Welcome, welcome beautiful Bumble! 🥰🥰🥰

Tesa's Rescue has been kindly asked to assist as Bumble must part ways with the family who has loved her deeply for the past 13 years, following a series of heart breaking circumstances which have made it impossible for them to stay together. Thankfully, we had a foster home ready to welcome this lovely girl and offer her all the cuddles and love in the world.

Our plan is to settle Princess Bumble into her new foster home, take her for a full vet check up to make extra sure everything is OK health wise and then find her the perfect forever home.

We've started this fundraiser to help with the costs of beautiful Bumble's care: https://www.gofundme.com/f/bumble-help-with-foster-care-rehoming 🥰🥰🥰

🥰 BONDED PAIR IN NEED OF A FOSTER/FOREVER HOME 🥰

Due to their owners' personal circumstances, these 2 young female cats need to find a foster home or a forever home ASAP - they're very friendly to people and cats, but don't like dogs; they're super affectionate and love cuddles. Grey tabby (Bengal mix) is spayed; orange tabby isn't. Both are vaccinated + treated for parasites + microchipped. BOTH INDOORS CATS.

Tesa's Rescue would be happy to support them with food, litter and medical bills - they just need a safe place to hang out for a while until they are adopted.

Please do let us know if you could help, we will gladly tell you everything there is to know about our fostering process.

Thank you!!! 🥰

Our handsome boy Rizz is now ADOPTED 🥰

King of his new forever home, the centre of attention - to the delight of his new owner, Rizz has adapted really well after only a couple of days, he's now exploring his new environment, playing and purring away sitting on his favourite place in the world: someone's lap! 🥰

That super special person we've been waiting for did come forward for Rizz, opened his heart and his home to a wonderful rescue cat, offered him patience and now the story is unfolding beautifully.

Heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in this amazing happy ending - the person who contacted us about him, everyone who donated for his medical bills, food and litter, the volunteers who drove him anywhere he needed and conducted the home check, the foster mum and of course the new owner.

All of this happens under the protective wings of Tesa's Rescue, lovingly run by our our fantastic team of volunteers 🥰

Have a nice life, Rizz!!! ❤❤❤

Hi everyone! ❤️

Tesa's Rescue received an urgent request to help an injured cat who had suffered a freak accident - poor little Mog got caught in a window, had fallen outwards and, scrambling to free herself, sadly broke her left back leg; we can't possibly imagine the pain this cat went through when this happened. Mog was given pain killers while her distraught owner began looking for help for this beautiful 1 year old cat.

Following X-rays, the vets concluded they could save the leg, but these medical interventions are very costly and a quote of £2,070 can be financially overwhelming for anyone. A wonderful charity offered to donate £300 towards the cost and, thanks to one of our incredible volunteers, we agreed to help with the rest of the money as she very kindly offered us a loan at super short notice. Mog is now recovering steadily and hopefully there will be no problems with her progress as she's a very healthy young cat ❤️ We're overjoyed she could keep her leg as before the X-rays were taken there was talk of amputation.

Mog's owner is extremely grateful for the assistance received ❤️❤️❤️ We've started this fundraiser in the hope that we can raise the necessary funds to repay the generous loan which ensured very quick medical intervention for a gorgeous little cat. The vet bill addressed to us was £1,770 - https://www.gofundme.com/f/mog-help-with-medical-bills ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much for reading and sharing! ❤️❤️❤️

💝 TESA'S RESCUE TREE OF REMEMBRANCE 💝

This year, we thought it would be a really sweet idea to honour the memory of beloved pets who have had a profound impact on our lives but have sadly passed on; we will set up a beautiful Christmas tree and lovingly add all sorts of beautiful decorations as well as your cherished pets' names (or pictures). We are hoping to create a lovely display of remembrance and love to gently soothe all the broken hearts who have not been able to heal ❤

This is a community event that many charities take part in. Our wonderful pets are now the brightest little stars in the sky looking after us the way we so adoringly looked after them, and there are so many lovely little angels on earth who need our help on a daily basis.

Tesa's Rescue, a very small charity, aims to support the local community by offering medical assistance to animals in need of emergency / life saving surgeries / treatments, at the same time helping their kind owners on low income cover these veterinary bills when medical costs become overwhelming. The name comes from a much beloved dog, called TESA - rescued as a stray in a dreadful condition, she blossomed into the most amazing sweetest dog. She has sadly passed on but her extraordinarily friendly and kind nature, despite her rough start in life, inspired the creation of TESA'S RESCUE, which hopes to help pets and people.

Many families on low income face the heart breaking possibility of rehoming their beloved pets when unexpected vet costs arise, Tesa's Rescue hopes to ease these burdens, save lives and keep pets where they belong - with the families who love them. We have developed fantastic relationships with the local vets and liaise directly with local clinics, therefore payments go straight into vet accounts.

Tesa's Rescue also fosters and rehomes cats in need of help, who have been surrendered, abandoned and have nobody to look after them.

We run solely on donations received from the kindness of members of the public and for this reason any form of help is greatly appreciated ❤

HOW TO TAKE PART:
- fill in our form
- feel welcome to send a small donation (bank or PayPal)
- your wonderful pet's name will be lovingly added to our beautiful Tree of Remembrance

Please message us for the form and bank/PayPal details ❤

LOCATION: St Clement's Church, Swan Terrace, Hastings TN34 3HT

DATE OF VIEWING THE TREE: 29 Nov, 30 Nov, 5-7 Dec 2025 ❤

Thank you all so much for reading ❤❤❤

MILLIE'S BABIES HAVE ALL BEEN ADOPTED! 🥰

Bear and Bunny went to their forever home together and have settled in beautifully; Spirit and Soul made themselves at home and love their new canine buddy, little Freya 🥰

It really is wonderful to create happy outcomes for situations which had a huge risk of ending badly. Millie is a feral cat who was humanely trapped by a loving person who looks out for the forgotten souls of the streets; it turned out she was already very pregnant and soon enough she brought 4 tiny kittens into the world. Thankfully, they were born in an extremely kind and caring environment and they blossomed into gorgeous, friendly kittens with the best chances of being adopted 🥰 Millie is currently learning that being a house cat is not actually that bad... she's getting more and more comfortable with people and her rescuer is happy to offer her all the patience in the world. Millie has done a fabulous job at raising her babies and now she can relax and enjoy life! 🥰

Thank you SO much to everyone who has helped this wonderful family one way or another, whether it was sharing their story, conducting home checks for potential owners or donating money for their food, litter and various medical bills (parasite treatments, vaccinations, microchips). And of course, a huge thank you to their rescuer, who saved Millie's life and looked for further help responsibly. All 4 babies have their spay + neuter surgeries booked for early January 2026.

Have a beautiful life, little ones!!!! 🥰

Hi everyone!

Our recent auction raised £333 😍 Thank you all so much for participating and making these online activities super fun 🥰

A little update on the sponsorship scheme for our permanent foster cats: beautiful Charlotte needs 6 more people to donate £10 every 6 weeks for her food and medication (we already have 4 people on board) whereas beautiful Jess needs 1 last person to donate £10 every month for her special diet and litter (we already have 8 people on board); AJ, Frankie and Skinny Minnie are fully sponsored! ❤❤❤

Speaking of Skinny Minnie - he gave us quite the scare, his foster mum noticed blood around his cheek, the vet believes he may have been scratched a few days prior as this was not a fresh wound. Skinny Minnie received a pain killer injection + antibiotic injection and he was sent home with a few tablets; our handsome boy should be back to normal in no time ❤ ( https://www.gofundme.com/f/skinny-minnie-help-with-medical-bills-rehoming )

Very sadly, at the beginning of the week, we helped a gorgeous 24 year old cat named Lara rest forever 💔❤ What a remarkable age for this lovely soul. We're sending gentle hugs and all of our love to her heartbroken owner who absolutely adored her 💔❤ ( https://www.gofundme.com/f/tesas-rescue-funds-for-medicallyrecommended-euthanasia )

We have kindly been asked to take in 3 adorable adult cats, we will present them to you as soon as they arrive in their respective foster homes. They will all need to be spayed + neutered, vaccinated and treated for worms, we are informed they could potentially be microchipped already but we will double check of course. It really is a blessing when we are able to assist animals in need, however each cat we welcome into rescue will most likely bring significant costs, from food + litter to all sorts of medical bills. This is why we continuously fundraise and this is why we are so grateful to you all for continuously supporting us! 🥰🥰🥰

Upcoming: our online Christmas bazaar (starting 18 November - ending 22 November) and our Christmas razzle scheduled for 15 December 🥰 If you happen to have any items in fabulous condition which we could use as prizes please let us know! Also - if you're part of our fundraising group ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/236696107207232 ) feel welcome to list items for our bazaar anytime, we will hold them and release them on 18 November. If you're not able to list, our volunteers are always happy to collect donations! 🥰

Thank you so much for all your efforts for Tesa's Rescue! 🥰

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! 🥰

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! 🥰

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!
