Midlands Animal Rescue - MART Midlands Animal Rescue Team (MART) is a registered charity (No 500917.) Established around 60 years ago, and run entirely by volunteers.

We cover as much of the West Midlands as our limitations allow, rescuing & rehabilitating animals in need. Midlands animal rescue team was founded in a small Shropshire village of Albrighton by a group of local caring people. The charity was registered in 1971, after already operating for 10 years, we now cover as much of the West Midlands as limitations allow. We rescue, rehabilitate and re-home

animals whose well being could be in danger. All our rescues receive any veterinary treatment needed before re-homing, and the charity has a strict non destruction policy. All our animals are neutered before re-homing, provided they are old enough. We do not have a rescue centre but rely on a small band of dedicated volunteers who operate mainly from home. The biggest benefit of this is that we keep our running costs down. No premises to up keep and no wages to pay, mean that all our hard earned funds can be spent directly where it is needed; on the animals in our care. Having said all of the above, nothing would give us greater pleasure or allow us to do the greatest good than being able to open our own rescue centre. To do this we would need a large semi-rural plot of land with accommodation plus an obscene amount of money with which to run it! Well other charities seem to have amazing things gifted to them, until it happens to us we will keep dreaming!! In the meantime, MART is hoping to expand the work we do & are always looking to recruit more cat & dog fosterers. If you would like to offer help, please visit our website and read our “join our team” or "foster for MART" pages for ideas. www.midlandsanimalrescue.com

whatever you are interested in you will find comprehensive information & relevant contact details, plus details of the animals in our care

***************************************************************************
Things you should be aware of;

All potential adoptions begin with an informal conversation, please be sure to call the number advertised as we can't always answer messages and mail

MART always carries out home checks. In order for MART to continue its work we do ask where ever possible, for a suggested minimum adoption fee of £60/cat or kitten & £350/ dog or puppy (unless stated otherwise)

We vaccinate & neuter all cats & dogs whilst with us providing they're old enough and it is safe to do so, we also microchip wherever it is practical to do so. We routinely de-flea & worm all our rescues. Any animals in our care that need further medical treatment are guaranteed the best veterinary care.

As expected the little poorly one died shortly after coming home yesterday 😥 it's always so sad when they arrive too far gone.

Thankfully the remaining 5 babies are doing well, they're all eating and gaining weight.

We have caught a long haired cat we hope might be their momma but it's still unclear because she's too afraid/feral to be examined and of course the hair gets in the way of a sneaky peek.

There was no reaction when we showed her the babies so we thought it best to not push it. Hopefully we should know more tomorrow after a vet visit 😸

Oh dear, it never just rains...........

I've not long come back from collecting this little bundle. Sadly one was already dead and another is trying very hard to die. The other 5 seem okay for the moment

One of our team has been doing TNR nearby for several months, it's where King, Lori, Lumiere and Pann all came from.

Unfortunately the mother cat to these new babies, has evaded capture so far, but she really needs to join her babies as soon as possible.

Until that happens they'll need to be hand fed by yours truly 😅
Don't forget, if you feel the need to foster please call me, late morning might be best at the moment with so much going on 😁

Baby Ora seems to be doing well..........

She feels nice and solid now instead of a tiny bag of bones, which is such a relief.

Please keep up the good work Miss Ora ✅ xx

When 3 become 1 😞.............

Sadly 2 of the poorly babies that arrived in care on Tuesday evening haven't survived.

This little poppet seems to be doing better but of course it's still early days.

Please keep everything crossed that she stays strong and grows up to be a big girl 🙏🏼 xx

Morning, King here.........

I thought I'd pop in and say hello because those pesky kids seem to be getting all the lime light just lately.

I've been here just over 6 months now and still no sign of a home for me.

It's funny how when Otto chews on hands people think it's cute but when I do it, it's the end of da world 🙄 luckily I don't do it much at all now, but Aunty Bev still doesn't think I could live with children.

I know I was a bit mean to the boy who arrived with me, but I actually do like other cats. I spend lots of time chirruping away at them through the bars until they eventually give in and join my fan club 😁 So there's a chance I could live with another kitty.

So if you like the look of me but have another sociable cat, why not call up about me.

Please remember that all potential adoptions begin with a telephone call 07471205605
Up to 6pm most days xx

Otto here.......

I'm feeling a bit better today, fanks to everyone for asking after me 🥰

Dis was me last night after I'd had my din-dins. Can you see how sore my leggies are? Well they are less achy today, which is good.

Thankfully I didn't do a dramatic collapse, I thought about pretending but I don't think mummy Bev's heart could have taken it 😁 xx

Waiting for my little pal Otto to feel better, so we can play again......Love Pann xx

I'm feeling under da weather today pals.......

I didn't eat my supper last night and my leggies are sore.

Mummy Bev thinks it's something to do with my pal Pann having his first inoculations last Friday, and I may have picked up some of the germies from his vaccine.

Thankfully I've had a teensy bit of medicine today so I've managed to eat a few morsels but I've told mum to keep da vet on speed dial, just in case I collapse dramatically 🤒

Love Otto xx

Pann (left) and Baby Otto seem to be a great match.........
Otto is getting the companionship he really needs and is slowly learning to be more gentle with his teeth and claws.
Pann is growing in confidence and learning that da hooman can be trusted, as a result, this is the wonderful greeting I get every time I come up to their room.

Otto says "come on pal, grubs up!" 😁 xx

And they say going to the loo in pairs is a girl thing.......Try telling Pann and Otto that 🤔🤣

Otto here.......
Can you see me? 👀

Look at all da space I have, it makes me look super shmall.

My house used to be downstairs on da table but naughty Archie (aka landshark) wanted to eat me 😳 so mummy Bev has moved my house upstairs in da kitty playroom, where I'll be safe

There's so many new toys and fings to do, so I won't get bored. Mummy says she'll come and give me cuddles all da time so that's nice.

There's rumours that Pann might come to keep me company too, apawrently I need to learn how to play nicely wiff other kitties, so that I don't grow up to be a bitey little bu**er 🤷🏼‍♂️

Nova went into a different foster home 3 weeks ago.........Here she is relaxing with her big brother, Harry, who was also a MART cat.

She has one more bit of gossip before she signs off and she's asked if I would pass it on 😁

Apawrently, she's become what is often referred to as a "foster fail" which means that her foster mum Vicki has officially adopted her 🥳

Congratulations Dixie, as she is now known. We are all so very happy for you xx

Poor Archie......Nobody seems to want him.

Yes he's naughty but in his defense, he is a Frenchie.

A good walk and lunchtime snack, and this is the result.
Hopefully one day, he will get the hang of sleeping in a bed 😜🤣 xx

Look who's starting to relax.......

Pann is already letting me stroke him, he's hopefully going to be ready for a new home in no time 🤞🏼 xx

I'm back! ..........

Did you miss me yesterday? Sorry, but I'd done so much typing, I was in danger of blunting my clawsies.

What do you think of da new boy? I'm hoping to meet him for a playdate when I'm big enough but mummy Bev says we'll have to see how things go.

I am growing fast though, now I'm eating my meaties, I'm putting on some much needed grams.

See you tomorrow, love Otto xx
