Cottage Rescue works in a home environment, with specially built kennels and runs to house the rescue animals in. They are also brought into our homes to be properly assessed so that they can be re-homed more successfully. We work closely with our adopters by doing home-checks to find out just what they are looking for in their new animal. We are then able to match the new adopter with the animal
that will best suit their home and family life. A small adoption fee is required to help cover the costs of vaccinations and veterinary treatment the animal has received before going into its new home. We investigate reports of cruelty to animals and where necessary we bring in Vets and the Guards in order to bring charges against the owner. We often take in dogs and horses from desperate situations and they require extensive medical care before they can be rehomed. The rescue is continuing to grow and as it is we are constantly looking for more ways to raise funds to help us continue caring for the animals. You might be curious about where the donations to Cottage Rescue are spent. When we receive donations the money goes directly into an account set up for Cottage Rescue. The money is then spent on veterinary bills which include vaccinations, microchipping, worm doses, neutering/spaying, flea treatments, and any other care that the animals coming in may need, we also purchase dog food, horse feed and bedding for the animals. The bills for the Rescue are never-ending and we are always very grateful for any donations! Anyone interested in rehoming animal or needing information, can contact us as we are always happy to answer any questions. Please do understand that the Rescue is run by only one volunteer and she is often kept busy dealing with the rescue that it is impossible to answer the phone each time it rings and that I can only return emergency calls, I do my best to keep up with the phone calls but sometimes I might be in the middle of caring for the animals or transporting when a phone call arrives. Your understanding and patience is greatly appreciated when calling. Cottage Rescue has been approved for Charitable Status 4th May 2017 Registered Charity Number (RCN) 20105464
