A SPOOK-TACULAR HAPPY ENDING FOR BELLA & COOKIE! 🧡🏡 🐴

We’re delighted to share that the lovely Bella and her adorable foal Cookie have trotted off to their wonderful new forever home! 🥰🐾

Bella and Cookie came to Oak Tree following a change in circumstances, and it has been an absolute pleasure caring for this gorgeous duo 💕

Bella has been such a sweet and gentle girl, while little Cookie has certainly kept our Animal Care Team on their toes with his cheeky personality and mischievous adventures! 🤭🐴

The pair have now gone off to start the next chapter of their lives, where they’ll have two new pony friends to share their adventures with! We can’t wait to see how little Cookie grows and flourishes 🥹

A huge THANK YOU to their wonderful adopters for opening their hearts and home to Bella and Cookie. We’re so grateful to have played a part in finding them their happy ending! 🏡

We hope these two enjoy plenty of yummy treats and a fangtastic first Halloween weekend in their new home! 🎃🍎🧡

Happy trails, Bella and Cookie! You’ll be missed! 🐴

There’s something bewitching about our lovely Thelma, and we’re hoping she’ll cast a spell on someone special this Halloween! 🧙‍♀️🧡

This sweet little lady arrived at Oak Tree as a stray and has been slowly finding her paws. Although she can be a little shy at first, Thelma is growing braver by the day! She’s now coming over to greet us more often, exploring her surroundings and showing off her playful personality🐱

With a love for tasty food and her favourite toys, Thelma just needs a little patience, kindness and a cosy place to call her own.

🎃🐾 Happy from Jack👅

It’s pumpkin picking season, but we think we’ve found the pick of the patch… JACK! 🧡

Our handsome 8-year-old Jack is hoping someone will pick HIM this autumn and give him the forever home he’s been dreaming of! 🍂

Jack is a lovely gentleman who enjoys meeting new people, tasty treats and showing off his playful side once he gets to know you!

He’s looking for a patient, adult-only home where he can be the only pet, with someone happy to give him the time and space to settle in and blossom 🐶

🎃 Could Jack be your perfect pumpkin this October?

We’ve got some adorable little bundles of fluff searching for their forever homes here at Oak Tree 🧡

Our playful kittens are ready to fill their new homes with plenty of mischief, cuddles and endless entertainment!

🏡 Ideally, we’d love to see our kittens rehomed in pairs, so they can grow up together, keep each other company and have a lifelong partner in crime! After all, two kittens means twice the purrs, twice the fun and twice the love! 🥰

Could you make room in your heart and home for two little furry friends?

Count Rogula is searching for a fang-tastic forever home this October! 🎃🐈‍⬛

Roger is 3 years old and hoping someone will give him a chance to work his magic! 🪄
