Residents
HULA animal rescue provides long term care to a variety of farm animals, ponies, a donkey as well as various goats, geese, ducks and chickens.
Meet some of our permanent residents below.
Suzi & Sara
Suzi and Sara arrived at HULA in April 2008 aged 4 weeks and are settling in well to their new home.
Samson
Samson is also a new member of the resident family and came to live at HULA in April 2008 at just one week old.
...and now just look how he's grown nearly 6 months later!
Chloe
Chloe is a white and black pot bellied Pig who arrived at the HULA Sanctuary in 2003. She loves to trot around and go into the garden to root about and see what she can find. She has a particular fondness for fresh lettuce and big juicy apples.
Chloe also loves to lay in the sunshine and snooze the afternoon away!
Carlo
Carlo the donkey helping out with some office duties!
Fonzi
A truly unique character. Friendly, sociable, loving and silly. Fonzi has resided at HULA for nearly 10 years and has never failed to amaze the staff and the public with his charms and stunts. Just like all goats Fonzi loves his food and will wander into Reception when he can to try out anything he can find - paper, plants, carrier bags - nothing is safe! A particular favourite is custard creams although he has to be careful as too many are not good for his teeth!
Sapphire
Sapphire arrived in January 2000 and is a blue-coloured Shorthorn heifer who lives at HULA's Sanctuary with Steel our Channel Island (Jersey) steer. Both were rescued by HULA when they were unclaimed strays at just over 3 months old. Their origins are steeped in mystery - apparently they were found wandering the streets of North London by a policeman!
Bazza the Goose
Bazza is a white Embden goose who came to HULA in 2005 when he was just 17 weeks old. He is a superb guard goose - at his previous house he apparently had a penchant for postmen!
We know Bazza is a bit of a rebel but he is only doing what comes naturally and is a real character.

Stumpy the Shetland Pony
Stumpy is the smallest of HULA's Shetland ponies measuring only 8.3 hands at the withers. She was born at HULA in 1987 from the original rescued ponies HULA took in when we first opened in 1976. All of our ponies, even though well cared for, lead fairly independent lives. Because they have had limited human contact they can sometimes be a little bit nervous at times, but Stumpy is the most confident one and she can be quite cheeky at times.
Churchill & Duckie
Duckie (Indian Runner breed) was lonely in her old home because sadly a fox had taken her companion and she was brought to HULA to make new friends in December 2007. Churchill (Khaki Campbell breed) had been at HULA since December 2003 and was delighted to have Duckie join him. They are now very close friends.
