A lady from BHS has been workiing to get all the horses left on the marsh some help. All have kept themselves safe from the tide. Hopefully some action will be taken today. Will post when I know more.

i found two abondoned colts going into my local town once police said aint their problem fair enough they aint horsey. so called rspca who said aint our problem as it out of hours... it was 8pm seeing as they say they have a 24hour service :/ lol

i found redwings extreemly helpful give them a call and they can tell you the next steps on what should be done... something of if the animal isnt claimed after a number of days you have ownership. i cant remember

is it true that horses can manage on salt water? none of them have access to fresh water unless from rainy puddles and at the moment tides have been up so any water will have salt in it

For anyone who has shown an interest in this thread here is an update.....
4 horses in total 'appeared' on the marsh- one filly on her own on land which is owned by council/WWT and 3 at the old butts firing range- a very young foal, a yearling and a tethered mare.The council, police and RSPCA believe they know who owns all the horses and he has been asked to move them ( but hasn't).Someone untethered the mare and all 3 moved off... they have found their way onto the Delta Lakes site where they are wandering about. Because the filly is not roaming/ straying causing damage she is not deemed a problem for the council to seize, and because she is not starving to death The RSPCA wont do anything...until maybe she is at risk again from the next high tide later this month.

Oh FFS, why won't anyone do anything until the poor things are injured, suffering or half dead? The owner obviously couldn't give a damn about them. Shouldn't have horses Have you tried World Horse Welfare? Sometimes they are a little more pro-active.

I know it is absolutely infuriating....as you say the owner doesn't give a s**t and everyone else passes the buck... they can't do anything because the horse isn't endangering anyone or isn't starved or neglected enough. A volunteer from the BHS has been trying to get something done and she has contacts with WHW so something may get done, but am not especially hopeful at the moment.

Boycott that shower of money grabbing shyt

don't worry i have!

It makes me so ANGRY!!!mad: I will give you all an example there is a woman in Lincolsnhire who is on remand at the min and due back at court this month. Quite a few horses suffered in her care and a lot more were neglected and abused. I reported this woman 3 years ago ( she had about 20 horses in a field and half of them where very underweight no water of hay)and the ILPH was going in then she upped sticks, she had been reported before that and they was going in but she had upped sticks again. Apparently she had been reported lots of times then it takes horses to die! I wish the laws would change to give our horse charities more power so that when a horse is like the ones mentioned above they can take them She has pleaded guilty so from what I can gather a lot of the charges will be dropped Woman click on this link for the paper report
