Work on the new hospital building is going well. The recent snow and ice has slowed it down a bit and the builders will break for christmas now and return in early January.

We are still hoping to be finished and moved in by March but finances are tight and more money is urgently needed to fit out the hospital  and provide the facilities we so desperately need

You can see pictures of the work as it progresses  in  our Gallery

We welcome enquiries from suitable prospective owners who should ring the Hospital on 01375 893893

We are a wildlife rescue and rehabilitation charity, we do from time to time get asked to provide care and attention and seek new homes for exotic species like these. We do not approve of any exotic species being sold from a pet shop or animal dealer because they are frequently sold to unsuitable owners who get fed up with them, don’t realise the hard work and cost involved in keeping an exotic pet so either dump it or ask us or RSPCA to rehome it.
