Domestic Rescue
For thousands of North Devon people, from Barnstaple children to Bideford pensioners, domestic pets such as dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish and ponies provide a lifetime of pleasure and company. Occasionally, however, things go wrong: aged carers die suddenly, personal circumstances change or, even in a nation renowned for its animal lovers, innocent domestic animals find themselves on the receiving end of cruelty and mistreatment.
The North Devon Animal Ambulance is there to help
Fortunately, due to your generous donations, hard-working volunteer fundraisers and committed volunteers the North Devon Animal Ambulance (NDAA) is there to help. The following is just a small selection from the many examples that the team deals with.
