Beautiful Capri did not have the best start to life. She was brought to us by a lovely lady who was keeping an eye on a colony of strays when she realised that Capri was pregnant. She gave birth in our care to 7 kittens!

Now her kittens have all grown up and gone to their new homes, Capri is looking for a place to settle for herself!

Capri is a friendly and gentle girl. Since her kittens have gone, shes managed to put some weight back on and has gained lots of energy. She loves to chase toys and chin strokes are her absolute favourite!

Could you give this young lady a place to call home?

How gorgeous is Mr Fiddles! 😍🐹
He’s looking for a home that can provide daily free roam as he’s VERY active and loves his daily floor time outside of his set up.

All hamster species require a cage or tank that’s 100x50x50cm or bigger with lots of enrichment and deep bedding to dig and burrow in.

Let’s talk nails 💅🏻 unfortunately most Guinea pigs arrive in our care with overgrown nails ☹️as you can see in the photo below the nails are way too long, this causes pain and discomfort and is totally avoidable! Regular trimming is an absolute must!

We would advise trimming your piggy’s nails at least a minimum of once per month, some of our fosterers trim the ends every 2-3 weeks, if you don’t feel confident then please book them in with your local vet practice for regular trimming and the vet can show you how to safely do this and with practice it will become so much easier.

Leaving nails to become overgrown and curling causing pain and discomfort is neglect so please please ask for help if you struggle and don’t let your Guinea pigs suffer.

We still have lots of lovely boars still looking for their new homes 🏠 please visit the website for more details.

Meet the goregous Brooke!

She came to us with her 5 kittens after her elderly owner couldn't take care of her anymore.

Although shy at first, she has come leaps and bounds now she is used to her fosterers! She is pretty affectionafe and will take treats from your hand (she's a big fan of dreamies!)

She is so gentle and demure and has the most lovely ears and "bat mask"

She just needs patience and love, and she will thrive in the right home! ♡

This month marks one whole year in rescue for our long stay fluffy boys caramel & Bailey 🖤🖤 sadly, this is becoming the norm for Boars which is really sad 😞 the boys have an amazing foster mum so we’re in no rush, but we do hope this special pair will eventually find their perfect home 🏠

They will require an experienced home with confident owners.

We still have several pairs of boys all patiently waiting for their homes 🏠 so please visit the website for more details!

Don't you love a cat that brushes themselves!

This is Carlito and Gizmo, two adorable persian cats who are looking for their forever home.

Carlito is a champagne persian who is very playful but loves to lie down on a lap for a snooze.

Gizmo is a silver tabby persian who is very gentle and prefers to sleep curled up next to his fosterer.

They will need to go to a Persian experienced home, and as they are bonded, we would prefer to home them together.

Meet Poppy (b&w) and Ivy (tabby)

These two sweethearts were born in March this year and then handed into ARC alongside their mum and 3 siblings when their elderly owner was struggling to cope with the family.

Poppy is slightly bolder than Ivy, being more outgoing and mischievous, but that's not to say that Ivy doesn’t also adore human company! She loves a play just as much as Poppy and loves to chase a ribbon.

As you can see in the photos, these two are currently living with a cat friendly dog and getting along great - even snuggling up on the sofa together!

These two are quite attached to each other, so we hope to find them a nice home together ♡♡

This goregous lady is Meena ♡♡

She was handed into ARC with her kittens after giving birth to them outside.

She had a nasty bite at the base of her tail - likely from defending her kittens from a fox - but after a bit of treatment, she is all healed up!

She is an absolute sweetheart and has really shown her adorable personality since her kittens were rehomed.

She has a very calm, friendly nature and loves people, often balancing on her hind legs to meet a hand held slightly out of her reach for scrubbing and stroking.

She also has a habit of curling her tail over her back quite a lot, which is very sweet.

Now that her babies have left home, she's started to play around with the toys left in her room, so we think she also has a playful side.

Could you give this young mother a place to call home?
