I
started rescuing feral cats twenty years ago and have been rescuing
and living with foxes in my home for nearly fifteen years.
The
Sanctuary was established thirteen years ago when I moved to Whittlebury,
Northants. It started with just five feral cats and one fox, Algy, but
grew rapidly with the intake of local ferals and Chessie, a one-eyed
vixen cub from Essex. Then, about eight years ago I began to take in
poultry as well and I now have three geese, some 40 assorted hens and
cockerels and a dear white guinea fowl called Archie.
In August 2001, after funding the Sanctuary entirely out of my own pocket,
I
had come
to the
point
where
I would
either have to close
or go public and so the Algernon Trust, named after that first fox I
ever rescued, was born.
In addition to providing long term care at the Sanctuary, I also go
out on local animal rescues.
When I am not involved in the day to day care of the sanctuary or out
rescuing animals, I can be found all over trying to raise funds to pay
for the enormous costs of running an animal sanctuary.
