Todays valuable lesson is from our dearest Baloo ... the sweetheart amongst the stars!
When that tiny body, with wide, determined eyes refuses to wait for his bottle. His tiny little paws bat at the bottle impatiently as if he is telling the entire world "I can do this myself". Our dearest little Baloo has a spirit that is as big as any adult cat's heart.
Who needs waiting when you've got the courage to try!

URGENT NOTE: Please be aware that Phoebe is not available for adoption at this time. She will only become available once our medical team is confident in her progress. We appreciate the interest in giving her a home, but this is not feasible right now. We currently have 158 other dogs ready for adoption, and we encourage you to come meet them. Thank you! ❤🐾
Welcome home, Phoebe! A new life awaits you!
Tonight, we are filled with joy and gratitude. Guess who came home today? We asked for a miracle—and we received one. Our hearts soared with excitement and appreciation as we heard from our vets this morning.
Facing the difficult decisions about treatment or letting an animal go can be challenging. While some may find this decision straightforward, it’s never black-and-white when a life is involved. Each case has its unique circumstances, urging us to trust in making the best decisions for each animal. As a foundation, we focus on the "NO HOPE" cases, determined to give every creature the second chance they deserve.
Imagine our overwhelming joy when we saw the video of Phoebe walking this morning. Words fall short of capturing that moment—it felt surreal, as if we were afraid to believe it was real.
Our vets have closely monitored Phoebe, and despite our hopes, hesitance lingered as we feared disappointment. But today, we finally had a reason to celebrate our beautiful girl.
Phoebe returned home this afternoon with strict instructions for cage rest. Kerry-Jean, one of our dedicated team members, has embraced the responsibility of guiding Phoebe through her rehabilitation. Phoebe has a long journey ahead, but we remain hopeful, knowing only time will reveal whether she will fully recover or need surgery for her fractures.
Kerry-Jean spent time with Phoebe this afternoon, even taking a short nap with her in her cage, assuring Phoebe that she will never be alone again.
At this point, our vets are uncertain about potential surgeries for her fractures, bu

When one of our amazing supporters visits us and they get a special new toy ...
Basilea thoroughly enjoyed her "playdate" when 4 students from the Labori High School visited our Sanctuary to do their Community Service Hours. We cannot but wonder who went to bed early that evening 😜

A special GOOD MORNING message from our very special Squirtle. Thomasina also wanted to join in with a special good morning message but we think Squirtle stole this moment 😜.
We currently have 5 tortoises who also lives in peace with everyone in our garden. Squirtle has been with us since April 2018 already after he has been attacked by crows on our property.
Albert knows that he is a gorgeous, spectacular, dramatic and magnificent personality ...
Albert has his own distinct personality and some of our cats would rather avoid him ... 🤫 🤣 than making friends with him 🤣.
So when we test our dogs with our cats (to see if they are cat friendly) then Albert needs some time out because he don't know how to behave when he meet a dog 😂
