When Ladybird rescues an animal from the shelter system it is often impossible to know what kind of medical or behavioural issues they have. They may have experienced trauma or have serious medical conditions that are not initially apparent. Once our vets have examined and treated the animals, occasionally it is decided that the best thing for the animal would be to stay in Ladybird’s care permanently. This most often happens when an animal is considered difficult to adopt because it has a medical condition that either requires expensive ongoing veterinary treatment, or has resulted in a short life expectancy. These animals are otherwise sweet, wonderful companions who deserve the best life possible.
