Thank you for all your caring work
Founded in August 2018, we are a foster-based dog and cat rehoming rescue. We work tirelessly to rescue and rehome animals in need.
We were awarded charitable status in August 2019, and our Registered Charity number is 1184755.
We work predominantly within the UK and take in dogs and cats where the current home can no longer care for them, or where the guardian has passed away and the animal no longer has somewhere to live. We are hugely reliant on the generosity of fellow animal lovers to ensure that our charity is a success.
At Bekind Rescue, animal welfare is at the heart of everything that we do. We believe that all animals deserve our compassion and consideration, and we always strive without discrimination to do everything within our power to help an animal in need. We believe in the importance of working with our fosters and adopters to provide high quality and knowledgeable support using kind and reward-based methods.
As well as rescuing and rehoming, we aim respectfully to educate others and promote high standards of welfare wherever we go.
We are an Approved Rescue with Pet Professional Network as well as KAD - Kids Around Dogs.
Our trustees are certified dog trainers and/or behaviourists and continue to learn and educate themselves using force free, kind methods so that we can help out fosters and adopters alike. We never lose contact and provide full lifetime support and back up for all our animals.
Our education provider, The DoGenius Institute, provides us with inspirational & ethical education.
All of the BeKind team are volunteers and ALL money donated goes directly to helping the animals in our care. We aim to be as financially transparent as possible so that our supporters can see exactly where their kind donations are going.
All donations, however big or small, will be very gratefully received.
All members of the BeKind team own or foster rescue dogs and/or cats ourselves and we provide our foster families with full support and advice where necessary, as well as covering vet bills while the animal is in foster care. We are always looking for likeminded fosters to join our team.
If you are interested in getting a new addition to your family, please complete an adoption form which can be found in the 'ADOPTION' section.
There are many other ways you can help BeKind - perhaps you would like to create a fundraiser on our behalf, tell your friends about us or simply share our page? Maybe you would like to become a home checker for your area? We would love to hear from you. And in due course we hope that many of you will consider fostering or adopting a Bekind Rescue animal.
Our beautiful girl Pippa went in for what should have been a routine spay on 8th April 2024. As she is an older lady we had many discussions about this but we felt that she has had enough of having to deal with seasons every 6 months. She had quite a behavioural change on her last season and although we cant say for sure how she was feeling, we don't think she was feeling too great! We want her time now to be free from anything that would cause her any distress.
Things for poor Pips were not so straight forward. Pippa had some mammary tumours that had to be removed and also a hernia. Although her bloods were clear and x-rays showed nothing sinister at the time, there was positive results for cancer in the tumours. Not the news we wanted to hear as we have no idea how long she has had them, or if the cancer has spread at all.
Pippa has made a full recovery from her operation and is back to being a cheeky waggy tailed girl. We need to monitor her and she is to go back in 6 months time for a check over. She has started on Librella and has additional pain relief when needed as she isn't a spring chicken any more and her back legs aren't at their best. You wouldn't think so the way she bounds about and seeing her so happy with her wonderful humans.
We now have an outstanding balance to pay to the vet and we really need your help to raise funds.
