Resident Animals

Meet the stunning Robbie!  He moved into Animals In Need in Sepember 2013.

Wilber was abandoned at the kennels when he was a little piglet.  He has a lovely piggy palace and enjoys to wallow.  His favourite treats include melon, pumpkin and of course the occasional cake!

Gertrude & Freda are the senior members of our tortoise colony, they have been joined by the youngsters Alan & Alice.

These dogs were rescued from almost certain death in Romania. They are all still very nervous of people and so it has been decided that they will stay in our care indefinitely.

Sherman is a 16  year old Sulcatta tortoise, and joined us at the request of his family as he needed more space to roam.

These cheeky girls were rescued from the dairy industry and moved into Animals In Need in March 2019 at just a few days old.

George is a huge character in a tiny body!  This cheeky chap is very popular with staff and visitors and is always first in the queue when treats are on offer.

We currently have 19 sheep in our care – some were cade lambs and other rescued as adults that had fallen in rivers or been trapped in mud.  They all have names and individual personalities.

These gorgeous characters arrived in August 2021 and will be permanent residents.

This handsome lad arrived in August 2021 and will be a permanent resident alongside Penny & Petal.

Mindy is a cheeky character, who loves her food, especially pumpkins!  She likes a fuss which makes her popular with visitors.

Hatton is a handsome 3 yr old AMB. He loves the kennel ladies but is wary of strangers. His favourite thing to do is chase tennis balls.

Don’t be fooled by Chester’s tiny stature, he has a huge character!  He gets on great with the other ponies and loves the attention he gets from visitors.

Wesley is the most recent addition to our pony family.  He is young and mischievous and keeps his carers on their toys!
