Our beautiful Belle is looking for her forever home!

Bella came in about 6 months ago, heavily pregnant. She was from a colony of strays that we have been trapping, neutreding and rehoming.

Belle is nervous with anything new. We have worked hard with Belle to get her comfortable with people and every day we see more and more improvements! Right now, she's laid with me in bed purring away!

Belle will need an understanding home, she's going to take a while to settle but once she does, she's very affectionate. She runs at me purring, just wanting to be stroked and loved! I honestly cannot believe how far Belle has come from that terrified young mum we first got, to the beautiful girl she is today!

Shes used to living with other cats, infact she's a real 'mom' cat and loves looking after the new ones! She's also used to my children, and loves my daughter!

Since coming in she's been an indoor cat and has shown no issue about this! When offered the opportunity to venture outside Belle turned tail and ran off! I think after a rough start on the streets, Belle is more than happy to stay safe and warm inside!

If you think you might be the perfect family for Belle, please drop us a message!

Adoption fee applies

Afternoon!

I'm having some technical issues with my phone so I'm not able to get calls or messages at the moment!

I'm not ignoring anyone, I just can't receive anything atm!

This beautiful girl is Bonnie!

Bonnie came in as a stray, a little worse for wear and looking like she had just had a litter 😔

Bonnie's history is speculation, but webelieve Bonnie has been used for breeding her short life. She came in underweight with a number of wounds. She wasn't house trained and had no obvious training. She had all the markers of being kept in a pen and left there.

Despite Bonnie's sad start in life, she is the most beautiful, loving and friendly girl! She's brilliant with other dogs, cats, rabbits etc! She adores my 9 year old daughter and loves nothing more than (trying) to snuggle on the sofa! She's a bit big for a lap dog but she won't hear of it lol. She loves walking! If your active family who wants a dog to adventure with you, Bonnie is your girl!

Bonnie is
🐕 approximately 1 to 2 years old
🐕 spayed
🐕 microchipped
🐕 Good with dogs
🐕 Good with cats
🐕 Good with children (any age but be aware she's a big young dog so may knock over younger children!)
🐕 wormed and flead to date

Adoption fee is £200

Duggie is still looking for his new home!

Duggies is a quirky little man and needs a special loving home. He is a truly affectionate little man who loves his person with his entire being. He's house trained, knows basic commands and walks off the lead with good recall.

However duggie is very nervous and as such, isn't suitable to a home with children. He also has a fear of his collar being touched. Duggie will resource guard his bed and food. Don't let these things put you off though! Duggie is a much loved part of his foster family and is just waiting for a person of his own!

These are so not the best photos bless her! We'll get better soon!

This little beauty was brought in after her elderly owner passed away and they found our beautiful Dutchess and 3 kittens... Dutchess is an older girl who I have no doubt has been well loved, but maybe a bit neglected. As such her teeth are in urgent need of extractions!

This is a fixed amount of £395, which as you can appreciate is a larger amount! So I'm here again asking you amazing people for help! If you could donate towards Dutchess's dental it means so very very much!

Our beautiful bonnie went for spaying at the beginning of this week so she'll be looking for her new home soon!

Shes an absolutely beautiful girl with the kindest temperament ❤️ if I could keep her I would!

This is an Elsie appreciation post because she 100% deserves recognition! For a 9 year old she's rather amazing! She goes to school all day, dances on an evening and then still comes all over with me rescuing animals, helping me clean cages and cat litter trays, feed and water! She's helped me tame more feral cats than I care to admit to! All the animals end up loving her, and she never moans, never complains when she's dragged out late on an evening to go collect some poor dumped animal. ❤️ 😍 💖

2 kittens that have been found.

Neither are microchipped.

Proof of ownership will be required if you think either of these could be your cat.

Both cats found in Mexborough

*** GINGER BOY REUNITED WITH OWNER ***

We've got quite a few animals in right now, and so very many people asking for help with more! If you have space for a cat or kitten (these are the ones that are coming in the most atm) please drop me a message!

All you would need to do is give them love. Wr sort food, litter and vet bills etc.

If your going to ask for kittens, or only ginger ones etc, I'm not going to be able to accommodate. I have no history about 95% of the animals that come in. They all desperately need a safe space though, and need someone to love them, even when they are spitting and hissing, because those babies need it the most!

Our beautiful Belle is looking for her forever home!

Bella came in a out 4 months ago, heavily pregnant. She was from a colony of strays that we have been trapping, neutreding and rehoming.

Belle came in extremely underweight and very scared. We have worked hard with Belle tp get her comfortable with people and every day we see more and more improvements! Right now, she's laid with me in bed purring away!

Belle will need an understanding home, she's going to take a while to settle but once she does, she's very affectionate on her terms. I have no doubt that given time, she'll become even more so! She's come on leaps and bounds in the few months she's been here, so I know in her forever home, she'll continue this!

Shes used to living with other cats, infact she's a real 'mom' cat and loves looking after the new ones! She's also used to my children, and loves my daughter!

Since coming in she's been an indoor cat and has shown no issue about this! Ideally I think she'd be better kept as an indoor cat.

If you think you might be the perfect family for Belle, please drop us a message!

These beautiful babies have come in after their owner was found passed away.

The kittens will be neutred etc and then be looking for their new home! Mum looks a bit worse for wear bless her so she's likely going to need a bit more support before she's ready for adoption! She desperately needs some dental work done, a good grooming session or 7 and also spaying! She's clearly been loved though! She's such an affectionate girl 😍

Sometimes it's the little steps that have the biggest impact!

Ella came in extremely poorly but a very happy confident girl, however due to all the medicine and things she had to have on a daily basis, we got to the point where I couldn't touch her. She lost her trust in us that we were actually trying to help her. And i get it, I can't explain to her that she was so poorly that without help she might have died... its taken months to get Ella right, but we're there! And today she's on my knee purring letting me stroke her. I won't dismiss this amazing show of faith and trust she's giving me. It's not a huge thing, but at the same time it is! All she's ever wanted is love and affection.

Excuse the hair and everything else 😂

I'm looking for a farm or riding school or livery yard who is looking for a cat!

We have three cats who would be better suited to a country style life!

Tommy - male neutred boy. Friendly and lovely but has spent most of his life kicked outside and this is the life style he now prefers. So long as he has food and somewhere warm to curl up when he wants it, he doesn't want for much else!

Charlie - male neutred boy. Can be stroked and picked up, but again prefers less human contact and enjoys being outside and left to roam. Again, will only need food and a warm space to sleep in when he wants it!

Stephanie- female spayed female. Stephanie is a street cat. Extremely nervous of people and hates being in the house. She was born on the street and now needs a safe space where she can do her own thing catching mice and rats!

If your interested in any of these three, please drop me a message

XL BULLY ADVICE

To answer a few questions….Yes, if you already own an XL Bully, the dog will be classed as a banned breed, and you will have to go through the exemption process to be able to keep your dog under Defra’s exemption rules.

We do not know yet, how they will define XL’s, we can assume it will be similar to how they define Pitbull Type…Measurements and Characteristics.

Our advice, at this time, if you suspect your dog is an XL, get them neutered ASAP, to have your dog exempted, it must be neutered. If it’s not neutered and it’s seized, you will NOT get your dog back until it has been neutered. Better having them neutered now by your own vet than the police approved kennels getting them done. Also, if your dog is already neutered, you may be able to stop your dog going into kennels, there’s the IES (Interim Exemption Scheme) that a few forces use, where you can keep your dog at home, under conditions, until the court date for exemption.

Muzzle train your dog now!! This will prove you’re a responsible owner, and, also prepare your dog for having to keep them muzzled, at all times, in public, this includes in your car etc.

If the police come for your dog..DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING!! They may try to blag you into signing…Oh sign this to say you understand why we are taking your dog. Don’t!! You’ll be signing for them to put your dog to sleep.

We appreciate that this news is frightening for owners 😢 And, many will be angry!! Keep calm at all times with the authorities, they will be judging you and your behaviour as well as your dog!! Please copy and paste this information and share far and wide.

This is charlie!

Charlie boy is looking for a home on a yard, or a farm where he cam have plenty of space to roam and just have his best life!

Hes 2 years old an neutred. He's a friendly boy who is happy to be stroked and picked up, however he definitely would prefer a life of running free and catching mice!

*** REHOMED ***

Yesterday these two beautiful boys came in! They will be looking for their new homes shortly!

13/09/2023

We've been out for a lovely walk today with our gorgeous girl Bonnie!

Bonnie appears to have been dumped. She's definitely had pups and unfortunately it looks as though Bonnie has been used for breeding until no longer wanted!

She isn't house trained and doesn't know basic commands, but we are working on these!

HOWEVER Bonnie is the happiest, friendliest dog you could want to meet! She loves kids, great with other dogs, fine with cats and small animals! Honestly she's amazing.

She wasn't in the best shape when she arrived but she's come on leaps and bounds since being with us! Once spayed, Bonnie will be looking for her forever family! Someone patient who will continue her training. She's bundles of energy so an active family would suit her to a tee, so long as they love puppy piles and cuddles on an evening!

12/09/2023

We've got quite the collection of fur babies with us at the moment, some I don't have photos of yet either to share with you!

I love helping animals, making sure they have a safe space when life gets hard. I absolutely hate turning people away who just need help getting a pet somewhere safe!

This all comes at a very high cost though, and with all the emergency vets, routine medications and spayings/neuterings, we are getting really low on funding again, and without funds, I can't accept anymore animals in. Cat spaying costs £175, and neutering costs £95. We currently have 15 cats in. For bonnie (female dog) to be spayed, it's £295. The four rabbits neutering, its £175 each.... you get the maths, and that doesn't even cover the day to day costs.

If everyone who looks at our page could send just £1 each via PayPal friends and family, or bank tranfer, we'd be sorted! Please if you could send just £1, it's a help! Please also share this post to help our reach!

*** RESERVED ***

These beautiful siblings are looking for a new home through no fault of their own! Their elderly owner is no longer coping and has made the heartbreaking decision to find them a new home. They are both friendly and enjoy company. They happily go outside but always come back when called, not going far from their home.

We'd like it if these two could go to their new home together. If you think your home is missing a cat for each leg, have a look at these two!
