Shadow was a slightly complex boy, who we know would flourish in the right home- and that he has done! Here's an update from his family;

'Just wanted to give you an update on how great Shadow is doing. He’s really come into his personality and he has the run of a big farmhouse and plenty of land and meadows and forest to run around in. He’s a very sweet boy and affectionate.

We gave him lots of time to adjust to us and his new space, and we love him very much. He makes sure that he snuggles with us every night and sleeps with us.

Thank you so much for allowing us to rescue Shadow. We wish his foster carer and your great team many good wishes.'

Lovely boy Harry was adopted from us about 6 months ago and his new family have sent us this update, we're super pleased to see that he has bonded with Rue, we think it's safe to say they have fallen for each other 🥹💙

'Hi just wanted to give you a little update on my Harry who we adopted from the Exeter branch back in April ( ish ) after a very long, very time consuming few months of trying to get him and my little girl Rue bonded I can safely say these two are now completely inseparable and have been living free roam indoors together now for a good couple of months. He’s still quite a nervous bun but Rue has definitely brought him out of his shell and both are living their best lives and are so loved 🥰'

Boys seeking new home 🐹💙

Salt and Pepper and Capy and Bara are 2 pairs of male guinea pigs looking for new homes.

Each pair of boys have their own unique mannerisms and personalities, who we know will bring such joy to the lucky people who welcome them into their homes. Each of these pairs have established good relationships with each other and enjoy snuggling up with each other 🥹

Male pairs of guinea pigs are notoriously hard to rehome, and sadly both these pairs of boys haven't had much interest at all 💔

Older cats, who are also black unfortunately take the longest to rehome 💔

We've been sent this lovely update on Luna, who was adopted 18 months ago, thank you to her family for choosing her and giving her such a fabulous home, which she truly deserves, (ofcourse!) 💙

'I adopted a cat from you around 1.5 years ago and just thought it might be nice to provide an update. Luna is doing fantastically well. She is such a big personality and we all love her so much. She has the option to go outside but chooses to stay inside with us pretty much all of the time but on the odd occasion I see her enjoying some sun in the garden. Luna was 12 when we adopted her and she is still so playful and full of life and personality. Best thing we ever did choosing her. :)'

We recently rehomed Monte the male Guinea Pig, he's gone to live with a herd of female pigs, (he's been neutered)! He's started introductions to the girls and its all going well, which is so wonderful to hear and see! 😄💙

Thank you to his new family for choosing to adopt, and offering him such a wonderful home!

We are specifically looking for foster carers who would be happy to foster indoor rabbits and indoor guinea pigs. As the weather changes this time of year we like them to be indoors protected from the elements and enjoying some home comforts!

When you foster for us, we provide you with absolutely everything you need including accommodation, food, enrichment, behaviour advice and support as well as paying for any veterinary care needed.

You would need to have a room in your house where any resident pets cannot access the rabbits or guinea pigs. If you'd like some more information please do get in touch at [email protected]/03007771853 (option 3) between 10am-4pm daily

Alternatively you can apply here: https://volunteer.bluecross.org.uk/opportunities/117959-pet-foster-carer-devon-2026-06-16

🐾 Could you be the retirement home this lovely boy is looking for? 🐾

After our last post, we were overwhelmed with lovely applications for this gorgeous older gentleman. ❤️ Sadly, all of the homes that came forward had either children or other pets, so we’re still searching for the right match for him.

He’s a friendly, affectionate boy who loves nothing more than a lap to curl up on. He has a stress-related illness but has been doing brilliantly in his foster home.

To help him stay happy and well, he needs a calm, quiet home with no cats, dogs or children, as these can all be potential stressors for him.

He’d love a peaceful retirement home with a safe outdoor space to explore, and someone who will enjoy having this lovely boy as their companion. 🥰

Could you offer him the quiet life he deserves? ❤️
