The Blue Cross - Help Save an Animal Today

Thank you for viewing my Blog, I’m June and I hope you can learn all about the Blue Cross and know exactly what they do. Animals everywhere are in a case of whether their family is secure and caring, not so or don’t have an owner at all. This NEEDS to change immediately. Like a brother, sister or a child, you wouldn’t leave them outside or alone in the cold... would you? It is a shame that that kind of approach isn’t acted upon to pets such as a cat or dog.

That’s when The Blue Cross steps in. Starting in the old streets of London caring for horses that are injured or ill, this charity has grown to take in pets as small as rats and hamsters. Why are animals neglected? This is the question asked by many, especially The Blue Cross. The BC has numerous re-homing centres national to the U.K, as well as four hospitals, having all sorts of pet’s given in from passed away owners to being flushed down the drain and in need of extreme care, in fact, that was one of the cases.

Flush, a heroic story of a near-death situation. An electrician from they’re neighbour’s house had heard a cry from a drowning kitten four feet down a drain, Bradley Jackson could see the kitten trying to reach out to be saved, the electrician quickly saved Flush and immediately travelled to Victoria Animal Hospital (one of The Blue Cross hospitals). A fast check up by the vets and a thorough clean shortly lead to disbelief and relief... Flush was in perfect condition.

 




Had it not been for the electrician or The Blue Cross had the kitten survived, thankfully both were there to save this struggling kitten to being flushed down the drain. After a while with The Blue Cross Flush had fully recovered and know is a healthy grown up cat.

Thank you so much for reading my Blog. I hope you have now a fuller understanding of the cause and why it is so important for us all to help and contribute to this amazing charity, as it gives a new fresh start for the animals as well as life-long happiness to the family that adopts the pet, I have adopted a kitten from the BC and am so happy I saved Juju from his neglected life before… why not you try?
