Pet of the Week

Cinderella

Cinderella is a beautiful and inquisitive 10 ½ year old female Shetland pony. She came to the RSPCA in 2006 as a cruelty case with severe hoof deformity and laminitis. While she is in great health these days (in fact she could even lose a few kilos), her hooves will always need very regular special care to prevent lameness.

Although her ‘glass slipper’ wearing days may be numbered, Cinderella still holds out hope that a handsome prince (or princess) will whisk her away, to live happily ever after...

Cinderella is not suitable as a child’s pony as she is not fit for riding due to her history of hoof problems; however she has a lovely nature and will make a great companion. She will also require a property check before going to her ‘forever home’ to ensure she is suited to your family.

If you are interested in offering Cinderella a new home, please visit adoptapet.com.au for more details. The Fairfield Shelter is open 9am-6pm Monday through Sunday
