Hopes is fully sponsored, but is still available for adoption and fostering. If you are interested in sponsoring another animal in need, please check back to the animals section.
H opes could barely walk when a kind person saw him struggling by the roadside and brought him to us, where we quickly discovered the reason behind his limp: a severe fracture, neglected for far too long.
Orthopaedic surgery followed, and slowly, with time, love, and patience, he began to heal. However, with no guardian to claim him and no safe place to return him to, we decided Hopes would never be abandoned again and would live out his days in quiet dignity at our sanctuary. With his favourite companion, Sam, another gentle spirit, he is at peace with the world, and the two can often be found resting in the shade, watching the world go by.
He may never leave the sanctuary, but you can still change Hopes’ world by virtually adopting him or donating towards his care.
All animals adopted from HAS are or will be sterilised for free at the ABC and Rescue Centre. It is mandatory and entirely free of cost for the adopter. Hopes's sterilised.

Adoption means taking responsibility for the animal, and providing the animal with their forever home. HAS offers extensive support for the adopter, and free lifetime treatment for the animal.
Adopt
Fostering means nurturing the animal in your premises until they can move to a permanent home. This will usually take a few weeks. HAS is offering extended support throughout the foster period.
Foster
The procedure for adopting or fostering an animal from HAS varies from animal to animal and from person to person, but the following steps are always involved one way or the other.
1. Let us know of your interest in whichever way suits you the best.
2. We will arrange for you to visit your preferred animal at their home at the Sanctuary or ABC and Rescue Centre.
3. We will discuss in person with you the practicalities of adopting/fostering an animal.
4. You will ensure that all your family members affected by the adoption/fostering are in agreement, and that they will do their best to promote the interests of the animal.
5. We will do a house visit to ensure that you and the animal would be comfortable living with each other there. If necessary, we will advise on ways to adjust the living quarters to suit the animal.
6. You will pick up the animal from its present location, or, if possible, we will drop the animal at your house.
7. You will bring the animal to the ABC and Rescue Centre for yearly free health check-ups that include vaccinations.
8. Should you experience any problems at any point in the life of the animal, you should never hesitate in contacting HAS.
