Meet Daffy 🐑💫
14 years young and currently living her best senior life.
Twice-weekly laser therapy for her arthritis, and honestly? I think she enjoys it.
She’s a perfect patient every time… especially because she knows there’s a little treat waiting at the end 💕

Buster used to be my bestie!
Then I rescued Timmy…
Now I’m just the third wheel watching a pigeon love story unfold.
Worth it though—they are now totally inseparable 🐦🐦✨

Good morning from Dottie 🩷

Five years ago, Dottie arrived at the sanctuary with her best friend Gina.
They were known as escape artists — jumping a 5-bar gate with ease — and for that, the farmer earmarked them for slaughter.
We stepped in, offering them safety, friendship, and a forever home.

Today, Dottie is safe, loved, and home for life. This is why sanctuaries matter. 💛

Meet Potato & Nugget 🥔🐹

Our newest little roommates, rehomed from a lovely family and already making themselves very at home. Since arriving on Friday, they’ve been busy redecorating their tank, digging an impressive burrow system, and being endlessly sweet (and hilarious) to watch. We’re so glad to have you, tiny friends 💛

Meet Hector. He's the newest edition to the gang. He was brought into a local veterinary practice to be euthanized, as his owner could no longer keep him. Thankfully, that didn't happen. He's not even 2 years old and is such a gentle giant. Once he's been quarantined, he will hopefully be bonded to our resident buns ❤️

Today, we said goodbye to one of our disabled jackdaws who has gone to an amazing new home with another jackdaw friend called Odin.

He was found slumped on the ground, stone cold and close to death in a woodland copse at the edge of our paddock.
He had a badly infected eye, was emaciated, and was very dehydrated. It took a couple of days to stabilise him, and then slowly, day by day, he got stronger. It was evident after a week or so that he had lost his eye and would never be released back into the wild.

He has such a lovely temperament, and we are confident he'll have a wonderful life in one of the most fantastic aviaries I've seen!

Good luck, little buddy, we'll miss you!

Err, I think you've got something on your face there, Frank?

This is Tiny. She came to us back in September from another rescue after developing a bad prolapse. After two weeks of persistence, a lot of haemorrhoid cream, anti inflammatories, pain killer and an implant we finally got it back in. She has now joined our little flock ❤️.

The last chick (hopefully) of the season is almost ready to go out into the woodie aviary where he'll be wilded up, before his release in the spring. ❤️
