One of the charities we support is West Oxford Animal Rescue, we give them all the food they need for all the cats and dogs they look after. This has meant that they have been able to focus their funds on some of their more 'special' animals who are in need of veterinary attention. Gabby and Ticky for example are kittens, they arrived at the rescue after falling from a balcony and were in a terrible state. Gabby seemed to have ruptured one eye and Ticky wasnt responding to anything so was thought he had suffered brain damage. After surgery Gabby regained sight in both eyes and tests showed that Ticky was at least 80% deaf which was why he wasnt responding. With the fantastic help of all the volunteers he is learning to cope with his disability and is learning to trust humans again. However the Rescues vets bills are never ending and the more money they can raise the more veterinary care thye can afford. We have been speaking to Julie who runs the rescue about otherways to rasie money and Julie would like to design and sell Christmas cards and calendars from November. We have tried to find printers and designers who can help Julie but we are struggling, is there anyone out there who can help this rescue, it would make such a difference??? If you could help in anyway could you contact Julie at julie.woar@hotmail.com or call 01865 873324. Many thanks
Raffy was very pleased with herself as she appeared in a 3 page article in the Independents Saturday magazine last week, she is still going through all your emails asking about whats it like being the CEO of an organic petfood company surrounded by food! However right now shes taking a nap under my desk obviously building up her strenght for her walk at lunchtime!
Have a lovely weekend, fingers crossed we get some decent walking weather as getting wet all the time isnt so much fun, British summers eh!
