Offer help, advice, rescue and re-homing for Guinea Pigs
Operate Nationwide
 
For the last 10 years we have been re-homing for the Police, Government departments and other NGO's. As a non-profit, self funded voluntary organisation we give up our spare time to ensure the welfare & assist in the re-homing of non-domesticated non-native wild animals which have been abandoned, confiscated, surrendered to rescue centres or the authorities, or become surplus within Zoos, colleges or other educational institutions. Our main aim is to ensure that the animals in our care receive the best homes, with the highest standard of care that we can find. We can even accept specimens via donation, where the current owner may not have the correct license. Our only concern is the welfare of the animal. To date we have never been forced to euthanase any healthy animals that we have accepted for re-homing, we aim to maintain that record!

Over the Years I have taken in many different Mediteranean tortoise that needs either rehabilitating through poor care in a previous home or through owners that were just too old to care for their shelled friend any longer. I keep Hermann's my self and I am always able to add females to the group easily but boys are always a little more troublesome......but that does not mean that we wouldn't be able to find him a forever loving home with another family! All will be done to either put you in contact with the right information for you...or to give your shelled companion the love and care you know they deserve, so please get in contact if you either need advice or a new home for your companion. All my tortoise have the neccessary home that they deserve and are outside in the garden for at least 12 hours a day and then brought into secure area at night time for security. All fed on a weed,plant and flower diet with the correct supplementation of nutrobal,limestone flour and cuttle fish bone.All hibenated every year. We have one of the best vets in the country here in Leeds too in Holly House vets, they specialize in tortoise care, and are only a few minutes drive away should the need ever arrive. All of our tortoise are treated like one of the family and we will do everything in our power to make sure they get the best care possible.
