As our seal season winds down we wanted to say a special thank you two of our team ❤️

Jo has been our seasonal part time vet this year doing an amazing job working alongside our consultant Natalie and the rest of the veterinary team providing medical care to our pup patients, as well as helping with some research, databasing and other hospital mannagement needs 🦭

Emily has been undergoing a student internship placement with us for the University of Plymouth over the past few months. She has been assisting with our social media posts, sponsor updates, fundraising and other admin tasks while learning pup handling and care with our awesome volunteer team and staff 👍

In yet another busy season we’re hugely grateful for their support and efforts to keep us running smoothly and keep on top of everything we do here. At a recent team social we presented them with a card and flowers from us all as a token of our appreciation.

As the pupping season starts to come to a close, there will always still be a few pups who need our help.
This foursome have visited us throughout February:
Knickerbocker Glory, Snickerdoodle, Gooseberry and Fool.
Knickerbocker is now at RSPCA West Hatch Wildlife and was renamed Ac/DC if you would like to keep up with his rehab journey; Snickerdoodle and Fool are now at the Cornish Seal Sanctuary!
Gooseberry is still with us, he started out rather poorly but is doing better each day, and has developed into a bit of a cheeky pup 🦭

Wonderful to meet Fiona and the team at Bar Tusker in Millbrook, near Torpoint, earlier this week after they very generously donated £250 towards our hospital from a Burns night ❤️

Thank you so much for your support! This will go directly towards the care of the seal pups in our hospital 🦭🦭🦭

The marine wildlife rescue have been in this evening to collect the £250 that was raised from the Burns Night.
Here is Fiona Raymont handing the money to Dan.

Our most recent resident at the hospital was Choux Bun 🧁
He initially came into us a very poorly pup looking very sad. We were really concerned about poor Choux for his first week with us. But luckily with some amazing work from our vets and medics, Choux Bun pulled through. He is now a cheeky chappy with a good amount of fight in him. 🦭
Choux moved onto his next stages of rehab at RSPCA West Hatch Wildlife last week and was renamed REO Speedwagon; you can keep up with his recovery on their page.

If you want to help us out taking care of these amazing pups so we can bring more pups through rehabilitation like Choux Bun, take a look at our Amazon Wishlist and you could donate some presents for pups. 🎁💝

One of our recent pups Panettone having a feast and loving life in his outdoor pool. 🐟🌊
Panettone came to us at the beginning of January with some very nasty wounds. At first we were rather concerned about him, but he was a trooper and fought through… becoming the bright and lively pup you can see here. 🦭

If you want to help us out taking care of these amazing pups so we can bring more pups through rehabilitation to thrive like Panettone, take a look at our Amazon Wishlist and you could donate some presents for pups. 🎁💝
