PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE GETTING IN TOUCH!!!

Meet Cookie!!

She and her son Lucky are looking for their forever home together aged 5 and 4.

This pair are really beginning to come out of their shell. They arrived very scared, but, despite this, they have never shown one bit of aggression towards anyone.

They do seem to enjoy each others company and, although they may take some time to properly settle and be comfortable in their new home, they will eventually be very affectionate cats.

These two are on the heavier side, and because of this, someone who is dedicated to their weight loss journey and some active play times is a must.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU CAN GIVE THEM EXACTLY WHAT THEY NEED BEFORE GETTING IN TOUCH!

We’d like to introduce you all to Cole!
A very sleepy version of him 🥰.

Cole was a resident at the shelter around a year ago and it very quickly became obvious that he would love the working dog life.

Well….. we are very happy to say that, as of last week, Cole has passed all of his assessments and is now a fully fledged drug detection dog!!!! 🥳🥳🥳

We’re so happy for him and everyone who contributed and continues to contribute to his training!

We wish you the best life Cole!!!!! 🫶

Storm would like to help in thanking The Schooner for having raised a fabulous £411.63 at their dog show which was held on bank holiday Monday!

Thank you so much for thinking of the shelter when organising this event, it all goes towards helping dogs and cats in similar situations to Storm to find their forever homes.

This money will be incredibly useful towards our community ver increasing vet bills.

Thank you again!
