The local community in Rye is deeply distressed by the inhumane conditions that two rescue ponies, a donkey, and a mule are currently enduring at West Undercliff in Rye. These innocent creatures who have been rescued previously have been left to suffer in a wet muddy field with no grass or shelter. They lack access to fresh water and food. Tragically, two of these animals are sick and desperately require veterinary attention.

The owner seems to have abandoned them without any regard for their welfare. It is heartbreaking that these animals are being subjected to such neglectful treatment when they should be receiving care and compassion.

This situation is not just an isolated incident but reflects a broader issue of animal neglect across the UK. According to the RSPCA's annual statistics report 2019 (source: RSPCA), there were 102,900 complaints of animal cruelty received by them in England alone.

We need your help urgently! We must put pressure on local animal welfare charities in Rye to intervene immediately before it's too late for these helpless creatures. Their lives depend on us taking swift action now!

Please sign this petition today! Let's ensure that these ponies, mules, and donkeys are rehomed promptly into safe environments where they will receive proper care. Together we can make sure they get the medical attention they so desperately need!
