Starving. Neglected. On the brink of death.

Floss was close to death when we rescued her - starving, dehydrated, and living in filthy surroundings. She had been severely neglected for weeks and was gravely underweight. Our inspector recalls, “It was heartbreaking to see”. The awful state we found Floss in, with visible ribs and spine, reflected the terrible suffering she’d endured.

We rushed Floss to the vet for life-saving treatment, and thankfully, she made a full recovery. “Had it not been for our help, Floss would have died”. Right now, more suffering animals still need our urgent help before it's too late.

Please help rescue more animals like Floss with a monthly gift of £3.

Scared, starving, suffering

Jack and Poppy’s visible ribs and bleeding skin reflected the terrible suffering they’d endured for months. Our Inspector recalls they “were in a tragic state and one of the saddest sights I’d seen”. They were found in filthy conditions, with no food or water, huddled together. Our animal rescuers carried the puppies as they were unable to walk.

Our expert vets provided the urgent treatment these puppies desperately needed, and thankfully they made a full recovery. But this Winter, many more animals urgently need our help.

Please help rescue more suffering animals like Jack and Poppy. Please donate £3 a month.
