Today the lives of these four little kittens chang Today the lives of these four little kittens changed for the better ❤️ Imagine being six weeks old and being dumped in a bin bag wondering what was going to happen.😭 Thankfully, a kind member of the public found them and handed them to the team Medivet in Carterton. 🥰 It is safe to say that they have been traumatised by recent events and they are now safely with one of our dedicated foster carers who are working hard to gain their trust. ❤️ Sadly, this case is becoming more and more common. We are receiving daily calls asking for help from people who have found litters of kittens. 😩 This needs to stop and we need people to neuter their cats. Rescue centres like ours are full and with lengthy waiting lists. People are breeding them faster than we can save them. 😭 Please spread the word to friends and family and urge those with unneutered animals to get them neutered!! If you would like to support the work we do, please click on the links below: One-off donations: https://oxfordshireanimalsanctuary.org.uk/donate/single/ Become a monthly donor: https://oxfordshireanimalsanctuary.org.uk/donate/ Alternatively, if you would like to donate via our Facebook page, please click on the donate button below! Without your support, we would be here for animals like these four kittens. 🙏 #oascharity #thankyou #helpyourlocalrescue #donations #supportingthesanctuary #thankyouforyoursupport #giftsfortheanimals #wehavethebestsupporters #thankyouforyourgenerosity #catsruletheworld #welovecatsandkittens #cattitude #catsofinstagram #rescuecatsofinstagram❤️ #catslover #welovecatsmorethanhumans #catsoffacebook #rescuecatsofinstagram #welovecats #catsruledogsdrool #rescuecatsarethebest #rescuecatsrock #rescuecatsrule #fortheloveofcats😻 #fortheloveofcatsrescue #pleaseshare
Please meet 14-year-old Kora ❤️ Kora arrived Please meet 14-year-old Kora ❤️ Kora arrived at the sanctuary after her human companion was no longer able to care for her. 😢 She has found the process a little stressful but it’s been lovely to see her personality grow. 🥰 She’s great in so many ways. Whilst she may come across as a little shy at first, once she has made that bond with you, it’s at that point that you see her adorable nature. 💖 A recent blood test showed that Kora has Hyperthyroidism which is currently being treated with medication. 💊 Once stable she may be a candidate for a thyroidectomy. This is a pre-diagnosed condition so it will not be covered by insurance.

🐶🏡 Dogs as Possessions vs. Dogs as Companion 🐶🏡 Dogs as Possessions vs. Dogs as Companions: Which Do You Choose? Let's be honest, we probably all know people in both camps. On one side, there are those who treat dogs like possessions, just something to own and control. But on the other side, there are people who truly understand that dogs are so much more than that. They're incredible beings capable of forming deep emotional connections with us. In this article, we want to shed light on the negative consequences of seeing dogs as mere possessions. We want to show how much better life can be for both humans and dogs when we treat them as true family members or even our best buddies. 🐾 When we take the time to understand their needs, form those meaningful bonds, and appreciate the emotional depth they bring to our lives, it's like a whole new level of joy and happiness opens up. It's truly a beautiful thing to experience together. Check out the article below and leave us a comment or reaction letting us know which type of dog lover you are! https://oxfordshireanimalsanctuary.org.uk/dogs-as-companions-not-possessions/ 🐶💕 #DogsAsCompanions #UnconditionalLove
