Hi everyone! 🤗

Thank you for sharing our appeal about Rizz - we found a solution for him so all is sorted! 🥰

Our lovely volunteers organised another collection at Morrisons Hastings not too long ago and had a wonderful time - they raised the amazing amount of £259 for Tesa's Rescue; our Halloween razzle sold out and brought in £300 for our non profit cause 🎃 ; our auction raised £570 🥳 Thank you all so very much for the ongoing support and never ending love for our beautiful mission to help as many animals as we possibly can 🥰

We were able to repay the extremely generous loan given to us by one of our wonderful volunteers in order to save Sully and Bertie's lives - they're both still doing well and we are so grateful we could assist these 2 gorgeous rescued Bulldogs.

We helped adorable 12 years old Jacques, the most adorable Tuxie with the cutest white chin, who was in need of a dental - it may sound like a simple procedure but these interventions are really costly and can be financially overwhelming for anyone; Jacques has recovered with no problems and his amazing owner is delighted that her little buddy is no longer in pain. We have created a GFM fundraiser to assist with this bill: https://www.gofundme.com/f/jacques-help-with-medical-bills

Sadly, we helped a kind family say a loving farewell to their extraordinary family member, little Buddy - 15 year old beautiful Jack Russell, who has brought immense joy to everyone who's ever met him; unfortunately his health had declined to a point where his quality of life was jeopardised, his family made the decision, together with the vet, to let him go gently before he was in too much pain. Little Buddy's family is extremely grateful that they were able to hold him, hug him and love him with all their hearts, without the worry of the cost attached to these medical procedures. Sending lots of gentle hugs and much love to his heart broken family 💔❤ ( https://www.gofundme.com/f/tesas-rescue-funds-for-medicallyrecommended-euthanasia )

Our beautiful foster cat Maisie is now adopted! She will go to her very own forever home next week 🥰

Our pretty foster calico Mia also has a forever home lined up - subject to a successful home check, we may have some great news to share in the near future! 🥰

Our adorable foster kittens (Millie's babies) Bear and Ebony have also been adopted and will be going home tomorrow; their brothers, Spirit and Soul, have gone to their forever home earlier this week and have settled in beautifully! 🥰

We are receiving requests for help all the time, whether it's someone needing desperate medical assistance for their pet or someone needing to relinquish their cat(s)... we are trying our hardest to assist with our resources and funds, but the help needed easily outweights our possibilities. Vet bills are so expensive and foster homes are like gold dust... this is why we appreciate your continuous efforts so much 🥰🥰🥰 And if you are thinking of perhaps offering your home or a room in your house as a temporary foster space for a cat please let us know, we can always offer you all the information you need about the fostering process.

As always - thank you all so much for everything you're doing for Tesa's Rescue! 🥰

🥰 Our handsome foster boy Rizz needs a NEW FOSTER HOME asap 🥰

His wonderful foster mum has worked her magic with him, he's playful, friendly, an incredible boy all around - but she's leaving the country next month and, as we've had no adoption inquiries for him so far, we really need a foster home for him.

Preferably pet free OR an environment where he can be separated and/or very slow introductions can be done; INDOORS ONLY; we will continue looking for a forever home for him, we will cover food, litter and any medical bills

Please do let us know if you can help! 🥰

Hello everyone!

We have a very handsome boy available for adoption called Rizz. He is 2 years old, neutered, microchipped, treated for parasites and will be vaccinated soon. He is currently in foster care in Pevensey Bay (East Sussex).

Rizz ended up in rescue following a heart breaking series of events, which led to him becoming homeless. This has affected Rizz greatly but he is doing much better now. He is a friendly cat, loves a fuss, especially getting cuddles on people's laps; in a new environment, he may hide for a while, but eventually - if offered patience - he will come out and start exploring. He's a playful boy, his favourite toy is a rug when he gets the zoomies! He loves human company and sitting by the window watching the world go by. He uses his litterbox and scratchers very well.

Unfortunately Rizz can get territorial around his space and food - the automatic feeder has worked wonders with him in this aspect, he prefers his feeder rather than humans handling his food bowl, but will take treats very gently from anyone. If any food is left out, he will eat it, so caution is needed in this circumstance.

RIZZ'S IDEAL FOREVER HOME:
- adult household only
- patient, understanding, committed owners
- outdoors home if possible (quiet area, safe garden, countryside, away from busy roads) BUT a spacious house with an enclosed catio is also absolutely fine
- no other pets

ADOPTION FEE + ADOPTION CONTRACT + HOME CHECK APPLY. If you would like to adopt Rizz, please send us a message with a paragraph including details about yourself as well as why you think he would be a perfect companion for you. PLEASE KNOW WE WILL ONLY REPLY TO SUITABLE, SERIOUS APPLICATIONS. Thank you for reading. ❤️

Hi all! 🤗

Tesa's Rescue looks after 5 wonderful permanent foster cats: Frankie, AJ, Jess, Charlotte and Skinny Minnie. They all have really upsetting sensitive stories but now they are all safe, extremely loved and very well looked after. Sadly they do not make good candidates for adoption due to their advanced ages, health conditions, lifelong illnesses and huge risk of costly veterinary bills throughout their lives. These beautiful souls will stay with Tesa's Rescue and their loving foster families forever, but we've created a sponsorship scheme to help with their ongoing costs so that we can continue helping more animals, without the worry of a continuous dent in our finances. 🥰

We can afford their some of their medicine expenses, treatments and other necessary medical procedures (surgeries, checks, emergency interventions) but we would REALLY appreciate some help with their food (some costly special diets, some normal diets) and their litter.

Thankfully, Frankie and AJ are now fully sponsored!

JESS - still needs 2 people to donate £10 monthly
CHARLOTTE - still needs 7 people to donate £10 6 weekly
SKINNY MINNIE - still needs 1 person to donate £10 monthly

If you are able to help with any of our AMAZING permanent foster cats we would be ever so grateful 🥰 Thank you so much! 🥰

Please share on your social media if possible - there must be someone special out there for them! 🥰 Thank you! 🥰

Sienna and her babies - ALL ADOPTED! 😍

Sienna is now the centre of attention as she so deserves, Bubbles and Squeak have gone to a forever home together, Peanut and Pickles have also been adopted as a pair while baby Dumpling now lives a fabulous life with another cat and 2 doggies.

They are all doing so well and are extremely loved. Thank you SO VERY MUCH to each and every single one of you who donated for their medical expenses, food + litter while they were in foster care and thank you so much for spreading the word about them.

Yet another happy ending 😍😍😍

18 OCTOBER, SATURDAY, THIS WEEKEND!
Would anybody like to join Tesa's Rescue team for the Bonfire March? 😍

Our wonderful volunteers will be doing a bucket collection and we would love to have more volunteers join us if possible. Dressing up is optional, but if you do decide to wear something fancy - we are advised to avoid wearing highly flammable/fluffy outfits due to health/safety; we are also advised not to walk anywhere near the fire trucks.

The event starts at WHITE ROCK HOTEL - collection buckets will be issued between 5:45pm - 6:45pm to allow time to form up alongside the procession; it is recommended that our volunteers walk through the crowds/on the pavement. The walk will be loud and long (all along the sea front, round the old town, on the beach). Further information about the procession route can be found in programmes and on the HBBS page. Buckets are to be returned at the end of the firework display at WHITE ROCK HOTEL.

It should be great fun! Please do let us know if you'd like to join us, I will add you to a designated group chat - the organiser has told us to bring as many volunteers as we can! 😍

Our beautiful Indigo is now adopted! 😍 We are so happy for her! ❤️

All the team effort lovingly poured into the fostering process (fundraising, vet trips, assessing behaviour, help with socialising), lengthy phone calls to establish compatibility, conducting thorough home checks, signing contracts and transferring adoption fees - everything pays off and blossoms into the most beautiful outcome: a rescue cat forever safe and always loved 😍

Wishing little Indigo and her new owner a wonderful life together ❤️

Hi all! 🤗

We need an old, broken shed removed from a property and taken to the tip. Measurements are roughly 9ft X 4 ft

Please would anyone with a van be able to help us out please? ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Instead of the old shed we'd be looking to erect a fully enclosed cat pen which would help us temporarily house and spay/neuter feral cats until a longer term solution is found ❤️❤️❤️

Good evening!

We've made some more fantastic progress that we would like to share with you in regards to our sponsorship scheme for our permanent foster cats! 🥰 As mentioned in our previous appeals for help, we look after 5 wonderful cats who cannot be adopted due to their advanced ages, health conditions, illnesses and huge risk of costly veterinary bills throughout their lives. They will stay with Tesa's Rescue and their loving foster families forever, but we've created a sponsorship scheme to help with their ongoing costs so that we can continue helping more animals, without the worry of a continuous dent in our finances. 🥰

These gorgeous cats are Skinny Minnie, Frankie, AJ, Charlotte and Jess. Minnie, Frankie and AJ are all sorted and fully sponsored by wonderful people, so Charlotte + Jess are the only ones left to sort out!

Here we have the up to date sponsorship scheme:
- JESS - 7 out of 9 wonderful sponsors found
- CHARLOTTE - 3 out of 10 wonderful sponsors found

JESS - we need 2 more people to donate £10 per month for her special diet + litter; CHARLOTTE - we need 7 more people to donate £10 every 6 weeks for her special diet and steroids injection

If you are able to help with either Jess or Charlotte please let us know! From her adorable pirate ship, Charlotte says thank you to everyone who's offered so far! 🥰🥰🥰

How wonderful is this - our beautiful Mia enjoying some pets on her foster mum's lap ❤️

Shortly after her arrival with us, we noticed that Mia's skin was irritated, she had been over grooming potentially due to stress, causing a bloody wound on the back of her neck as well as some fur loss. On top of that, her foster mum spotted an ocular worm alive and wriggling at the corner of her eye. No wonder the poor little soul was hissing, lashing out and scratching!

Rushing a very stressed cat to the vet so soon after arrival in foster care was not ideal, but it was necessary - her beautiful cat cave bed went into the pet carrier with her, Mia was given a sedative with her breakfast prior to her appointment and it seemed to work as she was very cooperative during the vet check. Mia received an anti-inflammatory injection to help with her overall itchiness and a parasite treatment to get rid of the worm in her eye.

Since then, Mia has been very loving, sweet, craving human attention, she hasn't been scratching and we haven't noticed any redness or discomfort around her eyes, we haven't seen the worm either - all of these hopefully mean that we've sorted her medical issues out and Mia is feeling much more comfortable now ❤️❤️❤️

We have updated her fundraiser to reflect the new vet bill: https://www.gofundme.com/f/mia-help-with-foster-care-and-medical-bills

About Us

Tesa’s Rescue is a small team of volunteers who work tirelessly to provide rescue animals with a safe present and a bright future.

Tesa is my very own dog, the reason why the charity has started and the reason why it will go on forever. I found her on the harsh streets, running aimlessly, she was very skinny, had fur loss all over her body, her stomach had shrunk and she had broken teeth. We wanted to train her before finding her a forever home as she was unadoptable due to her behaviour issues. Little did we know we'd fall in love with her irrevocably! She teaches foster dogs how to love life, making amazing first impressions to anybody who might be interested in our work and making my life THE BEST with her sheer presence

We now foster cats and dogs, socialise them, train the dogs so that they become adoptable and watch them blossom in their forever homes!

We help cats and dogs from the UK, Romania, Cyprus -or wherever they might need assistance! We do our best to find them excellent homes and see them happy!
