We have all experienced the high temperatures of summer 2025. For those who love the heat, it’s been glorious. Many though, have struggled.
The heat and lack of water have been devastating. For wild animals, there has been dehydration and malnutrition to try to cope with. Many populations
have either been weakened or, in many cases have simply not been able to cope.
For pets and small animal charities there have been different issues. The UK economic challenges have resulted in pets being abandoned, animal rescue
centres are overwhelmed and a lack of funds to support the simplest of tasks. The Year of Small Animal Charities 2025 is our year of small animal charities.
We’ve started well but need to continue supporting even more small charities. Legacy bequests make a huge difference – but so do regular amounts both large and small.
These donations help us plan and commit support to the rescue centres meaning they know they have a future.
