With ears that could give Batman a run for his money and a heart full of love, Mac is searching for his forever home this Batman Day 🦇

At 8-months-old, Mac has spent his early life in kennels due to ongoing legal proceedings, so he can find new experiences a little overwhelming at first.

He's a social butterfly who adores the company of other dogs, so he could live with another well-matched canine companion to share adventures with.

Could you be the hero he's been waiting for? Apply to The Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home - CDCH: https://bit.ly/3Ihrpga

Not in a position to adopt? Please share to help Mac find his forever home 🔁

This weekend our team was able to rescue these two precious donkeys 🥹

The bonded pair has been living out on acres and acres of land. We were told they haven’t received hoof care in at least 8 years!

Getting them here was actually relatively easy compared to what’s ahead. You can clearly see how bad her feet are in these videos. Living like that for so long is extremely exhausting and excruciating, but it could hurt even worse when we get them cut.

We have a wonderful farrier who is extremely knowledgeable, and a wonderful team of vets who will be working closely along with them. They will both be getting X-rays done Wednesday morning before any cutting is done. We will come up with a conservative and comprehensive plan for them both.

I wish it were as simple as trimming her feet and she’s good to go. But sadly trimming could quite possible make things worse. We will do everything we can to ensure that doesn’t happen 🙏

For now though I want to thank everyone who has allowed us to do this for them. They are so tired and have been enjoying resting in a cozy stall under cool fans.

Please continue to share and donate. We have a LONG way to go with them 🙏🫏

We have a HUGE donation match happening right now so ALL donations are doubled! 😭🙏
