Captured by pet photographer Rhian Gruffydd, the exhibition features animals currently in Mayhew’s care; including Beano, a lively and affectionate dog who brings a smile to everyone’s face. Beano was a stray, but his difficult start in life has not diminished his capacity for love whatsoever – he adores human companionship, particularly if you’re throwing his favourite rubber ball. After dental treatment from Mayhew vets – not to mention countless hugs and energetic football games with the animal carers – Beano is ready to find the person or family that will give him love for life.

Another is Slippers the cat, who arrived at Mayhew after tenants moving into a new flat found an open cat carrier in the garden. Slippers was sheltering inside, with a note attached saying, “This is a black and white cat, she is very friendly, please don’t throw it away”. They brought her straight to Mayhew, where she was assessed by the expert vet team and received lots of TLC from the animal care team. Slippers has been at Mayhew for a number of months, and we are doing all we can to find her a loving home.
