On a cold morning, Carla and Eren were abandoned in a cardboard box outside our animal Home. Carla was pregnant at the time, meaning a total of nine precious lives were at risk. 💔

Thankfully, Carla gave birth in safety, and she and her babies will continue to receive ongoing care for as long as they need it.

But with so many animals in desperate need this Christmas, we can't do it alone. Will you help us be there for them when they need us most? Please donate today: https://bit.ly/3ZVCJ7G.

Today, we're sharing a heart-warming story from Caroline, who adopted Mish Mash this summer. 😻

"Our home lost its soul when our furry friend, Hotch Potch, passed away after 19 years of companionship. It was difficult to make the decision to visit Mayhew to find a new friend; it felt almost like a betrayal of our beloved previous cat.

When we opened Mish Mash's cubicle, unlike the other cats, Calli (as she was called then) the calico cat hardly acknowledged our presence. Eventually, without standing up, she extended her paw in an act of tentative friendship, batting half-heartedly at the string attached to my jumper. She licked my hand, and at that moment, we knew she would be our new friend.

The day we brought her home, she explored her new territory, purring so loudly it was as if she was saying, 'Oh my word, I’ve landed back on my paws. Thank you for choosing me.' We named her Mish Mash.

The day we found Mish Mash, our house became a home once again." 💜

Hello, it’s CJ and Diego here! We know dogs and cats don’t always see eye to eye, but today we’re teaming up for something truly impaw-tant...

Santa Paws is getting ready to pack his sleigh and visit good boys and girls around the world. 🎅🐾 While rescue animals like us might not have a home to call our own this Christmas, we’re still hoping to make it onto the nice list!

Our human friends have put together a special list where you can find gifts for us and all our fur-iends. 🎁

For some of us, this will be our very first Christmas. For others, it’s their first Christmas without a family. Your kindness would mean the world.

If you’d like to help Santa Paws make our Christmas magical, check out the Amazon Wish List here: https://bit.ly/3ONl7EE. Thank you. 💜

It's , and we’re celebrating our incredible volunteers who make a difference every single day. 💜

One of the many ways our volunteers help is through fostering. Fostering can have a huge impact on a dog or cat in need, and also helps to free up valuable space in our animal Home to help another animal in desperate need.

After being abandoned at 12-years-old, She-Ra was understandably very reserved and withdrawn. While in our care, She-Ra went into foster care with James, and within a short space of time, she had already made incredible progress.

James, shared: "Within a couple of days, She-Ra showed her true colours as an extremely relaxed and sociable lady, always wanting to be in the same room as me - either sleeping quietly on her favourite chair or relaxing on the floor.

Fostering with Mayhew is a wonderful scheme, and I can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants to look after a cat but isn’t quite ready to adopt.”

We are pleased to share that while being on foster, She-Ra found her forever home. 😻 James will always be an important part of her journey, just as all our volunteers are for the animals they help. 💜

Elrond’s story is heartbreaking but all too common. Left alone in our reception, he had no idea why his world had suddenly changed.💔

We understand that some owners, faced with tough times, may feel unable to continue caring for their pets. It's why we’re working harder than ever to be there for all the dogs and cats who need us.

But we can’t do it alone – we need your help to keep our doors open this winter, so no animal is turned away from the warmth and care they deserve.

Please, donate today. Your kindness could be the gift that saves a life this winter. https://bit.ly/infromthecoldappeal.

This , we're sharing Leila’s (formerly Olive) story. 🐱

Leila was abandoned in a cardboard box outside our animal home in June. Unfortunately, she managed to escape from the box, but a member of the public spotted her and alerted us.

Scared and unsure, Leila hid in several spots, including under a car and in a bush. After a couple of hours, our team were finally able to catch her and bring her to safety.

After her ordeal, Leila received a check-up at our clinic and, fortunately, was in good health. A few months later, she found her forever home! 🏠 Since then, she’s settled in well, enjoying outdoor adventures and plenty of cosy cat naps. 😺

We’re so pleased Leila found the loving home she deserved, especially after everything she went through. 💜

Black cats take twice as long to be adopted. Doesn’t sound fair? That’s because it isn’t. 💔

At Mayhew, we know that black cats are just as loving and playful as any other cat. But they’re often overlooked. Invisible. People think they’re unlucky or not as good for a selfie. 🐈‍⬛

So this , forget the latest tech deals and consider something more fulfilling... like adopting a black cat. 🥰🙌
