LAST CHANCE ANIMAL RESCUE
LAST CHANCE ANIMAL RESCUE, WITH CENTRES IN EDENBRIDGE AND NEW ROMNEY, AIMS TO RE-HOME ALL ABANDONED AND UNWANTED ANIMALS FOR WHOM THIS REALLY IS A‘ LAST CHANCE’. THIS MONTH, WE SPOKE TO THE RESCUE ABOUT THEIR PLANS AND WHY THEY ARE STILL SO NEEDED …
As our name suggests we rescue, rehabilitate and re-home abandoned, abused and unwanted dogs and cats. We not only take in animals in dire straits from the public but also rescue regularly from dog pounds where the dogs are on‘ death row’.
Our rescue centre is unique as we treat every one of the animals in our care as if they were our own. We give them all the medical treatment they may require, regardless of cost, and we give them clean, comfy kennels or cat cabins which are heated and have nice cosy beds. They all have their individual dietary needs met and receive lots of walks and if they like them, cuddles during the day. We ensure each animal is neutered, ID chipped and inoculated and they leave Last Chance with four weeks’ pet insurance to get them off to a good start in their new homes. We are non-destruct and will take care of our dogs or cats until they find a loving home.
We have been rescuing needy pets for over 25 years, during which time the charity, which started very small in Edenbridge, has grown into upgraded facilities, and we are now fortunate enough to have a second centre in New Romney. We are constantly improving all aspects of Last Chance so that we can provide the very best care for the animals and currently are fundraising to complete works on a second kennel block at our New Romney Centre.
Over the years we have saved thousands of dogs, puppies, cats and kittens as well as rabbits and guinea pigs too. We rescue approximately
