Shada can barely move
A lifetime of backbreaking work with no hope of retirement. That’s the heart-breaking reality for most working animals in the countries where Together for Animals member SPANA operates. Many won’t make it to older age. Of those that do, almost all will experience excruciatingly painful, stiff and swollen joints. Agonising arthritis causes their bodies to […]

When an unsuspecting member of the public returned home one evening early in 2019, the last thing she expected to see on her doorstep was an abandoned cat and her five month-old kitten. Later named Linda and Stella, the pair were huddled together in obvious distress, and had been alone for at least a day, […]
Read MoreTrevor: Homeless at Christmas
Thanks to our supporters hundreds of animals are spending this Christmas with loving families in their furever homes. Sadly, this isn’t the case for all.

Vincent arrived in a cardboard box. It was the same box he’d been discovered sitting in, at the exit to a car park, an hour or so earlier. The ball of fluff should have been a pristine white, but he was mucky and sad. He had been left all alone with a soiled blanket, a […]

Here is one of […]
Read More10 years improving dogs’ lives
17 June 2019 marked ten years since the Kennel Club and Together for Animals member Animal Health Trust formally agreed to work together to improve the lives of dogs.

Every year Together for Animals member World Horse Welfare celebrates the joy that rehoming a horse brings with their Rehomed Horse of the Year competition.
