My Lovely Horse Rescue -who give animals human names to help rehome them

Описание: My Lovely Horse Rescue has come up with the idea of giving animals human names to help get them rehomed.

The non-profit organisation helps rescue, rehabilitate and rehome unwanted, neglected and abused animals such as horses, pigs, goats, cats, and dogs.

The charity was set up in 2011 when co-founders Cathy Davey, Martina Kenny and her sister Deborah rescued two horses in Dublin.

The trio had no intentions of starting an animal rescue at the time but were simply animal lovers who just saw a problem in Dublin and felt that they might be able to help one or two horses.

The Devine Comedy's Neil Hannon, who wrote My Lovely Horse for Father Ted, is Cathy's partner so the organisation decided to use the song title for its name.

Ten years on the trio never expected to turn into something as big as it is and since the charity's launch they have helped cater to thousands of horses. They also look after roughly 550 animals at any time.
