#StormDarragh is still raging here & power out. Our resilient staff are working by torchlight. Dogs are wrapped up warm with extra coats as heating out but are safe. Shops closed & fundraising events cancelled losing much needed funds. Pls help if you can

Please retweet to help Chia find a loving home #CORK#IRELAND 💔
Chia came to us from the county dog warden services. She was secured as a stray by the warden with a severe eye injury and an injury to her head. She has mange as well. She was brought straight to the vet by the warden for emergency treatment and we are now helping her on the road to recovery and focusing on getting her a home. She is a wired haired black patterdale. She is limited with her sight as she now only has one eye. To apply for her you must have a fully enclosed garden, no cats unfortunately and a dog meet is required if you have other dogs.

Something to hide?
Last Sat, a junior member of the Puckeridge with Essex Union hunt assaulted a member of our group with a riding crop.
This video, which is now with the police, demonstrates how organised wildlife crime gangs indoctrinate young people.
As it's Friday, I'm asking all my followers to please retweet (and comment) on this post if you see it, to help my bird account be seen! 🙏😀
To make it worth sharing, here's the moment a Swallow zooms out of a hole in a shed door! 😍
Thank you very much! 😊♥️
engineer is due at 2pm. I've had a message to put my pets away for safety reasons. This isn't possible. My pets are no risk to engineer. Can you guarantee my pets are at no risk from your engineer?
I’ve felt a void in my life ever since my cat passed last year so I went and adopted the cat with the saddest eyes at the shelter. Hopefully he likes Bailey and astronomy and I can give him happy eyes 🥺
Daniel is 18 years old Sunday. A gentler soul you will never meet. He has no friends as he won’t leave home and can’t work. Autism does that to you. Please wish him a happy birthday and RT everywhere . ❤️#happybirthdaydaniel
‼️Breaking News: Sir Brian May Resigns as Vice-President of the RSPCA
We’ve just learned that Sir Brian May is stepping down as Vice President of the RSPCA. Stating:
"...as more and more damning evidence comes to light, I find the RSPCA's response completely inadequate..." he continued, "...I feel the only acceptable policy would have been the complete dismantling of the scheme. Instead, the RSPCA have tried to defend their position, and in doing so, in my view, have sacrificed their integrity."
This couldn’t have been an easy decision. It takes incredible courage and conviction to stand up for animals, especially when you’ve witnessed the potential of an organisation like the RSPCA. Brian's hope for the RSPCA to return to its core mission of protecting all animals is one we all share and exactly why we are taking action. Thank you, Brian, for this powerful reminder that staying true to your values is what brings about real change. This will go down in history. 💚
Humans f**k up the planet & #elephants must die. A highly sentient creature reduced a handy source of protein. This is a poor article but you'll get the drift...

67 years ago, Laika was launched into space.
Laika, ′′Little Barker" but her real name was Kudrjavka, Russian for ′′curly." She was captured on the street, in Moscow.
Half Husky and half Terrier, she was around 3 years old at the time. She was chosen because she was calm, docile and perfectly adaptable to the Sputnik 2 capsule. Equipped for life support (food and water), the mission didn't involve return. For Laika, it was a death sentence.
The interior of the satellite was lined and the interior space was wide enough to allow Laika to lie or stand. The internal temperature was set to 15. and a refrigeration system had to protect the animal from excessive thermal surges.
On November 3rd at 2 AM, Sputnik 2 was launched into space. Laika probably survived for seven hours.
But some sources claim that agony was much longer: four days.
Alone, in space.
The satellite returned to atmosphere 5 months later, April 14, 1958, after turning 2.570 laps around Earth.
It disintegrated upon return to the atmosphere.
Every year, before Fall, I feel compelled to tell this story and possibly do it with new words. There's a deep guilt that all of us should feel reading what we did to Laika. Human progress has often been achieved at the expense of animals that had nothing to do with our desire for supremacy.
Many people believe this was an acceptable price for our conquests, but it seems obvious, even reading this story, that was really just a trivial form of prevarication.
We had a duty to choose another path.
We still have that duty today.
Sorry humanity has failed you, Laika 💔
