🎃👻 TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT, YOU SPOOKY LOT! 👻🎃

The costumes are ready, the cobwebs are up, and somewhere someone is desperately trying to squeeze into an outfit they bought online that looked nothing like the picture. 💀

The Halloween Ball is TONIGHT! 🦇🕷️All the details are on the poster below! 👇

We can’t wait to see you all! And remember, the scarier the costume, the better. Although some of us are frightening enough without one. 😬

LET’S GET SPOOKY! 🎃🖤

HALLOWEEN PLANS? CANCEL THEM. THIS IS BETTER. 🎃

Leones Events Ltd are throwing a HALLOWEEN BALL and somehow Mini Beasts Rescue have been invited to benefit from the evening. Presumably nobody warned them what we’re like.

📅 Saturday 31st October
⏰ From 6:30pm
📍 Ellesborough Parish Hall
🎟️ FREE EVENT - tickets must be booked in advance

Expect Halloween chaos including fancy dress, prizes, stalls, a photographer, sweets for the kids, food and drinks, and, most importantly..

A RAFFLE IN AID OF MINI BEASTS RESCUE! 🎁

So grab your tiny witches, questionable vampires, feral children and that one adult who takes fancy dress far too seriously and come along for a spooky night while helping support the beasts.

There are prizes for best dressed adults AND children, so this is your official permission to be completely unhinged with the costumes. We expect commitment. Fake blood. Drama. Possibly emotional damage.

A massive thank you to Leones Events Ltd for choosing to support our little rescue. Every raffle ticket helps us continue feeding, vetting and generally being held financially hostage by small furry criminals.

GET YOUR TICKETS & GET YOUR COSTUMES READY!
Who’s coming?! 👻🦇🖤

SOS. Kittens are starving... well, according to them anyway. 🙄

Our tiny, furry, permanently hungry freeloaders have been eating us out of house and home, and we’re running desperately low on Felix As Good As It Looks KITTEN wet food and wood pellet cat litter! 🐾

Apparently, being rescued, loved, cuddled, medically cared for and waited on hand and foot isn’t enough. They also expect three meals a day and somewhere clean to deposit the evidence. The audacity.

So we’re asking our lovely supporters if anyone could spare a box or two of food and some cat litter to help keep the little gremlins fed and their bottoms happy. ♥️ We’re specifically after the KITTEN version, please!

Every pouch donated means one less dramatic performance from a kitten who last ate approximately 11 minutes ago and is now apparently on the brink of starvation. And every bag of litter means our foster carers can continue their glamorous careers as professional poo collectors. 💩

Thank you for helping us keep their tiny bellies full, their litter trays clean and their extremely loud complaints to a minimum. 😬

Love, The MB team 🐾

Ps. The kittens would like to clarify that three meals a day is a human rights violation, cleaning their own litter trays is beneath them and they’re currently seeking legal advice.

We currently have 6 farm cats looking for somewhere to call home. These are not your average sofa loving, cuddle demanding, biscuit making house cats. Absolutely not. These are independent contractors. Self employed. Slightly feral members of society who would quite frankly prefer it if you kept your hands to yourself.

They’re looking for farms, stables, smallholdings or suitable rural properties where they can live their best lives, judge you from a distance and occasionally contribute towards pest control.

Their demands are as follows:

🐾 Free accommodation - A safe, dry, sheltered space. They’re not paying rent. Don’t even ask.
🐾 All inclusive catering - Daily food and fresh water. Catching mice is a hobby, not a substitute for dinner.
🐾 Minimal management interference - Someone to keep an eye on them without insisting on unnecessary team building exercises (cuddles).
🐾 A safe working environment - Including somewhere secure to settle in before being allowed to explore their new kingdom.

What do you get in return? Potential pest control, six furry security consultants (available individually or in suitable groups), and the privilege of financially supporting animals who may never acknowledge your existence. It’s basically like having normal cats, except they’ve removed the affection package from your subscription.

Joking aside, these cats deserve somewhere safe to call home, with regular meals, shelter and someone looking out for them. ♥️

If you have a farm, stable or suitable rural space and fancy becoming the unpaid landlord of a small furry freeloader, please get in touch!

Please share 🐈🌾

Duchess by name, demanding old bat by nature.

This lovely lady is sweet, curious, chatty and firmly believes the world revolves around her. And frankly, who are we to argue? She LOVES food. Dinner being 0.3 seconds late will result in a formal complaint, a verbal assault and potentially a call to the authorities. Starvation is a serious matter, apparently.

She enjoys a good fuss and plenty of attention, but sitting on your lap? Absolutely not. She’s a Duchess, not a common peasant. You may stroke her, but please remember your place. Duchess enjoys the occasional wander outdoors, mainly to inspect her estate, judge the neighbours and return home for refreshments. She’s equally happy indoors, provided the catering is up to standard.

Now, other cats. How do we put this delicately? She’s a bitch. A scientifically confirmed, professionally recognised, Grade A bitch towards other felines. She has absolutely no intention of sharing her kingdom with another furry freeloader.

Essentially, Duchess is a middle aged woman trapped in a cat’s body. She likes her food, her personal space, a good gossip and being left alone when she’s had enough of everyone. She’s sweet. She’s sassy. She’s got the attitude of a woman who’s already asked to speak to the manager twice today.

We’ve tried everything to get Miso and Moochi adopted.

We’ve told their heartbreaking backstory. We’ve begged. We’ve pleaded. We’ve practically cried into our keyboards. We've even tried rapping. And still nothing. Not a single forever home in sight.

So, after much deliberation, several cups of coffee and a complete breakdown in the marketing department (Sim), we’ve reached the only logical conclusion.

It's their names. Clearly, Miso and Moochi just aren’t cutting it.

So please, allow us to reintroduce…

👵 PHYLLIS & MAUDE. 👵

Two distinguished ladies looking for a quiet retirement, a comfortable sofa and someone to complain to about the cost of living. They’re a little shy at first, but once they’ve decided you’re acceptable, they’re absolute lovebugs who adore affection. They enjoy a peaceful life, a good fuss and judging the younger generation. They’ve raised their children, survived homelessness and frankly, they’re sick of this nonsense.

So please, someone adopt Phyllis and Maude before we’re forced to rebrand them as Barbara and Ethel. Because at this rate, we’ll have worked our way through the entire bingo hall before they find a home.

Success Story Sunday 🌟

Remember our little Roz? Well, she’s now Maggie, and she’s gone from a nervous little lady hiding under the sofa to a confident queen ruling her forever home! When Maggie first arrived at her new home, she spent her afternoons tucked away under the sofa, unsure of her new surroundings. Fast forward to today and she’s sleeping wherever she pleases, following her humans around and loudly demanding fusses, strokes and, most importantly, treats. Priorities, obviously.

She’s even discovered the great outdoors and has appointed herself head of garden security, bravely defending her territory against the biggest threat known to cats… butterflies. 🦋 Since exploring outside, Maggie has become even more relaxed and confident. The sofa is now for lounging on, not hiding under.

Happy ever after, Maggie. You’ve absolutely smashed it sweetheart. 🐾♥️

Meet Thomas.

Shout Tom Tom and this handsome chap comes charging over like you’ve just announced a nationwide Dreamies giveaway.

He loves a fuss, enjoys rubbing against your legs and has recently discovered that chairs and laps are, in fact, not just for peasants. Groundbreaking research.

Food? Biscuits, Dreamies and licky lix treats are non negotiable. Wet food, however, is a psychological warfare exercise. Sheba is his favourite on Monday, an insult to his ancestors on Tuesday and apparently Gordon Ramsay himself prepared it on Wednesday.

Tom also communicates through gentle nibbles. These can mean 'stroke me', 'stop stroking me' or 'I just fancied biting you'. Good luck working that one out.

Picking him up is permitted on alternate Tuesdays, subject to his mood, the position of the moon and whether Mercury is in retrograde.

Basically, Tom knows exactly what he wants. Unfortunately, he has absolutely no intention of telling you what that is.

Naughty & Nice furries of the week ⭐️

This week, both awards go to the same animal. Because apparently Richard is a man of many talents. Some more questionable than others.

😈Naughty furry of the week - RICHARD 🐱

Richard has clearly been spending far too much time with Fred. Why? Because he’s decided that the BATH is an entirely acceptable place to have a wee. Yes. The bath. Of all the places in the house, Richard has chosen to follow in Fred’s footsteps and turn the family bathroom into a communal urinal. We already had one bathroom criminal. We did NOT need a second.

0/10. Fred’s influence is becoming a safeguarding concern.

😇 Nice furry of the week – ALSO RICHARD 🐱

Because when Richard isn’t treating the bath like a motorway service station toilet, he’s actually an enormous, snuggly cuddle monster. A big, squishy lump of love who wants nothing more than cuddles, affection and to be adored. He’s basically a giant teddy bear. A giant teddy bear with questionable toilet habits.

10/10 for cuddles. Minus 400 for bathroom etiquette.

And that concludes this week’s awards. Richard has somehow managed to be both an absolute delight and a complete disgrace.

Fred, your legacy is spreading. And quite frankly, we’re concerned. 🫠🐾

Sometimes, the most beautiful friendships are the ones you least expect. ♥️

Meet Yarra the cat and Errol the rabbit. Two completely different little souls who, for whatever reason, have struggled to find friendship with their own species. Despite our best efforts, neither has managed to form a lasting bond with their own kind. But then something rather special happened. They found each other.

A cat and a rabbit. Two little misfits who somehow found comfort, companionship and happiness in one another. They don’t care that they’re different. They don’t care that one meows and the other hops. They’ve simply decided that life is a little nicer with each other in it. And honestly? Our hearts can’t cope. So, we’ve decided to look for a very special forever home for them together. 🏡

This won’t be a typical adoption. We will be incredibly selective, with strict terms and conditions to ensure both animals remain safe, happy and have their individual needs met. Their friendship doesn’t remove the risks of a cat and rabbit living together, so appropriate separation, supervision and understanding will be essential.

We know finding the right home won’t be easy, but these two deserve someone who understands just how special they are. Because sometimes family isn’t about being the same. It’s about finding someone who makes you feel safe, loved and a little less alone.

Two different species. Two little hearts. One very unexpected friendship. And perhaps the sweetest love story Mini Beasts has ever had the privilege of witnessing. 🐾💕

20/10/2026

Tikka and Paneer are two bonded boys made up of approximately 70% acrobatics, 30% ear floof and 100% questionable decisions. They spend their days launching themselves off furniture, performing gymnastics nobody asked for and generally behaving like they’ve been raised by a pack of feral squirrels.

Paneer is the confident one. You’ll usually hear him before you see him because his purr sounds like a diesel engine struggling to start on a cold morning. He also identifies as a highly trained assassin. His target? Plastic springs. He proudly marches around with his latest victim hanging from his mouth, growling like he’s just single handedly taken down a wildebeest on the African plains. It’s a 3cm piece of plastic, mate. Calm down.

Tikka is still deciding whether humans can be trusted. Sudden movements are unacceptable, loud noises are a personal attack, and he’d really rather you didn’t breathe too enthusiastically in his direction. However, he’s making fantastic progress thanks to Paneer and some confident older cats. And then there’s food. Oh, sweet heavens, the food. This boy could be in the middle of a full blown existential crisis, but shake a bag of treats and suddenly he’s Usain Bolt in a fur coat. Trust issues? Yes. Food issues? Absolutely not.

They’re playful, mischievous, increasingly confident and have the collective survival instincts of a wet paper bag.
