5 R’s – Rescue – Rehabilitation – Rehoming – Release – Retirement
Rescue Where system starts with rescue of animals in distress or need of rehoming through abandonment, neglect, abused or inexperienced owners or owners who are ill or in a financial crisis which prevents them from caring for animal/s to a satisfactory level.
Some animals are knowing neglected or abused but some have been unknowingly neglected through ignorance and wrong advice of the owner.
Rehabilitation Animals taken into our care are put into 28 day isolation .
They are given a basic health / behavioural assessment and if no serious issues they are allowed to settle in to new environment with basic daily care. They are given a more intensive health / behavioural assessment and a rehabilitation programme designed to work on any health or behavioural issues that we have been Informed of or we found during the assessment.
The minimum rehabilitation is 28 days if animal has no health or behavioural issues. To ensure animal is clear of any infectious disease which may not be fully visible on arrival or which may become apparent through stress.
Rehabilitation can be several months or may be ongoing process which animal may never fully recover to full health.
Rehome We try to rehome animals when they been assessed, rehabilitated to ensure we have space to take in more animals.
Potential New homes are checked to ensure new owner has the experience and facilities to properly care for the animals on a longterm basis.
Animals are rehomed on a loan agreement so if ever animal cannot be cared for to a satisfactory standard then animals can be returned to the charity.
Release of Wildlife is the aim for wildlife so they can live life in the wild if at all possible.
Retirement of animals at the centre is an option if needed for the animals health.
