Loki and Noodles helping with the weeding this morning 😍. Loki is a big boy and when he stands up he’s 7-8 feet tall, those spindly legs are stronger than they look 😆!

Here’s Mocha doing a good impression of a rabbit with no ears 😆😱.
And to reassure you, another to prove they’re still on her head !

It won’t be too long before the rescue bunnies can be paired and bonded and we will be looking for loving homes for them 😊💛💛🐰.

Mary and Dotty 🐷 would like to demonstrate a way to keep safe today 🥵 ☀️ … feet in cold water and plenty of sunscreen .

We’re not sure what Sun Protection Factor mud has , but it works a treat 😁.

Keeping cool 😎 in these temperatures is even more tricky if you’re covered in feathers or fur 🥵.

Kips Travels 💕

Last weekend at the sanctuary we found this beautiful soft toy who reminded us very much of our beloved boy Kip 🐷.

As a tribute to the big old softy himself, we decided to send ‘spirit of Kip’ on holiday to Cornwall with some volunteers.

I’m afraid he got led astray somewhat by the humans, gambling on the scratch cards and drinking lager 🙄 😆, but more wholesome fun was to be had on the beach 🏖️, rock-pooling and digging in the sand 😊😍.

Kip, in life and in spirit enjoyed every moment ❤️.

Caption this 😆! Luna the Turkey and Debbie the Chicken are both broody and want the same nest box 💙.

They’ve decided to share, co-parent , or maybe Luna thinks Debbie is a turkey chick 🐥! Either way it’s very sweet and we love the partnership 😊.

We wanted to say a huge Thank You to two of our amazing volunteers Gina and Martha ! 😍.

Gina ran the London Marathon and raised funds both for us and also separately for Coffee4Craig, a homelessness charity, what a superhero !

Martha had a cake sale at work and raised over £200 ! The awesome power of cake 🍰!

A massive thank you to everyone who sponsored, supported , donated and ate cake 🎂 on our behalf, the funds raised go directly to animal care.

We have been specifically fundraising for vets bills for the rescue bunnies 🐰 , this week should see them all now neutered and in a few weeks we should be bonding them into pairs ready to rehome ☺️

A massive Thank You 🙏 today to the team from Swindon The Openwork Partnership who joined us for a corporate volunteer day .

It was a super hot day 🌞 and the team really did some amazing work in the paddocks repairing fences, putting in post and rail, clearing paddocks of nettles, moving pig 🐷 houses , collecting donations from Sainsbury’s, cleaning pens and generally being all round troopers !

The goats gave some cuddles as a thank you, and the pigs offered a bottom for a scratch 😆.

We really appreciate your support theopenworkpartnership and it was a pleasure to host!
