If you do one thing today, please make it sharing this adoption advert! we really need to find this lad a home ! ๐ Available to meet in Faversham, Kent Calling all semi- experienced dog owners! Meet Ace, our gorgeous smiley boy! Ace is a gorgeous 5 year old Shepherd Mix, love bug with the most infectious smile! Despite everything he has been through recently, Ace seems to have a permanent smile on his face. Sadly, his dad has passed away, and his mum is no longer well enough to give Ace the walks and exercise he needs. Losing his main person has been a huge change for him, and although this decision has been incredibly difficult, the kindest thing is to find Ace a new home where he can have the happy, active life he deserves. At just 5 years old, Ace absolutely loves his walks so very much, so we would really love to find Ace a home that can offer him two nice walks a day. He is in general a very well rounded dog that shouldn't be an issue for any good dog owner. Ace is a very environmentally sound dog. He is good with passing bikes, people, kids, cars, trains, busy towns and you can take him pretty much anywhere but he does need to time to relax on the first few days of being homed as this is where he can be a tad unsure of himself. Ace is: โค๏ธ Neutered โค๏ธ Vaccinated โค๏ธ Microchipped โค๏ธ Comes with 5 weeks' free pet insurance โค๏ธ Good with all dogs on his walks (he pretty much just ignores them and if one is reactive to him he is totally submissive and hides behind your legs) โค๏ธ Happy to live as the only dog or with a very calm, laid back canine companion that won't overwhelm him โค๏ธ Walks well on and off the lead (although off - lead will take some time after bonding to the family) โค๏ธ Gentle when taking treats and knows some basic commands โค๏ธ Is fantastic in the car โค๏ธ Good with visitors in the home (all currently including young visiting grandchildren) โค๏ธ Is clean in the house and can be left alone โค๏ธ A lovely, affectionate all rounder with a heart of gold Ace has also had scale and polish, so those beautiful pearly whites can keep flashing that famous smile! Cats, however, aren't Ace's thing , so he would need a cat free home. Ace has never lived with a dog before but is fine with them on walks and has had doggie pals in the past that he has had play dates with. He particularly likes well rounded, calm dogs and will actively engage in play with them if he has met them a few times and trusts that they are safe. If he is to be homed with another dog we would prefer them to be submissive, nice and laid back and kind as he gets a bit frightened when a dog is overly keen on him. Ace can get very excited when meeting people and may jump up a little, so we'd prefer any children in his new home to be 12+, simply because he could accidentally knock younger children over in his enthusiasm. Honestly, you really do need to meet this boy to appreciate just how special he is. He is gentle, loving, full of personality and has the most wonderful smile and anyone would be incredibly lucky to have Ace by their side. All Ace needs now is someone willing to take things at his pace, give him time to settle when transitioning and generally just offer him a laid back approach and nice walks. ๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐๐ฌ adopted out once and then r๐๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐๐ฐ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ a couple of ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง, ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก ๐ง๐จ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ญ ๐จ๐ ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐จ๐ฐ๐ง. ๐๐ were ๐๐๐ฌ๐จ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ญ๐๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐จ๐จ๐ซ ๐๐จ๐ฒ ๐ก๐ ๐ก๐๐ฌ ๐๐๐๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก ๐ฌ๐จ ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐๐ก and it honestly wasn't his fault. Just a couple of hours into his new home Ace was clearly feeling a little overwhelmed with all that was going on, the multiple people asking for his attention and all the news things that were being asked of him and he gave a tiny lip curl to the teenage son when he came over to join him on the sofa. It was so minor and to be honest, we are gutted we have to disclose this on his advert as we know this will impact his chances of being picked again but it would be unprofessional of us not to mention it. This has never happened in the 5 years he has been in his current home, not even around young kids. We are sure that this was very likely just down to too much going on and the stress and newness of moving to a new home. Any experienced dog owner will know it is actually a super common behaviour that is SO quickly solved when a dog is over whelmed. He didn't growl, lunge or bite he just gave a short lip curl and that was that. This could be so easily remedied and likely needed a bit more time for him to bond with everyone in the home and a calm off the sofa whilst he found his feet but unfortunately this was enough to get Ace sent straight back to rescue. ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ฌ๐ ๐จ๐ง๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐ข๐, ๐ซ๐๐ฅ๐๐ฑ๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ ๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ ๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ญ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ง๐๐๐๐ฌ ๐ฌ๐จ๐ฆ๐ ๐ ๐ฎ๐ข๐๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ก๐ข๐ฅ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ง. ๐๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ก๐๐ฏ๐ ๐จ๐ฐ๐ง๐๐ ๐ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ก๐๐ฉ๐ก๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐๐ ๐ ๐ฐ๐๐ฅ๐ค ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ค ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ!

**Available to meet in Kent** Meet 6 years old Tilly! We call her the cartoon cat as she doesn't look real! she always has a big grin on her face and is ready to greet you. Tilly came to us after enduring five years in truly horrific conditions. Sadly, she arrived with the worst teeth we have ever seen in rescue. Her first weeks with us were all about rest, love, and giving her the chance to decompress from the life she'd known. She has since undergone a full dental and had all but three of her teeth removed. The relief on her little face afterwards was unmistakable. Since then, she's been making up for lost time, enjoying all the food she likes (she eats absolutely everything, even biscuits with no trouble) and spending peaceful days with her new feline friends. Tilly would live well with other cats or be equally fine on her own. She is a quiet, calm, golden soul of a cat who asks for so little. She has settled beautifully alongside all of the other cats, even those who weren't quite as pleased to meet her at first. Her gentle nature is nothing short of remarkable. She truly embodies what rescue is all about. Although she's still finding her confidence with people, Tilly has never shown a hint of aggression. She happily accepts gentle fuss and is growing braver with every passing day and we are 100% she will be a little lap cat in time. All she needs is a patient, understanding adopter who will let her continue to blossom at her own pace. Tilly is still very hand shy so an adopter will need to understand they may not be able to stroke her immediately. Considering everything she has been through, her kindness and resilience are simply extraordinary. She could so easily have lost trust in the world, yet she remains nothing but gentle. Tilly absolutely loves playing and toys and will happily entertain herself for hours with them! She also enjoys playtime with a human so it would be really great if she could have a home that will play with her and get her some nice toys. Now that her dental treatment is behind her, Tilly has been fully health checked, blood tested (all clear), vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. At six years old, she is finally ready to find the loving home she has always deserved and begin the next chapter of her life. Tilly is looking for a calm, quiet adult home (children aged 12+ would be considered), with safe outdoor access via a cat flap and away from any busy main roads (she will need to stay inside for around 8 weeks given she is shyer). Most importantly, she's looking for people who will give her the time, patience, and love she's waited so long for. She is still a very shy cat but we really don't think that will be for long in the right home. We can honestly say you'll struggle to meet a kinder cat than Tilly. There's something truly special about this little girl, and we can't wait for the right person to see what we see. She is available to meet in Chartham Hatch, Kent.
**Available to meet in Chartham Hatch, Kent** Meet Theodore and Terry Bonded 20/22 week old brothers looking for their forever home together. These two were born in a field and survived by begging for food in peopleโs gardens. When they first arrived at the rescue, they were terrified, trembling like little leaves. It was heartbreaking to see. Since then, theyโve come on in leaps and bounds and have grown into curious and affectionate kittens who are discovering just how wonderful life can be. We wouldnโt call these two cats shy anymore at all (although Terry takes a little time to warm up and will need a patient hand), theyโre super happy to see you when you come into their enclosure! In just a few weeks theyโve learned to trust, and weโre confident theyโll continue to blossom in a patient, loving home. They absolutely adore chicken and treats, youโll soon have them won over with a few tasty rewards! We do think that when moved they may hide for a day or two but not for long. These guys are very active and playful so a home that has time to play with them while they settle in would be ideal. These boys currently live with 10 other cats, so theyโre very well socialised with felines. They could happily live with other friendly cats and are also comfortable around calm, cat savvy dogs. They are: * Neutered * Vaccinated * Microchipped * Health checked * Come with 5 weeksโ free Petplan insurance Theyโll need: * A quieter home with children over 12 * Safe outdoor access via a cat flap once settled. * A home away from busy main roads. Theodore and Terry have already overcome so much in their short lives. Now all they need is someone to show them what it means to be truly loved. We donโt want these special siblings to grow up in rescue when they deserve a home of their own. If you think you could offer Theodore and Terry the happy ending theyโve been waiting for, please get in touch via the website, These guys are honestly super cute and will give back so much.

He particularly likes well rounded, calm, female dogs and will actively engage in play with them. He gets nervous around dominant males and although is good with them on walks, we would rather he wasn't homed with one as we can see his body language is a little more submissive and unsure around them.

โค๏ธ BEFORE YOU READ ANY FURTHERโฆ YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT FRANK IS THE BEST CAT ON PLANET EARTH. โค๏ธ Honestly. We mean it. You HAVE to meet him to understand just how incredibly special this boy is. **Available to meet in Kent** Meet Frank, our gorgeous 10 year old golden oldie who, through absolutely no fault of his own, found himself homeless after his owners got a dog and simply put him out on the street to fend for himself. Frank was out there for quite some time and, unsurprisingly, had really struggled. Thankfully, those days are behind him now. He is back to top notch health, happiness and absolute fabulousness and he is thriving. Frank is the ultimate gentle giant. He is kind, calm, affectionate and loving, with the most wonderful nature. He has so much love to give and would happily spend his days cuddled up with his favourite human. ๐พ A few VERY important things about Frank: โค๏ธ He loves his human and will cuddle you tightly. โค๏ธ He is perfectly happy being picked up, cuddled and thoroughly squished. โค๏ธ He is a big boy, with an enormous head and an equally enormous heart. โค๏ธ He will happily greet you when you come home. โค๏ธ He is curious and gentle with other cats and could live with another very calm, friendly cat. โค๏ธ He could potentially live with a calm, cat friendly dog. If you have a dog, you are welcome to bring them along to a meet and greet. โค๏ธ Children are absolutely a yes! Frank is happy around humans of all ages. He just wants someone to love him, cuddle him and give him all the fuss he deserves. ๐ฉบ A little bit about Frankโs health condition We know medical information can sometimes put people off, so we want to be completely open about Frankโs condition. Frank has IBD (inflammatory bowel disease), but it is very well controlled and causes him no symptoms when he has his medication. He needs just ยผ of a tiny steroid tablet once a day, which he happily takes hidden in his dinner. The medication works incredibly well for him , he doesn't vomit, and his poo is lovely and solid. He is on the lowest possible dose, and the medication costs approximately ยฃ10 - ยฃ19 per month, depending on how you purchase it. His IBD does not affect his health in other areas and he can still be insured. With his daily medication, you genuinely wouldn't know he has the condition. So please, don't let this small medical issue overshadow the absolutely enormous personality attached to it. ๐ก What home are we looking for? Frank would love a safe home with cat-flap access to a secure outdoor area, away from busy main roads. He loves a long nap beside his human, followed by pottering outside when he's ready. He really is the perfect mixture of couch cuddler and independent explorer. And finallyโฆ We know Frank is 10 years old. We know he's black. And we know that sadly, older black cats aren't always the first ones people choose. But please don't let his age or colour make you scroll past him. Because what Frank lacks in the things people seem to look for on paper, he makes up for in absolute buckets of personality, love and sweetness. This boy has the fullest heart. He is gentle, affectionate, hilarious, calm and just incredibly special. He deserves to spend his retirement years knowing what it feels like to be truly loved, wanted and part of a family. Please consider Frank. And if you're unsure, come and meet him. We have a feeling that once you've met Frank, you'll understand exactly why we think he's the best cat on planet earth.
Good morning from our lovely Winnipeg who is having a bad week this week. Sheโs struggled with her walking. We hope her joint lubrication next Wednesday will get her slightly back on track and we shall be upping her micro-dose of ketamine too ๐๐ฝ life can seem so unfair when doing this job but we have to focus on the good and the good is that she has so much high quality care and people that adore her and she wants for nothing. โค๏ธ #florisfriendsrescue #dogsofinstagram

Unfortunately, late last night we had to say goodbye to Autumn ๐ she was such an incredible little girl. She brought so much sunshine into so many lives. She was brave, kind and determined to enjoy life..She was loved by absolutely everyone who knew her. We would like to thank all the amazing human beings involved in making Autumns time on this earth possible and so happyโฆ. Her lovely foster family for loving her so much, all the amazing online supporters who enabled us to pay for her care, all of the amazing vets that ever treated her and generally all the people that have supported Autumn over the years. Sleep tight little girl. We were all very blessed to have known you.
Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far. We have raised ยฃ1500 and unfortunately the estimated bill is now looking FAR greater than ยฃ15,000. Today we have parted with ยฃ12,500 and we are only 24hours into her care. Here she is today, doing better than yesterday but no where close to being of the woods yet. Please keep sharing and donating, we have never needed you guys more. This is critical for her and to us a charity to be able to still provide care to the other animals that need our funding for medical issues at this time. We have had to cancel our next paralysed animal because of this billโฆthis is an unbelievably stressful time for everyone as sadly your donations are what we rely on to save lives ๐ please help us keep the momentum up and keep sharing โค๏ธ thank you.

It is with such sadness that our darling Autumn is in critical care. Sheโs had some serious surgery today in hope to save her life. A perforated stomach and an abdomen filled with fluid on top of coming into sepsis. Thereโs a small chance she may pull through this and as horrible it is for us to even mention money, sadly this is going to cost in the 15k+ region seeing as she needs ICU for a couple of weeks. Todayโs surgery was ยฃ7500, without the out of hours care she needs until Monday when she can be transferred to an expensive icu specialist hospital. We were just raising money for our end of life dogs and now this happened and we are just floored with the expense . If you can help us help autumn you know what to do ๐ข we are absolutely gutted . One of the saddest days we have had in a long time. Www.florisfriendsrescue.org/donate
After 3 years, we are slowly starting to understand Patsyโs complex little body. She has been fighting multiple conditions since the day she came into our care. Some days it has felt a little overwhelming and we have felt very sorry for little Patsy. Recently, we have been making quite good progress with the help of our lovely vet and she seems to be generally healthier and much more full of life! We have now gotten her off her steroids completely and her new food has greatly improved her IBD. She is such a lovely, happy and kind little girl. For a dog that had her legs brutally cut by a human, she is so very trusting. Hereโs to more good days for our little P ๐ฉท๐ฉท๐ฉท #florisfriendsrescue #dogs #dog #dogrescue #adopt
๐พ Meet Pumpkin & Hallie ๐พ 16 week old sisters, two little survivors looking for their forever home. Pumpkin and Hallie had an incredibly difficult start to life. They were found living behind a butcherโs shop, desperately trying to survive amongst the bins. When they arrived at rescue, they were trembling like little leaves, completely shut down and terrified of human touch. But just look at them now. ๐ฅน They have come such a long way, and their personalities are finally beginning to shine through. Pumpkin, our gorgeous tortie, has become the ultimate cuddle queen. She absolutely adores people and wants to be wherever you are. She'll happily sit on your lap, shower you with cuddles and kisses, and follow you around like your very own little shadow. She is such a loving, affectionate girl. Hallie is currently much more reserved. She's a shy little soul who needs a quiet, patient home where she can take things at her own pace. She isn't quite ready to trust people as completely as Pumpkin does yet, but she is making progress every day and is enjoying a gentle pet. The wonderful thing about these two is that they bring out the best in one another. Hallie takes confidence from Pumpkin and learns from her that people can be trusted. They love playing together and keeping each other company, and we really feel they would thrive as a pair. ๐ก The home we're looking for: ๐พ A quieter, peaceful home ๐พ Children over 10 are fine ๐พ They can live happily with other cats ๐พ Calm, cat-friendly dogs are fine ๐พ Cat flap access is required ๐พ A home away from busy main roads These two are the true meaning of rescue. Despite everything they have endured, they have shown such incredible bravery, resilience and forgiveness. They deserve a home where they can finally feel safe, loved and cherished. If you choose Pumpkin and Hallie, you really will be rescuing a cat, twice over. And we promise, the love you put into them will come back to you tenfold. Both girls are healthy, vaccinated, microchipped and will be neutered when age appropriate. They also come with 5 weeks' free pet insurance. ๐ They are currently in foster and available to meet in Faversham, Kent. If you think you could offer these two very special girls the safe, loving forever home they have waited so long for, please get in touch. ๐พ
