Angus has left the building!!

Angus came in at 335g and very poorly 🤒 He has been a little tinker and any opportunity to escape he would try!!!

He has gone home back to Katrine Mitchell to be spoilt!

Release weight 1154g but as you can see he can curl beautifully 🦔💙

Stay safe big boy x

Beautiful Nieve and handsome Anthony have left the building!!!! Woohoo!!🎉

Nieve came in November weighing 219g, ringworm, covered in ticks and one of the worst flea infestation I have seen!! Once she had finished her treatment for lungworm and roundworm eggs she went off to Dawn for some lovely spa treatment and a sleep! Nieve now 1131g!

Anthony came in in April weighing 360g found out in the day, positive for lungworm, fluke and roundworm eggs. Anthony now 1133g!

They have both gone off together in an amazing garden with 2 lovely houses and support fed.

Stay safe both of you and fingers crossed for babies 🤞🏻🦔🦔🦔❤️💙

Naughty Angus 🦔💙!

He’s part way through his treatment for Lungworm, Capillaria and Fluke!

He likes to think it’s a great game whilst his 5* accommodation is refreshed to try and escape!! Large tall holding box required 🤣

Not too long now gorgeous boy 🦔💙 and you can go back to Katrine Mitchell to cause mayhem with the ladies 🦔🦔🦔!

It's not easy to spot nesting in long grass & vegetation - so this , pledge to always check carefully before mowing or strimming!
