TheraPaws updates! 🐾 💜

Here's TheraPaws dog, Zena on one of her weekly visits to St John's Hospice 🐶 Her visits bring calm, comfort and companionship to patients visiting the Wellbeing Centre or staying at the Inpatient Unity, and this picture captures those moments so perfectly.

We are so grateful to Zena and her human, Shirley, who make such a difference to so many during their visits. 💜

Meet Onesie! 🐱 This little one arrived at Mayhew after he was found all alone and walking with a limp. He’d been found behind some bins, so it’s suspected he was abandoned. 💔

After a check-up in our clinic, it appears that Onesie was born with a congenital condition which affects his right leg. Despite this challenge, he gets around just fine and is full of beans. His leg will need to be monitored while he grows, but for now he’s doing really well.

Onesie is the sweetest little boy and loves his fuss and snuggles. He also has the most adorable little meow. 🥰 He’s hoping his forever home isn’t too far away. 💜

It breaks out hearts when our animals don't receive adoption interest. In Holly-Angela's case - not even one application. 💔 We just want others to see what we see in them. 💜 Here's a little message from her below. She's not ready to give up hope of finding her family just yet. Maybe you can help?

"Would you like to know a secret? Since I was a puppy, I've been saving a place in my heart for a best friend. I often dream about the wonderful adventures we will go on together. I know they are out there somewhere, I just haven't found them."

Need a dose of feel-good Friday? We've got you! Here's a lovely update one from one of our adopters who rehomed Bobbie in the summer. 🥰

"Bobbie and Ali are now officially bonded, and yes Ali has well and truly taken on the big brother role. It's so heart warming to see, they're practically joined at the hip. 😊

"Bobbie has a BIG appetite along with his personality. 😅 Soon I think he'll be much bigger than Ali. He is loving the wall shelves and all the corners of the home, he is very curious and I can't wait for him to start exploring the outside world.

"Thank you again for helping bring Bobbie into our lives." 💜

This week we had a special visitor. 💜 Long-term supporter and Mayhew ambassador, Fearne Cotton came in to collect the newest member of her family, little Fig. 🐱

Fig is the fourth cat Fearne has adopted from Mayhew. She first adopted Lula and Keloy who she shared many wonderful years with and then Frankie AKA super Frank last year.

We are so grateful to Fearne for welcoming another Mayhew rescue into her heart and home, as well as her ongoing support as an ambassador. 💜

Fig was born at Mayhew alongside her siblings back in September after their mother arrived heavily pregnant and with nowhere else to go. We are so pleased that Fig has found her family. 🥰

A few weeks ago, you helped Blanco. Today, will you please do the same for Noodle? He's yet to receive one single adoption application. 💔 Please take a moment to read his special letter, and if you can, please like or comment on this post - you might just help make his dream come true.

Dear future family,

My name is Noodle and I was born to be a racing dog. At two years old, I am already retired. I thought that was my purpose, but really, I think it was to find you.

I'm shy and sensitive, but I'm a lot of other things too. I'm sweet, gentle, clever and deserving of love.

Together, we can make many beautiful memories. I've never had a real home before, and can't wait to experience many 'firsts' with you. My first nap on the sofa, my first Christmas tree, and so much more.

I really hope we find each other soon. Your best friend, Noodle. 💜

You did it! 🎉 We would like to thank every single one of you who took the time to like or comment on Blanco's post a few weeks ago. 💜

We are absolutely delighted to share that Blanco has been adopted. Here is a little message from him: "From the longest-staying cat to an adopted kitty with a family of their own. Thank you for helping to make my dream come true, and so many others too. It's true what they say, not all heroes wear capes, but they do know a good kitty when they see one! All my love, Blanco." 💜

Today, we're taking a moment to remember the animals who have lost their lives in war, as well as the people we have lost beside them. 💜

CiCi arrived at Mayhew as a young kitten earlier in the year. Since she was adopted, she's settled right into her new home. 🥰 She gets on well with her four-legged friend, Layla and her adopters shared: "It's been great to watch her grow and become part of our family." 💜

💜 This Christmas, your support can help bring warmth, comfort and love to every animal who needs us. 💜

Carla was found in a box outside our doors, huddled around her kitten. Cold. Hungry. Exhausted. Trying to do what every mother does to protect her child.

With care, warmth and love, their story turned from fear into hope. But every box outside our doors carries a new life in need.

This Christmas, you can help turn a box into a beginning. Donate to bring warmth and safety to dogs and cats in urgent need: https://bit.ly/4qQlMHi.
