Sponsor Us
Sponsor an animal group, our welfare van or help enrich our animals lives and mental health. Our sanctuary and animals are unique, please help support them.
Mental Health and Enrichment
Mental health is as important to animals as it is to humans. Help us reduce the stress and trauma the arriving animals have experienced. Help us to enrich their lives from just £10 a month. Your kind sponsorship will help nineteen different animal species including cats, dogs, rabbits and livestock.
Sunnyside Cat Unit
This is the largest of our resident elderly cat units and overlooks the memorial garden. There are armchairs, pods and shelves at different levels so that the cats can find the spot they are happiest with! At the moment it houses six cats who are either elderly, on long term medication or have special needs. The cats have access to the outside during the day and are tucked up safe and sound at night.
Cosy Cats
This unit is down the steps from the Sunnyside Residents. It is a small room that currently houses four of our cats who can roam the sanctuary during the day and are safely tucked up at night.
The Snug
The Snug is a room located under the reception area and houses some of our older cats that have special needs. The Snug group has access to the shelter grounds at night and during the day they have this cosy room to enjoy which has a run attached. It can house anything from 3-5 cats at any one time. Many of these cats have toilet issues that prevent them from being rehoused.
Dunroamin
Dunroamin consists of three dog kennels, which are homes from home. The rooms are larger than the rehoming kennels, each with an armchair or sofa, extra heating and an outside dog run which leads onto a yard that the dogs share.
This unit is used for elderly dogs or those more likely to be with us longer whilst waiting for their home.
Hill Billies
The sanctuary cares for two goats, Jean-Paul and Wee Man. They are a very adventurous group who get up to lots of mischiefs whenever they can.
The Mews
The Mews is home to Delen, Louis and Guinness. They are wonderful characters, much loved and fun to have around.
They prefer a more outdoors life so this pen is great for them as it has an outside run that they can have access to 24 hours a day.
Pigs Paradise
Our two newest members are Miss Waggs and Sandy who arrived in October 2021 because their owner was unabe to care for them anymore. Miss Waggs is extremely friendly and was named Miss Waggs because her tail does not stop moving. Sandy is more shy in character but likes to follow Miss Waggs around.
Horsey Haven
Three Dartmoor Ponies reside at the sanctuary and two Shetlands. The Dartmoor Ponies were rescued by their owners, but then their circumstances changed and they were unable to keep them.
