Yesterday morning, our incredible Vijay Kritzinger set off from Exmouth to begin her challenge for the animals of Nowzad. It was a truly special start! ❤️ To ensure she had the best possible send-off, Pen and the Nowzad team headed down to join her for those first few miles. Mind you, with a 7:00 am meeting time, Pen might still be wondering where those extra hours of sleep went! Pen Farthing and David Hill brought Ewok Nowzad to see Vijay off at Exmouth, where they picked up the supplies that

A little task for you all this bright and breezy Monday morning... 😊 This gentle donkey arrived at our hospital a couple of months ago, carrying with him so much pain. He was suffering from a dislocated shoulder in his right front leg — an injury typically resulting from extreme overwork or a sudden, violent trauma. For an animal whose life depends on mobility, every step he took before arriving at Nowzad was a struggle. After his rescue, he was immediately placed under full supervision. With

So far in 2026, we have successfully sterilised and neutered an incredible 192 cats already! That’s 192 lives improved, countless kittens prevented from a life of hardship (we’ve done the maths and that’s appro

🐾 Huge thanks to everyone who has already donated to the Ambo Project! The supplies we’re collecting will equip our ambulance heading to Ukraine, where it will serve as a mobile veterinary unit for critical vaccination, neutering, and return operations. By bringing care directly to the field, we’re overcoming logistical challenges to help dogs and cats when they need it most. 🚚 We are continuing to collect donations of surgical essentials, diagnostic tools, wound care supplies, and more from

The mystery resident revealed...Meet Ramy! ❤️ We’ve had so many of you reaching out after our Afghan appeal last week (thank you to all so, so much again!), asking about the little dog you spotted in our updates. There was a very special new face in the hospital, and it’s time our Roving Ambassador, Fury, officially introduced his new neighbour! This gentle boy was found by our team while we were out rescuing dogs for World Spay Day in February. He was in an absolutely heart-breaking state, st
