A stitch in time, saves......our animals
 We are extremely grateful to the Ladies of Barton, who supply us with hand-knitted garments for sale in our Banbury shop. They are Miss Stella Bagshall, pictured left and Mrs Lily Conway, pictured right. Everything from tea cosies, hot water bottle covers, mittens, hats, scarves; the list goes on and they all sell like hot cakes in the shop.
Together with Mr Paddy Conway, they also collect donations of goods in the Barton area and collect cash. A fantastic achievement and very much appreciated.
All the proceeds from our shop, goes towards helping the disadvantaged animals that our Inspectors recover in Oxfordshire, so keep getting the needle, Ladies!

We have teamed up with 'Animal Finders' to provide the most up to date listings for lost and found animals in Oxfordshire. This free service is to help lost, stolen or found pets such as dogs, cats and ferrets, plus horses and all sorts of other animals in our area. When animals are reported to 'Animal Finders' - they notify the local vets, wardens, shelters and rescue organisations in the local area. They call this their Offical Alert Network. They also distribute reports to members of their Local Pet Watch scheme, on the ground in the area. This is a brand new service which is being trialed in Oxfordshire for the first few months. The service will be available nationwide in 2010. The site is currently in beta testing mode, so you may find a few featured disabled. So if you have lost or found an animal in or around Oxfordshire check out our Lost & Found page now... |
