✨Sunday Stories- Asta & Espen ✨

❤️ Our beautiful Asta and Espen have now been in our care for over 3 years. Three years of watching them grow, getting to know their little personalities and making sure they have always had a safe, happy and loving place to call home 😺🥰

✨ Many of you will already know their story, but for our newer supporters…

Asta and Espen arrived with us in December 2022 as young kittens. They eventually became seriously unwell with the awful feline pox virus and were incredibly poorly. Tragically, they lost their brother Jesper 💔. Asta and Espen fought so hard to pull through, but what they went through left its mark on them, both physically and emotionally 😥

As time went on, further health and behavioural challenges arose, but none of this takes away from the truly wonderful cats they are. They are sweet, funny, cheeky and loving, and both have such special personalities. They show their love in their own ways, but we understand them, appreciate them and love them exactly as they are 🧡

We know they could settle really well into the RIGHT home and despite everything they have been through, they are still young, healthy cats with so much life and love to give. Their health and behavioural needs are something that need to be understood and managed, but they are not all that Asta and Espen are.

For now, the sanctuary is very much their home. They are settled, loved and well cared for here, and they are not in need of a home urgently. However, if the right forever foster home came along, we would absolutely consider it and would love for them to have that opportunity 🏡❤️ (forever foster means a home for life with the sanctuary supporting and covering veterinary costs)

They need a specific type of home because of their individual needs, and we would never compromise on that. They need stability, routine, patience and someone who can give them the time and understanding they deserve.

They don't need someone to change them. They just need someone who understands them and loves them for who they are 🥹

After everything they have been through, we feel incredibly lucky to have Asta and Espen as part of our sanctuary family. They have a safe place here for as long as they need it, but we also believe there could be a special home out there where they could thrive in a different way.

We will simply wait for the right one to come along ❤️

🐴 Alfie recently had his coat clipped by Jane, the lovely vet from 608 Equine Vets.

Alfie has PPID (Equine Cushing's Disease). Due to this disease, Alfie feels the heat more than most due to finding it difficult to regulate his body temperature and also developing a thick coat (both of these traits are common with the disease).

🐎Alfie was diagnosed with PPID (Equine Cushings Disease) in 2019. He is on daily prascend tablets, which help to manage his PPID. He has breathing difficulties that are linked to his PPID. To help him breathe more easily, he has two types of inhalers that he takes twice daily. Alfie lives a very comfortable life, and we make sure that all of his welfare needs are met. He is also medicated for insulin resistance (similar to type 2 diabetes in people).

Alfie needs his coat clipped a couple of times per year due to the thickness of his coat. Alfie can become quite uncomfortable, especially in the summer months due to the increase in temperature, so it's important that we have his coat clipped before he feels uncomfortable.

Our lovely vet came out to do Alfie and Bungle's dentals last week. So, while Alfie was sedated for his dental, she clipped his coat, too 🙂

Alfie is quite an anxious pony, and he can become nervous with the clippers. His carer Val has done lots of humane training with him to prepare him for his coat clip, but he's not confident enough to have it done without sedation. So we do whatever is best to help him stay as stress free and as comfortable as possible.

Alfie was such a good boy standing for sedation and stood lovely for his dental and clip. His carer Val supported him throughout his vet appointment to make sure he was at ease and comfortable ✨️

He feels much cooler now, and the vet said his teeth are looking good and is pleased with his overall condition.

Here is a photo of our beautiful Alfie after his clip last Monday 🐴

🏡 Charlie is finally ready to find his forever home! 🏡

Looking for a home on a foster-to-adopt basis ❤️

Handsome boy Charlie has not had an easy time since he came into the sanctuary earlier this year. He arrived as a poorly, entire stray with cat flu symptoms, has shown signs of stress, developed skin issues, needed a dental and, sadly, had to have his tail amputated 😥😥

Despite everything he has been through, Charlie has shown us what a brave boy he is. He absolutely adores people and is such a sweet, loving boy who enjoys nothing more than human company (along with his favourite food and treats! 😅).

Although Charlie is still experiencing some ongoing skin issues, he is otherwise a healthy boy.
We are hopeful that in the right home, these issues will improve. However, his adopters will need to understand that he may experience occasional flare-ups and require treatment, and be willing to look past this and love him for the wonderful boy he is 🥹🥰

This beautiful boy has so much love to give and we know he could make an amazing companion for someone or a family
After everything he has been through, Charlie truly deserves his chance at a loving forever home 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻..trust us when we say he will repay you in kisses and washes! 😋 😽

About Charlie

If you think Charlie could be the boy for you please read more about him on our website and complete an adoption enquiry form....

🐰 Theodore 🐇

Theodore is one of our elderly rabbits. He enjoys life and likes to be left to his own devices 😄

He lives with his best friend Dora and definitely prefers her company over anyone else’s! And that’s fair enough because they are such a beautifully bonded pair who absolutely dote on one another 🥰

Theodore has recently been to see his vet, as he has arthritis in his legs and has been a little uncomfortable with one of his hind legs. He was given a thorough check-over, and the vet has advised us to increase his pain relief for now. We’ll be keeping a close eye on him and monitoring how he gets on over the coming week. ❤️

Theodore lives indoors, where he has plenty of soft, non-slip mats and towels to help keep him comfortable and make getting around a little easier.

For now, we are hoping a little extra pain relief and plenty of rest will help our lovely old boy feel more comfortable 🥰

Let’s send Theodore lots of love and positive thoughts so he knows everyone is thinking of him 🐰🧡

😻 Maggie Moo & Merlin Update! 😻

Our lovely Maggie Moo has been in foster with one of our sanctuary cat carers since she arrived in our care a few months ago at just 5–6 weeks old.

Maggie was found all alone in some bushes at Birmingham International station and we believe she was likely dumped 😥

She settled into her foster home really well and, after starting her vaccinations and getting a clean bill of health, was eventually able to socialise with the resident cats. This was something she desperately needed, as she had started showing some of the behaviours we often see in single kittens.

She soon started learning some very important cat manners and loved having other cats to play with. But it was clear she would thrive even more with a kitten her own age and with similar energy levels ❤️

When Merlin came into our care a month ago, we knew we had to introduce the two of them as Merlin really needed a friend too! 🥹 It was also perfect timing, as Merlin moving into a foster home freed up a much-needed space for two of the nine cats dumped in our car park.

Merlin was treated for his flea infestation, completed his isolation period and started his vaccinations before meeting Maggie.

It didn't take them long to hit it off, and they have formed such a lovely bond 🥰 They adore having each other for company, have perfectly matched energy levels and love playing, chasing and having a good rough and tumble together! 😅🤭

Watching Maggie grow from the tiny, vulnerable kitten who arrived in our care into the confident, cheeky girl she is today has been so special 🥹 She has been such a big part of her foster carer's life over the past few months, so we know saying goodbye will be incredibly hard.

But seeing the two of them together makes it a little easier. Maggie has found her best friend, and after seeing how much she has benefited from having Merlin to grow up alongside, we know they need to find their forever home together 🥰

Maggie and Merlin will be staying in their foster home until they find their forever family. They are due to be neutered first, but once that’s done, they will soon be looking for a loving home together 🏡

Keep an eye out for updates on when Maggie Moo and Merlin are ready to find their forever home together! 😻
