Not all of our dogs live long happy lives. Fern who has only just turned 3 is on end of life, and losing her is going to hit the charity hard. Listen to her story and updates.

Donโ€™t forget that if youโ€™d love to sponsor or donate to help Fern, she would be forever grateful. Ferns level of care costs the charity hundreds every week but sheโ€™s worth every penny.

Please read this advert VERY carefully and only apply if you have read it properly. We are aware this is a very long adoption advert but sadly there is no way around it, people need to know absolutely everything about this poor little guy before making any decisions.

Firstly, let's begin with why this is a lifelong foster advert and not an adoption advert. We understand Max will require a lot of commitment and continued training and by eliminating the additional factor of money that comes with a dog that is 8 years young, we hope to encourage the perfect person to come forward as this is about love and dedication and not finances. Max has had 8 -10 moves in his life and we MUST make sure this doesn't happen again as Max just will not cope with yet another move. Please only apply if you are truly committed to the hard times as well as the good, this poor dog cannot be failed again.

โ€œWe cannot believe the change in this little dog over the months, Max is going to make somebody a wonderful little dog and he finally deserves his happy ever after โ€

Max, an 8 years young Bedlington Terrier, came into the care of Flori's Friends back in the summer of 2024. This little dog had been through 7 homes during his life and we couldnโ€™t understand why this little โ€œfull of life, loving bundle of fluffโ€ had been passed from pillar to post. We were provided with very little background story on Max, which is not unusual for most of the animals we take in, so we could only go on what we saw. However we now realise that Maxโ€™s issue is with men, which means that he cannot live with men, therefore requires a single female only home to prevent any further trauma and allow this wonderful little dog to live a happy stress free life. He can absolutely have male visitors to the home, however Max must be kept separate from them when they are present. Max can also walk past men when out on walks with no problems whatsoever.

Despite currently living with 3 other dogs, Max needs to be the only pet in the house so that all the attention and time can be spent on him. However if you have friends with calm, well mannered dogs, he will happily accompany them on a walk. Max walks lovely on a lead, and is kept on a long line currently where he can explore freely. We donโ€™t think he is the type of dog to run off, but as he has only been in his current placement for 10 weeks he is not yet ready to be left of the lead until a true bond has been built which can take months.

Max also requires somebody who has experience with dogs with past trauma, so he is not a dog for the novice owner, or those that think love alone with conquer all. Max requires consistency every single day, working on building his confidence and setting clear boundaries in the home, something Max has never had. Max was initially reactive to sounds such as car keys, and the doorbell as well as people moving outside of the home. He had been allowed to climb all over furniture, have free roam of the house and sit and bark at passes by which created frantic behaviours in the home - with him running back and forth and getting himself worked up. Therefore, any owner must understand that a clear training plan has been put in place and new owners must follow it to ensure he continues to be a stress free dog.

Max is the perfect dog to handle, he loves cuddles, can be bathed at home, brushed, nails clipped, coats put on and off. He has no food or toy aggression he is a very well mannered dog. He is a good boy at the vets, the groomers and loves his pamper days - away from the presence of men he is the perfect loving dog. Max requires someone who either works from home, or is only out for a few hours at a time. He has spent his whole life either being abandoned, when all he wants to do is finally find his forever mummy and spend quality time with them. Max loves to go in the car and would happily be an office dog, as long as the office is quiet and he has his own space away from people, especially men. Max is lazy at heart, he loves the quiet life living in a quiet location and quiet home - he wants to spend time alone with his human and just sleep. If you love a lie in then Max is the dog for you, he sleeps all night long and most of the day, likes a little walk twice and day and just wants to be loved - he is a very simple dog.

The Hardest Goodbye ๐Ÿ˜ž

These are always the hardest videos to share, but this is the reality of loving animals, we give them everything, and one day, we have to let them go.

Mishka is on his last days. At approx 20 years old, he has defied all odds and has been here long before Floriโ€™s even existed. He has been the heart of our rescue, the man of the house, and the best daddy to so many dogs over the years. Now, we are taking shifts to make sure he is never alone, keeping him comfortable and surrounded by love until his very last breath.

We will be absolutely broken when he goes, but we are so grateful for every moment weโ€™ve had. Thank you to everyone who has followed his journey, sponsored him, and loved him from afar. He is, and always will be, one in a million โ€ฆ our grandad grumpus โค๏ธ

Still no applications for our golden oldies Keiko and Mila,

We highly recommend older cats as they are calmer and more settled and just want and deserve luxury in their golden years. These two just want a peaceful sofa to curl up on, a belly rub now and then and the odd bit of catnip ๐Ÿคฃ

The other day, we took in a heavily pregnant cat all the way from London, sheโ€™s about to give birth any moment now, so we knew we had to step in!

We havenโ€™t had a chance to post pictures yet (as you can imagine, weโ€™ve been busy settling her in), but rest assured, the team at Floriโ€™s is ready to help her bring her little ones into the world safely. Stay tuned for updates!

** Available to meet in Kent**

Say hello to the super handsome duo Marvin and Eugene!

These little fellas are around 15-17 weeks old and have had a really tough start in life being found as strays in someone's garden. Marvin (black and white) is a happy go lucky Chappy, who purrs away all day and likes to cuddle and play like any other kitten. Eugene (ginger and white) is a shy boy who needs a little more time to come out of his shell but is totally non aggressive and happy to be petted very gently. Eugene loves his toys just as much as Marvin. In a forever home we have absolutely no doubt that Eugene will be a total lap cat like Marvin, he just need a little more time.

Both cats are healthy, vaccinated, chipped and adopters will be eligible for free neutering under the rescue once they are old enough. These guys bring so much joy to anyone who spends time with them. Their characters are goofy, loving and brave considering what they have been through.

We are looking for a home with catflap access or a catio as they wouldn't like to be indoor cats. They get on SO well with other cats and would slot into a multi cat home extremely well. They can live with children age 10+ and very calm dogs that won't get too in their face.

Although they are currently enjoying life in rescue we would really like to see them grow up with a forever family rather than in a cattery.

Please get in touch via the website if you think this lovely pair are for you

Every day we are turning away countless animals that we simply don't have the funds to take in, and yes, we know we constantly ask for donations, but the truth is, without them, we simply canโ€™t do what we do.

If youโ€™re an animal lover, you know how expensive caring for even one pet can be, now imagine running a rescue. Food, vet bills, medication, surgeries, physiotherapy, insuranceโ€ฆ it never stops. And as a charity, we take that hit every single day for the sake of these animals.

Every single donation, no matter how big or small, makes a difference. It helps us provide life-saving care, rehabilitation, and a second chance to those who have no one else. The more support we receive, the more animals we can save.

Please, if you can, donate today. Because without you, there is no us. โค

**Available to meet in Kent, Please share for these sad kitties**

Meet our golden oldies Keiko and Mila,

Both 12 year young and came In absolutely heart broken to have lost their owner to dementia. This calm, loving pair struggled so very badly coming into rescue. They lost everything they knew and were so depressed for a number of weeks. They have since settled down and are enjoying lots of fuss and cuddles from the staff but they are definitely feeling very lonely as our attention here is spread thin. They would be so very grateful to have a home of their own again, where they can finally take a sigh of relief without lots of noisy barking and lonely nights.

Both cats have been fully health checked, blood tested, neutered, vaccinated and chipped and have no health conditions/ are healthy cats. Mila (black cat) is over weight but is slowly losing weight. Keiko and Mila are two very different cats. Mila keeps herself to herself and you don't even know she is there. She is not a lap cat but really enjoys sitting near you and having a stroke (she will purr away and is so very grateful), whereas Keiko is very confident, interactive and happy to be picked up and cuddled. They are a harmonious pair and aren't very high maintenance. They do however need to get to know their owner a little before moving as this will help them feel safer when they have to undergo another move. Anyone interested in adopting them we ask come and spend a little time with them before taking them home. Adopting these two will truly be rescuing a cat, they so badly need this for their mental health.

These cats do not deserve to sit alone in rescue for much longer and we would be so happy to see them find a place to call home. Although these guys are self sufficient, we would ideally like an adopter who is home a little more than the 9-5 'er to reassure them that they are safe and loved. Keiko and Mila require a home with outdoor access via a cat flap (as this is what they have been used to) and not near any busy, main roads. They have had a really hard time recently and have so much love to give so we would like a nice quieter home with no other pets or young children to minimise their stress.

In the right home these guys will be wonderful to have around, they just want to be loved and safe.

Please get in touch via the Flori's Friends website if you could be their happy ever after

18/03/2025

In the lead-up to co-hosting the 2030 FIFA World Cup with Spain and Portugal, Morocco has initiated a controversial campaign to cull up to three million stray dogs. This effort aims to enhance the country's image for incoming tourists but has ignited global outrage among animal welfare organisations and activists.

The primary objective of this mass culling is to present Moroccan cities as clean and welcoming to the influx of football fans expected during the World Cup. Authorities are concerned that the presence of numerous stray dogs could negatively impact the country's reputation and deter tourism.

Moroccan authorities are utilising inhumane methods to reduce the stray dog population, including poisoning dogs with strychnine, a highly toxic chemical, either through direct injection or contaminated food. Gunmen patrol day and night, indiscriminately shooting dogs, often leaving them to suffer slow, agonising deaths.

Survivors of these initial attempts are allegedly subjected to further brutality, such as being beaten to death with shovels, or stabbed to death (the images were have seen are distressing, barbaric and too distressing to share on here)

Animal Welfare Organisations such as the have been campaigning tirelessly to end the violent and inhuman killings and you can do your bit by signing the petition here. https://iawpc.org/iawpc/
Just 1 minute out of your day could help to stop this.

We all need to take action - contact FIFA, sign petitions, and demand accountability.

Speak up - Donโ€™t let football cost innocent lives.
