We are delighted to share the Winter 2025 edition of the Windyway Trust newsletter! It has been an incredible year of milestones and memories, and we invite our wonderful community to download the full PDF to catch up on everything happening at the rescue.
Two Decades of Making a Difference
This year, Windyway Trust proudly celebrated its 20th birthday. From humble beginnings, we have grown to operate three shops in Macclesfield, a pet food bank, and a dedicated administration and storage centre. None of this would be possible without our tireless volunteers, staff, and trustees who help us run fundraising events every single month.
Heartwarming ‘Happy Endings’
There is nothing we love more than seeing our animals find their forever families. In this issue, you can read the touching stories of:
- Magic: A tiny, delicate cat who has found her confidence and a warm lap to curl up on.
- Biscuit and Butterscotch: Two sociable rabbits who are now enjoying playful runs around their new home.
- Bess and Minnie: Two lucky dogs who have “claimed the sofa” and brought immense joy to their new owners.
Could You Provide a Forever Home?
We have several beautiful animals currently waiting for their second chance. Inside the newsletter, you will find profiles for:
- Barry: A gentle Bedlington Whippet Cross who loves human company.
- Errol: A happy and affectionate Shar Pei-type pup.
- Missey and Jasmine: Two sweet young cats looking for family homes.
- Judy and Liza: A devoted mother-and-daughter cat duo who need to stay together.
- Hoppy and Nibbles: Two charming rabbits hoping for spacious new homes.
