At The Tree House since January 2013
A tortoise and white kitten with a stumpy tail. She was simply left behind when her uncaring owners moved and was spotted sitting outside the empty house crying for attention by our local ‘animal man’ Milton, and brought to the tree house. We called her ‘Rita’ after his mother.
The Primate Trust was founded by Jo and John Hicks (the same founders of IAR) it provides long term care to orphaned, abused and injured primates. This work is essential due to the loss of natural habitat, human conflict causing an increasing number of injured and orphaned monkeys. Other monkeys are rescued for being illegally kept as pets and for begging, often in appalling conditions.
