Animal charities say more people are rehoming animals due to rising costs

An animal sanctuary has set up a pet food bank to help people struggling with rising costs.

Teckels Animal Rescue in Whitminster, near Stroud, will give pet food, treats and advice to those in need on the third Thursday of each month at Starbucks in Stroud.

“The cost of food and insurance is going up, sometimes up by hundreds of pounds. If you are on a single income household then it is a lot for some people,” said Lucy Henderson from Teckels.

It comes as national animal charity Blue Cross says it has seen an increase in pets left in boxes, or tied up with notes on from owners who can not afford to keep them.

“We wanted to try to do something to help these families,” Ms Henderson added.

“The goal is we keep the dogs in the homes with their families. We don't want to have to rehome animals who have families who love them.”

She said the charity had “all sorts of food” to give out, adding: “If you do have a fussy dog or cat, we will try to help.”

No stigma

The Blue Cross says it works with regular food banks to encourage people to donate food for pets as well as humans.

“There is no stigma to asking for help to feed a pet,” said Diane James, from the Blue Cross.

“It's really important that your pet doesn't suffer, so contact us or other charities to see what we can do to help.

“We've seen an increase in boxes being left with notes on, beautifully kept dogs left tied up with notes on. Before you get to that situation please just get in touch with us.”
