The Welsh Ponies
An elderly lady died and when her relatives took over and did not want the animals we went in and rescued her ponies, Hungarian Puli dog and her 77 wild cats. We got the dog back from the RSPCA who had taken it away because of negligence and fostered it to a caring home. I asked my friend Celia Hammond to help and she did a brilliant job in catching, neutering , de-worming, de-fleaing and de-absessing the cats before helping us to re-home them. We took on the ponies, Mouse, Sky and Rhett. Their field was full of poisonous ragwort, their stable had a huge hole in the roof, they were thrown white loaves of bread to eat and had not been handled.They were in a pretty poor state when they arrived and the oldest one - Mouse -unfortunately only lasted a few months.
