Kildare Animal Foundation

Our story is about Troy. We came across this  photo of him from this time last year in the snow.  We have him since April/May 2009 I think everyone  from the shelter  would remember  Troy as he was a handful at the best of times (hence the nickname we gave him, Troyasauris) but he is [...]

We adopted Rico in 2002, he’s still a much loved part of our family and king of the castle! Emma

We rescued Murray from the shelter last April when he was only 10 weeks old! He was found wandering out of a ditch in the pouring rain. We got to see him by chance when we visited the centre because he was already going to another family but for some reason I asked could I [...]

When this fella arrived into the shelter he was wondering the streets and then was involved in an RTA, he was in shock and spent the day and night in the vets, However within a few days he was back to his lively self, barking and causing trouble. He originally was adopted by a wonderful [...]

We adopted Nita in January and she has gone from strength to strength. She is very friendly cat and quickly became part of the family.  Nita has only one eye but this hasn’t hampered her exercise or temperament – she provides us with a lot of amusement by playing with toys and performing acrobatics on her [...]
