recovery. From the veterinary treatment and medication she needs, to a safe place to heal and the dedicated care of the people she has learnt to trust, your donations are helping us be there for her through it all.

Bow still has a long journey ahead. She'll need further surgeries, ongoing veterinary treatment, rehabilitation and care at Mayhew before she's ready for the next chapter of her life.

Please donate to Bow's Crowdfunder today and help us continue giving her everything she needs to recover. 💜

We honestly don't know why, but for some reason, the white cats in our care seem to take longer to find their forever homes. 😥

Jannah is such a sweet and affectionate girl. At just one year old, she's still very young and would make the most wonderful companion. 💜

When Milo met Sienna. 🥺

Little Milo arrived at Mayhew after she had been found wandering in someone's garden all alone.

After receiving the loving care she needed, Milo was adopted into a loving home. 😻 That's the power of adoption - it gives animals the second chance they deserve.

We're so grateful to Sienna Spiro for taking the time to get to know some of our animals like Milo as part this important campaign with PETA UK to raise awareness of adoption.

While Milo has found her forever home, there are still lots of animals waiting for theirs. To meet them, visit our website below.

We recently introduced you to Poppy, and now it's Violet's turn. 👋

Violet arrived at the same time as Poppy after their owner sadly passed away.

At five years old, Violet is a friendly girl who is always up for some affection. She enjoys going on gentle adventures and is looking for a home where she'll be given the wonderful life she deserves.

Violet can be rehomed with Poppy, or by herself.

To find out more about Violet, visit our website: https://themayhew.org/dogs/violet-2/.

Tim had a wonderful time meeting Sienna Spiro as part of this important campaign with PETA UK to raise awareness of adoption. 😊

For dogs like Tim, adoption is life-changing. As a retired racing dog, he's never known what it's like to have a home of his own. But through adoption, Tim has the chance to find the loving family he deserves.💜

Bow has taken her first step towards a brighter future. 💜

On Tuesday, she underwent surgery to remove her badly damaged right eye, finally bringing an end to the pain she'd been living with.

She's now recovering with the love and care of our veterinary team, who have all fallen for this incredibly gentle girl.

But Bow's journey is only just beginning.

Next week, our vets will assess her left eye to see how it's responding to treatment. She'll also need ongoing veterinary care, medication and rehabilitation before she's ready to find the loving home she deserves.

Thank you to everyone who has already supported Bow's appeal. Your kindness has helped make this important first step possible.

If you haven't yet donated, Bow still has a long road ahead. Please donate today to help fund her ongoing treatment, rehabilitation and recovery. We'll continue sharing updates throughout her journey, so you can see the difference your support is making every step of the way.
