Hamlet suffered an agonising broken jaw and severe body-wide bruising when he was hit by a car in London. Kind witnesses to the collision spent more than an hour trying to catch the terrified boy, who was fleeing and hiding despite being in unimaginable pain. Exhausted and struggling to move, they eventually managed to scoop Hamlet up and bring him to our animal hospital. Our vets performed an operation to wire his jaw back in place, while broken teeth and bone were removed, and a feeding tube was fitted, as he was unable to eat. The odds were stacked against Hamlet, but we saw glimmers of improvement each day, and he was placed in foster care so that he could recover in the comfort of a warm and loving home environment. Because of your donations, we could give Hamlet round-the-clock care from our expert team. Not only is he no longer in pain, and can now eat on his own, but he is now in the arms of a loving family. We know how difficult January can be, but if you can donate, you can help us give more pets like Hamlet a second chance: https://lnkd.in/eMAYNB-S #BlueCross #Pets #Donate

Having been with his family as a much-loved pet since a puppy, when a baby came along, Wesley's behaviour changed and over time he became increasingly worried. Despite trying their best to work on this, after a few grabbing incidents with the toddler and another baby on the way, his family made the difficult decision that he would be happier elsewhere and brought him to us. ❤ We often get asked why we don't rehome particular dogs with children and Wesley's story explains this well. The team knew it was imperative that he was rehomed to a home without young children where he could live life to the fullest. And after a short stay with us, he won the hearts of a lovely, older couple where he's enjoying the run of the house and garden. #BlueCross #AdoptDontShop #Rescue #RescuesOfInstagram #RescueDog #DogsOfInsta #DogsOfInstagram #Dogstagram #DogLover

Terrified and undernourished, three puppies were desperately searching for food when they found themselves in our care. It was obvious that the siblings had seen and experienced very little of the world, given how shutdown they were and the fear they displayed when encountering many everyday sights and sounds. The team knew they had a real job on their hands. As well as building their physical strength, the team had to start training and socialisation from scratch. But thanks to the emergency resources available, they were able to help the pups come out of their shells and learn to trust. Without your donations, this wouldn’t be possible.

Found freezing, limp and lifeless inside a carrier by a kind passerby, by the time she came through our hospital doors, the team feared this poor cat was already dead - until she let out a tiny cry for help. Named Finsbury after the London park she was found in on a cold and wet day, she was hanging onto life by a thread. Rushed into intensive care, she had collapsed and tests confirmed she was critically ill with hypothermia and a respiratory infection. She was also covered in fleas that had left her with fur loss and scabs all over her body. To give her a fighting chance of survival, she was given much needed warmth and medication and miraculously, she began to recover. Once stable enough, she was transferred to a foster home where she enjoyed lapping up all of the attention. Now thriving in a loving home, her previous trauma is thankfully a distant memory. Just look at her journey! Finsbury made it to us in the nick of time, and thanks to the emergency care available, we were able to save her life. Without your donations, this wouldn't be possible. Donate today to give a life saving Emergency Care Box that could change a pet like Finsbury's story forever. ❤️ Find out more about giving vital emergency care this Christmas 👉 https://bit.ly/4eXe7QO
