Can you be a fosterer or a transporter?

18/10/2024

Can you help us? 

Since June, GAAS has been unable to take any new cats except for emergencies. This is heartbreaking - but we simply don’t have the space. What GAAS needs, more than anything else, is volunteer fosterers who are prepared to take cats into their home while they wait to be adopted.

You don’t need much space. A flat is absolutely fine. The only exception is if you have cats of your own, in which case the foster needs to be kept separately. 

You don’t need experience. GAAS provides full support.

You don’t need to be able to afford a pet. GAAS will cover everything.

You do need to live within reach of either the Brentford, Chiswick, Ealing or Hounslow branch of Young’s Vets, and it helps a lot if you can drive, though it’s not essential.

You do need love, and patience, and to always remember that each cat is only temporary - but there’s always another one waiting! 

 I fostered nine cats over two years for GAAS before adopting my final foster, and the one question everyone asked was ‘How can you give them up?’ The answer is that it’s never easy, but always worth it. I still get regular updates on most of my ex-fosters & it’s wonderful to see pictures of them happy in their forever homes.

Imagine a scared cat arriving, watching you from a hiding place and finally deciding that they might be able to let you stroke them… and from there enjoying the first comfortable home and human affection they’ve ever known, learning to trust people and becoming ready for adoption. Could you do that for our cats? 

We’re also in desperate need of transporters - people who can drive cats to vet appointments or to foster homes, and who can pick up donations. This is completely at your own convenience, and it’s an enormous help.

Late last night, our rescue team discovered a heart-breaking scene—four tiny, newborn kittens huddled next to their dead mother. These fragile little lives are now in desperate need of immediate care and support to survive.

Without their mother's nourishment and warmth, these kittens face an uphill battle. They need round-the-clock feeding, medical attention, and a safe, nurturing environment to grow and thrive. We are committed to giving them the best chance at life, but we can't do it alone.

How You Can Help

We urgently need to raise funds to cover the cost of their care. This includes purchasing specialized formula, medical supplies, and ensuring they receive the constant attention they need during these critical first weeks.

Donate: Please consider making a donation to support these vulnerable kittens. Every pound counts and will go directly towards their care.
You can contribute by bank transfer to HSBC account number 52248573, sort code 40-25-02, or using the Paypal link on our Donating page.

Share Their Story: Help us spread the word by sharing this appeal with your friends, family, and social media networks. The more people who know about their situation, the greater our chances of raising the necessary funds.

Your generosity will provide these kittens with a fighting chance. Together, we can turn their tragic start into a story of hope and survival.

Thank you for your compassion and support during this critical time. We will keep you updated on their progress and the impact your donations will make.

We are reaching out with an urgent plea for help.

A brave little kitten, Maeve, recently came into our rescue after being found running across the busy North Circular Road. Thankfully, she was saved from harm, but she has sustained an injury that requires immediate medical attention. Unfortunately, the end of her tail is severely damaged and must be amputated to prevent further pain and complications. This sweet kitten has already been through so much, and we are determined to give her the best chance at a healthy and happy life.

How You Can Help
We need to raise funds to cover the cost of her surgery and post-operative care. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in ensuring she gets the treatment she needs.

Donate
Please consider making a donation to support Maeve's surgery. You can contribute by bank transfer to HSBC account number 52248573, sort code 40-25-02, or using the Paypal link on our Donating page.

Share
Help us spread the word by sharing this appeal with your friends, family, and social media networks. The more people who know about her situation, the better our chances of raising the necessary funds.

Support If you are unable to donate, consider offering support in other ways, such as volunteering your time or providing supplies. Your generosity will provide this kitten with the chance to heal and live a full, happy life. Together, we can turn her story from one of despair to one of hope and recovery.

​Thank you for your compassion and support during this critical time. We will keep you updated on her progress and the positive impact your donations will make.

Wesley's Story

12/7/2024

0 Comments

 
by a Guardian Angels fosterer
In March 23 I received a call from Youngs Veterinary Partnership in Hounslow, the primary vet our charity uses, to say that a stray cat had been brought in and needed urgent treatment. That cat was Wesley!

He was in a really terrible state, suffering from such a severe eye infection in both eyes, that it had rendered him completely blind. I told my other charity workers of his plight and the fact that he would need very expensive surgery to remove his eyes and they immediately set about doing a special fundraising appeal for him. 

 Guardian Angels Animal Support successfully raised the money needed for his surgery.

Post surgery, because of his FIV status, the wound sites took a long time to heal, but eventually they did and Wesley adapted extremely well to being blind, learning to climb and even play with a moving shoelace!

Then exactly a year on, March 24, a wonderful person, Alison, contacted us offering to adopt him a give him a forever home, with all the love and care, that had been missing from his previous life.

So recently, in June, I had the great pleasure of going to visit him and Alison in his new home. It was a wonderful occasion, as Wesley had been a foster cat with me since before his surgery.

I am extremely grateful to everyone who was involved in the saga, Youngs Vets, primary fund raiser Tracey, all the volunteers who provided all the  transportation backwards and forwards to Youngs for all his follow up visits and of course to Alison for adopting him.

Thank you everyone, Wesley is extremely grateful!

Dear Animal Lovers,
Guardian Angels Animal Support is urgently seeking compassionate and dedicated foster carers to provide temporary homes for our rescued animals. We are currently at capacity and need your help to continue our mission of saving and rehabilitating these precious lives.

Why foster?
Fostering provides a safe and loving environment for animals who are waiting for their forever homes. It also helps us rescue more animals in need. As a foster carer, you play a crucial role in their journey to recovery and adoption.

What we need:
  • Temporary homes: We need homes for a variety of animals, including kittens, cats, puppies, and dogs.
  • Time and love: The most important requirement is your time, love, and commitment to providing a safe and nurturing environment.
  • Basic care: You'll be responsible for feeding, basic training, and socialization. Medical care and supplies are provided by us.

Benefits of Fostering:
  • Make a difference: Directly impact the lives of animals in need.
  • Flexible commitment: Foster for a period that suits your lifestyle.
  • Support system: Receive support and guidance from our experienced team.

How to Get Involved:
If you’re interested in becoming a cat foster carer, please visit our Volunteering page. Our team will guide you through the process and provide all the necessary information. If you would like to foster dogs, or simply to find out more first, please email us on [email protected].

Join us in making a difference. Your home could be the first step to a brighter future for an animal in need.
Thank you for your support and compassion.

A plea for help

8/5/2024

We're reaching out with an urgent request for assistance. Our rescue is currently overwhelmed with adorable kittens, each in need of proper nutrition to thrive. However, we're facing a critical shortage of kitten food.

Without an adequate supply of nutritious food, these kittens are at risk of not getting the essential nutrients they need for healthy growth and development. Nursing mothers need the extra nutrients in kitten food too to be able to feed their babies, so with 9 mums and 38 kittens we're currently getting through about 150 pouches a day. 

Your support can make a tangible difference in the lives of these vulnerable animals. Whether it's through donations of kitten food or spreading the word to others or donating money for food, every action counts. We have a PayPal link, an Amazon wishlist and a food collection box at the Young Veterinary Partnership Hounslow branch.

Please consider helping us in this crucial effort to ensure that these kittens receive the care and nourishment they deserve, and thank you so much if you've given already. Together, we can make a meaningful impact and give these little ones the best chance at a bright and healthy future.

We had an urgent call from someone today to say she'd spotted this mother feeding her kittens at Bedfont Lakes, Feltham. All four are now safe with us and will be listed on our Cats for Adoption page when ready to go to new homes. 

This happens a lot, and more now that kitten season is hitting. Mum cats need extra food to be able to feed their babies, which is why we're extra grateful right now for every penny our supporters can spare. All money raised goes to care for cats and kittens like these,

Rabbits!

This lovely couple are Sera (white) and Hank!

They're a mature mated pair who enjoy bickering as much as they love cuddling and snuggling together. They both love their fruit and veggies - especially Sera, who is a real foodie - and could sleep through an earthquake, so perfect for any home, however noisy or quiet.

Hank is energetic, playful and goofy, and likes to tease people and nip at their feet for attention. He loves being petted and having his nose tickled, and even allows hugs and cuddles when he's in the mood.

Sera will sometimes join Hank for a good run round, but usually prefers to relax and watch whatever's happening. She's deaf, so it's best to approach her with care, but on the bright side she's completely relaxed during cage cleans, around vacuum cleaners and even during firework season. Food is always the best way to get her attention.

Sera and Hank are looking for a loving, tender, forever home where they could enjoy each other's company, new friends and loads of snacks! If you'd like to find out more, please email us on ​[email protected].
