Minxy the little fallabella needs our help

from what i understand foaly was in the back of a car! She didnt sell any raffle tickets today at the pet shop as they said NO,, but there are all sorts of stories going around locally, apparently was in a dog bed at a car boot sale last week to raise awareness. Owner did tell somebody that is going to a large equine specialist next week... dont think its in cornwall so ther will be more to come on this story I should imagine :-(

She is taking to an equine hospital in Hampshire apparently :(.

He really needs to be put to sleep :(.
 
Why do I insist on not only clicking on a DM link but then reading the comments? In the hope that sense might outweigh their status quo? Why have I done that when it's so bad for blood pressure? Why are there just SO MANY STUPID people? I don't understand. For the love of God, while I'm one to support everything where it stands a chance of benefit, the poor little thing needs PTS and the owner needs investigating. Horrible, horrible, stupid and nasty with completely unthinking and moronic supporters.
 
The five freedoms, according to the RSPCA:



The RSPCA Five Freedoms for Animals are:

1. Freedom from Hunger and Thirst
By ready access to fresh water and a diet to maintain full health and vigour.

2. Freedom from Discomfort
By providing an appropriate environment including shelter and a comfortable resting area.

3. Freedom from Pain, Injury or Disease
By prevention by rapid diagnosis and treatment.

4. Freedom to Express Normal Behaviour
By providing sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal's own kind.

5. Freedom from Fear and Distress
By ensuring conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering.

According to that list, there are numerous causes for concern in this ponys case. Poor little mite. :(
 
I am the kind of person who would pass over a few pounds to a charity outside a supermarket or wherever because at the end of the day a few pounds is a bottle of wine. However, now given the owners history (and I don't give a damn if I am being judgemental) I hope people are not handing over one penny. The only being in all of this I feel sorry for is that little foal.

And she's got the pony in that house????? I'm speechless that no authorities have intervened as yet........ someone should have called for them when she was seen there this afternoon with it in her car. The pet shop at the very least. I can't believe what she's doing, I really can't. :confused::mad:

Fairynuff, that's awful - there's only one they PTS the same day. At least I hope they PTS, and didn't let them die from respiratory problems.....
 
Do you think its been microchipped and got a passport?

Why isn't it with its natural Mother? At ten weeks old surely it should still be with her even if it was born prematurely. I didn't think foals survived if born that early.

I was abit confused by the pictures, in one its being fed an apple and then its being given a bottle.

If its going to a specialist equine hospital in Hampshire presumably thats Liphook who hopefully will tell her the kindest thing is to pts.

Not taking anything away from this poor little chap but 4 and 5 are broken in most livery yards! :eek:
 
I made the mistake not only of clicking on the hoset heaven link, but going to page 2. Poor moonshadow - kept alive for nearly 2 months. What on earth are these people thinking?
 
I was surprised at forst to see that its not coming up to Langford but on thinking about it they may well have refused to have anything to do with it. Liphook are a sensible bunch, hopefully it will be the last journey this poor little thing has to make.

This couple need a ban on animal keeping full stop.

Oh and where is the mare???
 
the mare, did you not watch the itv link? shes in the back garden in a shed behind an old door.........

I really hope that she is finally considering her pony's welfare, although I fail to see why others should pay her transportation costs, considering it was driven in a car before!
 
and now also this has been posted......

minxy morris should be put to sleep
by Minxy Morris on Sunday, 10 July 2011 at 14:15


having read the comments on minxy morris should be put to sleep, we would like to make people aware that if we are instructed by a professional vet that the long term prognosis for minxy is not tenable then rest assured the right thing will be done as for judgmental comments relating to world records fame and such, we found ourselves in a difficult situation and are trying our best to do what is right and fair the funding up to last week has come out of our own pockets and any monies donated are all accountant controlled and traceable no monies have been received for publicity or stories etc we are not professionally trained people and if people have the knowledge dont judge us help us to achieve our goal of giving this horse the oppurtunity to be assessed by equine professionals before any decisions are made. as for pain and suffering minx is not on any pain control medication as it is not deemed necessary minx is not being hand reared. we will be making our decisions once we have visited the specialist this week thankyou

exactly what i was thinking, no doubt someone has found themself some kind of agent to speak for them. im surprised max clifford hasnt popped his head up yet, she sounds just his type of client.
 
I would be amazed if it was her. I am currently trying to put the masses point across without causing a row on this latest update. It seems to be working at the moment as I havnt yet been blocked or the comments deleted. Its pretty hard to keep my cool though, I'm the only one left amongst a load of her supporters!
 
my friend request hasnt been accepted, possibly after I was the first to post on the minxy support page (that has now gone) to say he should be put to sleep!
 
next update
at this point due to fb protocol we are suspending friend requests and messaging via inbox until we have all the facts determining minxs fate thankyou one an all for your attention
 
ha and after my being attacked by others and labelled as someone who should not own animals :rolleyes: the page has posted this on the convo
''at this point i feel i must intervene please take on board our previous statement and do not turn this circumstance into personal judgements of others we will post accordingly with the relevant information when we have it thankyou''
.....yep so not her!
 
if you look at the pictures posted on Minxy facebook page that the owner has commented on, she clearly isnt updating the page at the moment. Some lovely grammar used..... and cracking spelling

Me and my real mummys stable, Your welcome to pop around for a cuppa and a chat.... I'll put the kettle on ready, "milk and sugar"???

Me befor mummy puts my splints on, Because they have to be changed twice a day, BOARING!!!! Well at least i can run and play with them on...

Oops dont fink mummys dog aint very happy with me i've just nicked her bed.... Shes looking at me funny.... Quick i'll pretend im asleep, That should do it.....LOL!!!!!
 
oooh and now refunds are being offered!!!

Minxy Morris
if anyone who has made a donation feels that they were not fully informed would like their donation returned please instruct us and we will gladly do so
 
whoever is posting now just used 'ergo' in the correct context! It's certainly not her. I would imagine that all the complaints all over the shop have prompted them to be advised to stop collecting and the page is being updated under solicitors instruction.
