Scarc and Mahla wasted no time getting into the Halloween spirit at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary.

It wasn’t just Simba who was in hospital this week, our beloved sanctuary, rescue dog, Milo, also paid a trip to Dr Caldwell.

Saham and Shujaa can’t get enough of their catnip sacks, which are kindly made possible by you.

Simba is back with Rey Ayacucho at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary after a stay at Old Chapel Veterinary Clinic and the boys were clearly delighted to see each other today! Inseparable since their rescue by ADI from a small circus cage in Peru eleven years ago, there was a lot of head rubbing, kissing, and nuzzling as the two senior citizens (both over 17 years old) were reunited.

Warming up for some Halloween hijinks, Sun has raced to victory against her sister Moon and claimed the spooky catnip sack. She was just a little quicker on her paws, outsmarting Moon to claim her prize!

Simba has been taken into hospital today to try and establish the cause of nosebleed. At 17 years old, Simba is one of our senior lions at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary, having been rescued with brother Rey Ayacucho (Rey A) from a circus in Peru eleven years ago.

Do you think our ADI Wildlife Sanctuary big cat residents, rescued from circuses and the illegal wildlife pet trade, deserve a treat? Chino, pictured here enjoying his last Halloween, clearly thinks so!

We are saddened to hear of the passing of renowned primatologist and United Nations Messenger of Peace, Jane Goodall PhD, DBE, aged 91, in Los Angeles yesterday.

Dr Caldwell conducted a series of checks last week on Sasha after the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary Resident Welfare Team were slightly concerned that she was leaving some of her food.
