Around noon today my Geoffrey collapsed & I couldn’t save him. My world has gone dark & nothing will ever be the same again. My first best boy. My everything. If love could’ve saved you, you would have lived forever. I will see you again one day my darling boy. Wait for me🌈

It’s not that big a deal but I know what it’s like to be terrified in a car with other drivers just treating you like an idiot. We followed in our car to see her to safety. This is how women look after women & also prevented head on collisions. Think before you honk that horn!

I really don’t care who has an opinion on this. Today was my first Mother’s Day in 14 years without my Geoffrey and it hurt like hell. Love is love & grief is grief. There was no card ‘from him’ and that was very hard because I’m not his mum anymore, he’s gone.

I’m aghast. A man just angrily confronted me for “feeding vermin”😳 My beloved #CrowCrew have to somehow survive amongst this literal human garbage👇🏽 Trying to explain this & I got “jog on sc*m”. The audacity & irony! Hasn’t ruined my day & won’t stop me supporting wildlife💪🏽

After losing my girl today the universe gave me another chance to save a life. Never has life so clearly shown me that there’s always new hope. So that’s her name! Everything’s going to be ok sweetheart. I got you. #KeepTheBan #ForTheAnimals ❤️💪🏽🦊

5 weeks ago this boy found his way to me in distress, badly burned by a firework, soot marks around the wincing wound. Today he waits patiently for his dinner. Healed, calm & safe. We all have the ability to do good, no matter how small. Let’s use that power💪🏽 #AnimalRescue ❤️

I can’t even put a figure on the number of animals we’ve taken to safety today. More than 100 for sure & so many different species😅 None of this could happen without the time & effort of all of us💪🏽 We made a miracle happen today. A bloody miracle❤️ #AnimalRescue 🫶🏽

Some things are harder than others. Driving is the hardest. For nearly 14 years his spot was beside me. Putting my handbag there I felt sick. So I’ve got out. I’m walking to feed the #CrowCrew It will take a lot longer but it’s too hard riding solo today. #Grief 💔

I’ve been looking online for rescue dogs. Not for now. For “one day”. My heart is very not recovered from losing my Geoffrey. But I’m so saddened by how many there are just waiting for a family. And now my heart’s hurting in a different way😔 #AdoptDontShop 🙅🏽‍♀️

He’s had a bit of pain relief, a good drink & a snack. I’ve ordered more homeopathic mange treatment as well so I’ll give them all a dose💊 Hopefully we’ll get there but aslong as there is an appetite for food he has a fighting chance 💪🏽 #AnimalRescue ❤️

A reminder that we’re in April 2024 & the UK glue trap ban is now in force🎉 If you see traps in shops report them to TRADING STANDARDS. It’s unfortunately one of those laws that won’t be taken seriously but you can hit them where it hurts with a big fat fine. #ProtectAnimals 💪🏽

Call me disgusting if you like but I fished all of this out of a public bin I walk passed. I will distribute it to hungry wildlife. I don’t feel any shame at all, the shame belongs to the person who binned it.

Since the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, nature rebuilt this no go zone. Free from man it flourished into the most beautiful haven for animals. Free of persecution. It’s now been blown to smithereens. I am tired and my heart is utterly broken. WHEN WILL WE STOP 💔💔 #Chernobyl

Just a reminder that if you’re teaching your children about animals by watching them through glass or against concrete walls, you’re not teaching your children about animals, you’re teaching them oppression. #OpenTheCages ✊🏽

Like so many I’m heartbroken by her death so close to freedom. Heartbroken that she spent 50 years in a bathtub being paraded like a toy. Heartbroken that her only freedom came in death. I can only hope that the publicity puts marine parks in the bin forever. #RIPLolita 💔

I am heartbroken. After 3 years of being the goodest boy I found Duncan by the river this morning. He broke his foot over the weekend. I’d found him a hospital place but I was too late. It was too much for his little body. Sleep tight little boy. The tears won’t stop 💔

The pain meds seem to kicking in, he’s putting a little weight on his injured foot. I can also see wisps of fur growing back over the burn & the scab is small now. Hopefully no more injuries for our poor wee boy. #ProtectBritishWildlife 🦊 #BanFireworks 🚫

Extraordinary report by @Channel4News tonight on fox hunting. I’m shocked but not shocked simultaneously. I don’t really know what else to say, except to ask the public to keep supporting the law & the ban. ALL criminals need to be prosecuted, even the posh ones. #KeepTheBan 🦊
