Halloween Fun

We’ve had lots of fun with the animals this Halloween, giving out tasty pumpkin treats (no tricks here, just treats!) and having a go at bobbing for apples - Penny the goat had the best technique and managed to work out how to get them, much to the disapproval of the others!

Many of the apples that we are currently using have been very kindly donated by people with apple trees in their gardens. As the majority of our animals can eat apples, these are very much appreciated by us all. Thank you!

Halloween usually marks the end of our open year, as we traditionally close at the end of October until the following Spring. However, after lots of requests from our wonderful supporters, we have decided to stay open at weekends until Christmas. We will have slightly revised opening hours of:
10am to 4pm (with last entry at 3pm)
Winter can be the toughest time for us and our animals, so it is at this time of year that we need your support more than ever!
Thank you, and we hope to see you soon.



It's wonderful to hear you'll be staying open on weekends until Christmas! Winter is such an important time to support animal sanctuaries, and seeing Henry the Rooster enjoying Halloween activities made me smile. I love places that care so deeply for their animals. On quieter evenings after a visit, I sometimes relax with Crossy Road, the arcade game where players help quirky animal characters cross busy roads and rivers—it always reminds me how much personality animals have. Wishing you a successful winter season!
