The idea is that if the RSPCA have not acted by now, we need a huge presence there...Michelle and I or anyone else who will...contact all relevant news agencies telling what has happened and that there will be a demo...I know it's a bit in your face but I think it's needed...hopefully will push RSPCA into acting NOW rather than when it's too late
My phone number is 07513626282....it's public knowledge anyway so no worries about posting it here
willing to help any that need a home for a few months while recuperation is needed ... im in Essex .... if i can do anything please feel free to contact me
Personally, if the RSPCA don't arrive tomorrow I'm all for offering the owner a new home for the pair of them. I recon JM07 could strike a good deal with them. I'm sure plenty of us would add pennies to the pot...
It's legal and TBH the owner might be glad of £200 each to get them off their hands?
I am in Gedney, have loads of different size rugs if needed, cant go up there tonight myself (have a horse down with colic) but more than happy for someone to come and get some.
I would happily drive the 3hours and collect one but I have no trailer or box sadly. Am ready to take one on though and I am deadly serious, short term, long term, permanent anything to help. Wish I could offer a secure home to more than one but I just haven't the space sadly
Andy well done for trying to help, I have never seen animals in such a state in my life.
If you don't get a response quickly please pm me, the local World horse welfare Inspector for the South West are lives in our village, and I will take the pics down to him tomorrow myself.
He is usually red hot with neglect cases so I am sure he will get them sorted by informing his colleagues in your area..
Poor, poor horses, incidentally please don't go off half cock with demos etc, that is not the way to proceed, if you do the owners will likely move the horses and they won't get help...
Let WHW take over, they will impound them and give them the best care, please ignore any rescue organisations however well intentioned.

I don't think offering money is the right thing to do. Obviously these horses need urgent care BUT nobody knows why they are in this state. Is it someone who hasn't any money OR someone who would sell the horses for £300, and buy some more, and so the cycle repeats and nobody gets prosecuted

Why is it all sorts of "newbies" pop up every time there is a neglect thread?

Its free country, I was here before but lost my details, so resigned up, I was told about this post about someone, them horses are in a awful state, why can't new members reply?
I'm sure between us we can sort something if needed. I can tow but have nothing to tow with (typically).
I honestly guys am deadly serious, when these chaps get removed (tomorrow I hope) I am all ready to take one on. I am used to horses in this kind of condition and as I have said I work closely with EMW so am literally ready and waiting. I don't want to post my contact number on here but will happily PM it.

I wasnt having a go, take a chill pill... it was just an observation!
I wondered if this thread had been mention on other forums prompting a influx of newbies......
Am I the only one thats thinking it's a little odd that horses in such a poor state are in a field that isn't bare? The "rat poison has been laid here" sign is really worrying to me, if the RSPCA have seen them a month ago then they have gone downhill very rapidly. Could it be possible some idiots have put poison down and it is poisoning them?
