Companion Animal Centre Cambridge Campus

It is with the deepest sadness that we tell you of the passing of Boris. A sudden health issue has meant we had to make the hardest decision to let our beautiful boy run free 🌈 😔. He will be greatly missed by staff and students. R.I.P our gentle giant 🐐.

Good evening we wanted to let everyone know about Maria, who was rehomed to a member of staff for retirement back in 2020. She sadly had to be put to sleep today. She had been very spoilt and we know she was loved very much by many whilst at the college. R.I.P sweet girl 😿❤️
