Adoption
We have lots of lovely bunnies and guinea pigs looking for new homes. All of our animals deserve a second chance and a family to call their own. Our rabbits are health checked, neutered and vaccinated before they leave us and we offer life-long support should you need it. If you have space in your home for a couple of extra residents, please don't hesitate to get in touch. We have bunnies and guinea pigs of all shapes and sizes so hopefully have the right match for your family!
Pet Services
To help fund the rescue, we offer boarding for small animals (e.g. rabbits and guinea pigs) while you go on holiday. All animals are kept in minimum 6ft hutches overnight with access to runs on grass in a secure paddock during the day. We also offer various dog walking and pet sitting services. We can easily adapt our care to suit your pet's needs and are happy to give medication, etc. Our boarding spaces fill up fast - particularly in school holidays - so please get in touch soon! Please visit www.furlockholmes-services.co.uk to find out more about our second business and how it fundraises for the rescue.
Animal Visits
We take our specially-trained team of rabbits and guinea pigs (and occasionally ponies, ferrets, bantam chickens, snails and more) into nursing homes, schools and other residential/day care places. During an animal visit session, participants are able to have a small animal on their lap for handling. They are encouraged to interact with the animal and groom/feed/talk to the animal and we find this is incredibly beneficial for all participants. As well as this, we offer educational visits to schools and groups.

Private Tour Experience
Due to COVID-19, many of our fundraisers, workshops and boarding bookings have had to be cancelled. This means we have been left with very little funding and all our supporters have been left missing our animals! We thought we would change that and start by offering coronavirus-friendly private tours! We are opening our doors for one family/small group at a time to visit and meet our animals. With activities such as ferret walking, pony grooming, egg collecting, tortoise bathing and so much more, it is a great activity for all members of the family!
​
Our private tours are also a great opportunity to meet the different types of animals we house and to have a chat with us about potentially adopting some new family members. Let your children experience what it's really like to care for an animal! If you are interested in any particular type of animal, please mention this to us beforehand and we will make sure to focus on that animal.
​
We will provide lots of hand sanitiser and there will be a maximum of one group at a time allowed on site to ensure social distancing. We will also make sure to wash down and disinfect all equipment between visitors.
​
We ask for a minimum £20 donation which goes straight to the charity to help us stay afloat in these difficult and uncertain times.
