Hello and welcome to Foal's Pet Shop Blog.

This time we would like to feature the lovely crochet blankets that we stock in the Pet Shop. These are made by some of our volunteers and those blankets that are not needed in the cat houses are sold in our Pet Shop.

They make perfect covers for your cats' favourite sleeping places on chairs, beds etc.

If you have any unwanted yarn, of any thickness, then please consider donating it to us so that we can pass it on to our hard working knitters and crocheters (is there such a word ? ).They not only make the blankets but some of them knit dog coats for us to sell.

A BIG thank you goes out to all of you that either make items for us or who donate yarn. We really do appreciate it.

Best Wishes

DIY

Foal Farm is in need of some DIY help around the farm whilst Jim, our regular helper, recovers from a small operation. If you are interested please call Foal Farm extension 202 or email us at volunteering@foalfarm.org.uk
It's fun and really helpful to the animals.

Foal Farm's Pet Shop

Welcome to the first Foal Farm Pet Shop Blog.

Our Pet Shop is small but hopefully well stocked and sells both new and second hand pet supplies. All the money raised from the sale of donated goods goes straight to help with the care of our animals as do all the profit from goods that we buy in.

We aim to keep our prices competitive as our overheads are minimal. Many of our customers have adopted a Foal animal and like to buy from us as a way of continuing their support.

For this cold winter weather we have cosy dog coats, food for the wild birds and bling bling blinkers for your dogs' collars so that they can be easily seen on these dark mornings and evenings.

We are open on Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday at present, from 1.30 - 4.30pm so come and see us and hopefully pick up bargain.

If you have any unwanted pet goods of any description we will be grateful for them. Any items donated are offered to the kennels and cat houses first and if they are surplus to requirements are sold by us to raise much needed funds

Hope to see you soon.

Happy New Year.

Liz and Anne

Spruce Up

Hi All

Happy New Year to all our supporters.

We hope that you've enjoyed the Christmas and New Year break and are looking forward to 2009 - we certainly are at Foal Farm.

We've been busy with the big tidy up and big thanks to the staff and volunteers for working so hard.

We also have a new gardener, Adrian, who has thoroughly sorted out our beds and gardens. Here are some before and after photos.

The Big Clean Up

Anyone who feels like some fresh air and a bit of work out over Christmas is invited to help with the big Foal Farm tidy up- the perfect antidote to too many mince pies. Please let one of the office staff or managers know if you are interested.
