Can i just ask, why does it matter if they aren`t a charity? I have worked with many rescues, some charities and some not and i know what goes into registering as a charity and i wouldn`t do it if i could help it!

Nobody works harder for animal welfare than my bosses, but they aren't a registered charity. They were told that they couldn't be a registered charity as my bosses own the land on which the wildlife centre is based.

no i simply wasn't meaning that because they are unregistered they should be supported but they have previously lied to the public for money,, the boy who cried wolf?? x

I did wonder about that Shell, because I thought your friend lived on your sanctuary's premises which I thought meant she probably owned the land. I just know that was what Kim was told - she was advised to go for "not for profit" because they owned the land. *shrug*

Maybe they have changed their policies as we have only been up and running for 4/5 years

Just seen this:

Please note that we never spoke to the daily mail or ANY of the tabloids.
NONE of our animals were going to be destroyed... we rescue NOT kill.

All the cats that are ready for rehoming have been allocated and homes are ready and waiting for our little ones when they are ready too.

I appologise for people not being able to get through on the phone but we have been experiencing high call volumes.

You can also message Claire Hardwicke directly on Facebook.

I hope this helps

They say is a lie.

But whos telling the truth i don't know, Dog's Trust say they never put a healthy dog down, well i visited them and put them on the spot, after many questions they did indeed break and say sometimes they do put them down due to behavioural problems, aggression and depending how long the dogs been there!
