A long overdue update 🌸
2 December 2025
Today is Give a Little Day — a national celebration of generosity — and Givealittle is completely fee-free for charities for today only.
That means every dollar donated to Canterbury Tails reaches our animals in full. And right now, there is a lot happening!
Frankie has been struggling with breathing issues and has collapsed a couple of times. She’s now on twice-daily medication and in a quieter space so she can rest. We’re working closely with our vet and hoping to see improvements soon.
Our boy Gordon recently had surgery on his comb after a persistent infection. He’s eating, preening, crowing to the other boys, and enjoying little bits of sunshine in his recovery run. He’ll be reunited with his brother William once his sutures come out next week.
Our sweet senior sheep Lucky is also on daily medication at the moment. She needs a bit of extra care and monitoring, but she is loving life with with good food, gentle routines, and lots of love.
We took Panda, Charcoal & her wee lamb to their wonderful new home. Everyone is doing beautifully.
Hercules and Hershey were rehomed a couple of weeks ago and are settling in so well . Will update soon!
We’ve said goodbye to Spike, and also to our little brown hen who passed peacefully at the vet in my arms. It never gets easier, but they were loved, comforted, and safe at the end.
If you’d like to support us on this special fee-free day it would be very appreciated!
#BeKindBeCourageous 💛
