What would you like to do?
We recently encountered an issue with receiving emails sent from our website. This problem has now been resolved. We apologize for any lack of response you may have experienced. Please contact us again with any enquiries. Thank you.
We gave over 335 animals a second chance and helped many more along the way.
We really do make a difference!
Eden Animal Rescue is currently facing one of the most challenging times in our journey to help vulnerable animals.
Every single month, we are paying between £5,000 and £10,000 in veterinary bills to provide urgent medical care, life-saving treatments, and essential health checks for the animals who come through our doors. Many arrive sick, injured, abandoned, or in desperate need of support, and we never turn them away when they need us most.
Now, with kitten season just around the corner, the pressure is growing even more.
Each animal requires:
These vital treatments give them the chance of a healthy, safe future and a loving forever home — but the costs for the charity is overwhelming.
We are asking for your help so we can continue rescuing, treating, and protecting animals who have nowhere else to go.
Every donation, no matter how small, truly makes a difference.
Without support, we may be forced to make heartbreaking decisions.
With your help, we can keep saying yes to the animals who need us most.
Thank you for standing with Eden Animal Rescue and for giving these animals a second chance at life.
Unfortunately, despite starting the Royal Canin Sensitivity Control, Dodge has had no significant improvement in his diarrhoea. The next step recommended by the vets is to try AnimalBiome Gut Restore along with another course of steroids. He will then be re-examined in 4 weeks to assess progress.
This has been a lengthy process, but thankfully, Dodge is still in high spirits and acting like the playful pup we all love 🐾💛.
Looking ahead, if these treatments don’t fully resolve his gut issues, the next step could be a faecal transplant. There is hope, however, as we’ve heard that faecal transplant capsules may soon be available, which could mean Dodge wouldn’t require a full anaesthetic for the procedure — a much safer option for him.
Every donation goes directly towards Dodge’s ongoing care, medications, and specialist treatments. Your support continues to make a real difference in his life, and we can’t thank you enough for standing by him 💙
If so, you could make a real difference for the animals at our centre! We’re looking for volunteers to help put up posters in lots of different location, for our events and for the lovely animals currently looking for new homes.
As the fundraising season begins, we’re calling on our amazing community to get involved and help us make this year a success. Our events and activities are a vital part of raising the funds we need, but they simply can’t happen without the support of volunteers. There are plenty of ways you can help, whether you have a little time or a lot. We’re looking for people who can assist with transporting and putting up gazebos, helping to run stalls, supporting us at events, or even organising and running your own fundraising activities on our behalf.
Every bit of help makes a real difference. By volunteering your time or helping us raise funds, you’re directly supporting the work we do and helping us reach more people in our community. If you’d like to get involved this season, we’d love to hear from you. Together we can make our events bigger, better, and more successful than ever. Thank you for your continued support.
If you can spare a morning or an afternoon and would like to make a real difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Thank you for your kindness and support – we couldn’t do it without you!
We have many animals, all with their own personalities and needs, but all with one hope… that they can be the next one to find their new home. Providing them with this chance is quite simply the best way we can help them.
It can be just as good for you as it is for them! That’s not to say it might not take some work (and likely a lot of patience!) as all involved adjust, but we are sure you can already imagine the rewards when everyone has settled in together.
If you think you might be able to offer one of our animals a forever home, you have already taken your first step by looking at our webpage. Your next step is to contact us. Our Rescue Centre at Moorlands Head Farm is open 6 days a week by appointment 11:30am to 3pm (we are closed on Wednesdays for staff training – sorry!). We will ask you to fill out a questionnaire and if you decide to adopt an animal from us, once approved you will have a new friend for life. We may request a home visit after a few weeks.
Not all the cats and kittens we currently have at the centre are on the website. For more information, please email admin@edenanaimalrescue.org.uk

Ways to Donate to Eden animal rescue
DONATE CASH OR GOODIES/THINGS
Raising funds is a huge part of our work and without this money we quite simply couldn’t afford to run the rescue centre.
Help us give over £1 million in 2025
The Benefact Group, does financial services differently – we give all available profits to charity and good causes.
The Movement for Good Awards is our annual programme of giving that anyone can get involved in, and again this year we’ll be donating over £1 million to charities and good causes.
Nominations made from Jan 1st 2025 – December 15th 2025 will be entered into all remaining £1,000 draws. Nominations from previous years do not roll over.
We’re in desperate need of cat and kitten sachets (wet food pouches) to help feed the rescue cats currently in our care.
Times are tough, and our supplies are running low.
These sachets are essential, especially for the older or picky eaters who rely on soft food for proper nutrition.
If you’re able to donate any brands (Whiskas, Felix, Sheba—anything helps!)
Every little bit truly makes a difference.
Eden Animal Rescue is working to raise £500,000 to fund the on-going build of a new kennel block. The aim is to have better facilities for the welfare of the dogs that stay with us.

A Will is one of the most important documents you can draw up. It ensures that your wishes are carried out after your death and that your family, friends, and charitable causes close to your heart, are provided for in the way you would like. If you die without making a Will the State decides what happens to your estate, and it may not go where you would like it to.

Our shops are vital to our fundraising. We can recycle your unwanted things in our charity shops. We have one in Penrith & one in Kirby Stephen.
We will accept with thanks all items that can be reused and are in good condition including used fabric items including; clothes, cloths, shoes, bags & bedding (not duvets & pillows)
As a busy rescue centre, we rely on support from businessess within our community. If your business can help, please get in touch with us.
We especially need supplies of soap powder, washing up liquid, bin liners, dustpan & brushes, brooms & mops.
Other than cash you can support us by donating items for the animals. You can do this by having a look at our Amazon wishlist. We also have collection points in Penrith, for instance our wheelie bin at Morrisons and receptacles at Pets at Home, WCF, Booths, Penrith CoOp & the Devonshire Arcade pet shop.
We really appreciate donations of dogs & cat food, which helps us to keep the animals well fed & healthy. It would be beneficial for the animals to have a consistent diet, so ideally, we’d like Harrington’s Lamb & Rice flavour dog food & Whiskas cat food please. If unsure get in touch before you donate.
Ever Thought Of Fundraising
Interested in fundraising for Eden Animal Rescue, but not sure what activity you would like to do? Check out our guide to fundraising.
Not in a position to adopt an animal?
You can help by sponsoring an animal from as little as £15 year.
We never turn away an animal because of age or health problems and sponsorship helps to cover the cost of medication and food for those animals who are difficult to rehome.
Fostering Homes for Dogs & Cats
We are in need of foster homes for both cats and dogs
A fosterer gives the dog or cat the opportunity to receive the love, care and attention before finding a permanent home.
It is a great way to make friends and become part of the team at Eden Animal Rescue
Whether you are a good poop scooper, great cake baker, DIY enthusiast, dedicated dog walker or just love stroking cats you can help us! Please do contact us if you would like to help or get involved in any way.
We need help in all areas of our work:
There are several benefits to leaving a legacy to Eden Animal Rescue. A legacy will make sure that the charity will continue its invaluable work for years to come.
By including a gift to Eden Animal Rescue in your Will, you will make a lasting impact on the lives of homeless animals in the Eden Valley and beyond. You can choose to leave a specific sum of money, your estate, a percentage of your estate or a particular item or asset.
It can also reduce the amount of inheritance tax paid by your estate. For many of us, the most generous act of giving is by way of a bequest to a favoured Charity. This is your means of saying, “You’re doing amazing work” when you are no longer able to say it for yourself.
We are very grateful for the support we receive from the following organisations
Your generosity could change the future for many unwanted and abandoned pets. There are many ways that you can help us – by leaving a legacy, sponsorship, donating or giving us your time. Gifting a legacy donation is simple and we can support you along the way. If you have any questions, please do contact us at:
