More animals found homes

Already this month, April, we have rehomed 7 rabbits, several dogs including Diesel as well as Darcy, Dollar, Billy, Isla and Holly and Charley and Dinky as well as several cats, including Bella and Jasmin. The long staying members have now found new homes making way for some new arrivals.

New Homes Found

Great news from the kennels ; Two dogs, Charlie and Dinky have found new homes. Dinky was brought in and reserved the same day by some people who were looking around the kennels, lucky Dinky! Two cats, Bella and Jasmin, have also found new homes!!! This will free up some space at the kennels which is already badly needed by the Inspectors who have animals waiting to come in to our care.
Also Diesel, our long term resident and elderly Jack Russell has now found a new home so he can spend his retirement happily with two companion Jack Russell's

It is on Friday 10th May between 11.00am and 1.30pm

Although Microchipping is free we ask for a donation to help cover costs.

Past events have proved popular. We hope to hold them regularly and hope to have a similar event in Leek in June.

It does not make pleasant reading.

Safe Haven

We have now re launched the Branch Safe Haven Scheme

By sponsoring one of our designated animal spaces for £3, £5, or more if you choose to, per month you can help give animals a second chance.

We have designated dog and cat spaces available for sponsorship. This will provide a safe environment for abused, abandoned or mistreated animals. With Safe Haven you won’t be helping just one animal, you’ll be sponsoring the lives of all who pass through our kennels every year.

Your sponsorship will go towards the animals care, rehabilitation and medical treatment.  While they are in our care we give them a safe haven - we will make sure that they feel loved and secure by caring for their physical needs as well as giving them  regular exercise and company.

Just pick either a dog kennel or cat pen

A sponsorship form can be downloaded from http://www.rspcanorthstaffs.co.uk/safehaven.html

Dimmingsdale Walk

Sadly we have had to postpone Sundays walk because of the weather. There is a lot of snow and the going would be heavy. Having gone for a walk today I encountered drifts of up to six feet though most were between knee and waist deep so it would not be much fun.
The new date is Sunday, 12th May so hopefullyu will see you then.
