πŸΎπŸ’œ TIMMY IS READY FOR ADOPTION πŸ’œπŸΎ

Timmy has come a long way and is now healthy, happy, fully processed, and ready to find the forever family he deserves πŸ’œπŸΎ

This sweet little one-eyed boy is full of personality, affection, and has a wonderful way of making people smile.

He may only have one eye, but he doesn't let that slow him down one bit.

A very special thank you to SP and Chedza for fostering and caring for Timmy during his recovery journey πŸ’œπŸΎ

Now all Timmy needs is a family of his own.......Could that be you? πŸ’œ

πŸ’œ CHOOSE NOVA FOREVER πŸ’œπŸΎ

Early this year, a little short and stubby girl quietly approached one of our catteries.
She was dehydrated, starving and unsure of the world around her.

We gently gained her trust, secured her and began giving her the care she needed. Food, kindness and love slowly started changing her world.

As the weeks passed, Nova slowly learnt that she was safe.

Then one day, something changed...
Nova relaxed.
Nova believed.
Nova finally felt safe πŸ’œ

Today Nova is a beautiful 2-year-old German Shepherd x Basset Hound mix who LOVES people, adores other dogs and is good on a leash.

Her only challenge is cats, so she is looking for her forever home (no cats please) πŸ’œ

Nova knows what it feels like to be left behind.

Now she is looking for the one thing every rescue deserves...

A forever family where she will feel safe, loved and never left behind again πŸ’œ

Little Nugget πŸ’œπŸΎ

Some of you may remember Nugget's story.

For anyone who may have missed it, you can see where his journey began here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/19faqHvLyE/ πŸ’œ

Nugget was originally bred to be sold, but because of his little front leg, he was about to be PTSπŸ’”.

Thankfully, instead of giving up on him, he was given a chance πŸ’œ

From the very beginning, Nugget showed everyone exactly who he is - happy, playful, affectionate and completely perfect exactly as he is.

Today we are beyond happy to share that Nugget has officially found his forever family πŸ’œ

But there is even more happy news...

Some of you may remember little Tazz the kitten - and we are so excited to share that Nugget has joined the very same wonderful family πŸ’œπŸΎ

A beautiful double adoption and, even better, they are already getting on so well together.

We truly could not have wished for a more wonderful and special family for them. Seeing them welcomed with so much love means more than words can say, and we are incredibly happy knowing they will grow up surrounded by care, kindness and happiness.

Watching rescue journeys come full circle is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

Enjoy your beautiful forever lives, Nugget and Tazz πŸ’œπŸΎ

Look how far Simsim has come.

When she first came into our care, she was tiny and needed time, love and support to help her grow stronger.

Today, she is doing so much better - brighter, stronger, more playful and slowly showing us her little personality every day πŸ’œ

This is exactly why fostering matters. It gives animals the chance to heal, feel safe and simply be kittens again.

She is not quite ready yet, but very soon she will be looking for her forever home and we cannot wait for that special day 🐾

Until then, she is still growing and enjoying life in foster care.

If anyone would like to support her journey, please WhatsApp +267 74548728 πŸ’œ

Meet little Nugget πŸ’œπŸΎ

Nugget was originally bred to be sold, but because he was born with a deformed front leg, there were concerns he would not find a home.

Sadly, the discussion was leaning towards putting him to sleep πŸ’”

Thankfully, instead of giving up on him, he was given a chance πŸ’œ

We are incredibly grateful to the amazing veterinarian who saw beyond his little arm and gave us the opportunity to foster him and help him find the loving future he deserves.

Because to us… Nugget is perfect exactly as he is 🐾

He is happy, playful, affectionate, and already stealing hearts everywhere he goes.

If anyone would like to sponsor Nugget’s journey while he grows, receives veterinary care, and prepares for his forever home, please feel free to reach out to us via WhatsApp on +267-74548728 πŸ’œ

Different doesn’t mean less deserving. Every life matters 🐾

This little one-eyed Maltese doggie was found abandoned near a mall, after a kind lady noticed he had injured his paw πŸ’”πŸΎ

After being assessed by the vet, he was also diagnosed with TVT (Transmissible Venereal Tumour) - a contagious but treatable cancer seen in dogs.

The good news is that with chemotherapy treatment, his prognosis is very positive πŸ’œ

His second round of chemotherapy was yesterday, and he is doing okay so far.

He deserves a chance πŸ’œ

Despite everything he is going through, he is progressing well and we are so happy to be giving him that chance.

TVT is sadly something we see far too often, especially in unsterilised stray and abandoned dogs.

This is one of the current rescue cases in AATFB’s care and he is presently being fostered and looked after by Chedza and his Mum SP, while he recovers and regains his strength.

As you can see, Chedza has become very fond of him and has named him Timmy πŸ’œπŸΎ
