Review by a qualified student from last year's practitioner course, who is now successfully working with horses and dogs ~

"I feel so privileged to have found this course and to be taught by such a wise, knowledgeable loving healer. I've learnt more on this course than I ever could have imagined. I went on the course to gain a certificate and in the end the certificate meant nothing compared to the life-long wisdom and knowledge I have gained. For anyone wanting to learn about helping our animal friends, whether it's for your own animals, or to become a professional, you couldn't have a more ethical knowledgeable teacher than Kate, highly recommended"

News about the "unusual" weather is inevitably focused on its effects on us humans. Many people care about the wild creatures as well, realising they are having a life or death struggle right now.

Here's more we can do to help insects, birds, amphibians, and mammals ~

* Put shallow bowls of water out where you can; grass verges, communal greens and your own garden or yard. Fill them regularly.

* Feed your local wildlife: Badgers, field mice and rabbits will eat moist vegetable peelings, fruit and green leaves. Leave them in the shade if you can.

* Feed the birds soft food for their young ~ raspberries, blueberries and strawberries are a favourite. Insects will also eat these. Don't eat the hedgerow soft fruit.

* Water your garden in the late evening, spray the leaves and ground for insect-life too. Butterflies, moths and other winged insects drink from leaves.

* Amphibians need moisture. Pour water in the hidden places, garden corners,under logs, piles of leaves, etc

* Put a stone in your bird-bath so insects can drink without drowning.

* If you find exhausted bees, feed them sugar in water or honey, or just water. Lift them to a safe, cool place and put a tiny amount in front of them. Seeing them eat/drink is magical.

* Don't use pesticides

* Ask the local councils to stop spraying. Parish councils have power over their immediate area.

* Stop cutting the grass in any area in your control.

* Ask the local councils to stop cutting the grass too. Parish councils have power over their immediate area.

* Don't cut trees or bushes.. it's the wrong season. Countless lives depend on them. If your neighbours do this... ask them to wait till after November.

** Do more to help ** If you can, speak out about the lack of care and attention to the devastating effects that creatures suffer, due to our actions.

* Water your neighbourhood trees.

* Leave your garden plants to seed.

* Let plants grow so that the soil is covered; that keeps it moist. Life will thrive in your wild "untidy" garden.

Our beautiful wildlife are struggling with the heat too - please help them by putting water out.

Help wildlife in hot weather!
Keep your watering stations, ponds and bird baths topped up with water, and let some of your garden grow wild to provide shade for the animals. ☀️💦

18/07/2022

It is another hot day - please remember that companion rabbits suffer in the heat in hutches, as well as the heat impacting all other species of animal domesticated, farmed and wild.

Don't forget to check their bums, it only takes 24 hours for fly eggs to turn into maggots!

We've had some very hot weather in Lincolnshire over the past week, here are some tips, from Vets4Pets Hull, to help keep your companion dogs safe in the warmer weather.

Great feedback from one of our level one students last month:

"What an amazing day spent with such a knowledgeable teacher, with so much wisdom and passion for helping all the animals and people, this energy shines through so brightly. I feel so honoured to have Kate as my teacher in something I feel so passionate towards too… A unique gift in itself, before the work even begins is being taught by someone like this!!"

Thank you :)

I have used Bach Flower Remedies for a long time with my 1-2-1 sessions with animals, so it's good to see other opinions and uses for them in this article, Blessed Be, Kate.

You can use Bach flower remedies for your dog, for yourself, your family, horses, and other pets. Give them a try next time your dog is upset

This is an interesting read about vegan diets for companion animals:
https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20200304-can-you-feed-cats-and-dogs-a-vegan-diet

Some vegan pet owners don’t just want to give up animal products – they want their pets to as well. But can cats and dogs really go meat free?

You can read more about Kate and why she works for animals on the website here:

I have worked with animals for over 40 years. I began as a teenage volunteer for the RSPCA. I then became a head kennel maid for a national animal charity. For 27 years I worked in private animal rescue, alongside many sanctuaries around the UK.
