The nine pets found in a terrible condition after their owner died have started to be rehomed.
Ravenswood Pet Rescue, based in Wisbech, saved eight dogs, two of which were barely alive, and one cat in May.
They were found alongside 26 other dogs which had already died.
The charity posts regular updates on the rescued animals – known as the “Miracle 9” - on its Facebook page and has recently revealed some are now happily settling in their “forever homes”.

In one of their most recent posts, they said two of the rescues had made “the most amazing recovery and are now ready for their new home together”.
They are called Mr and Mrs Chi-hoo Pincher and the charity insist the pair cannot be separated.

Both are around two years old and can live with cats. The female is a miniature pincher and the male is a chihuahua cross mini pincher.
A spokesperson said: “They adore each other and they are good with other dogs, but we feel after their horrendous ordeal we want them to be the only dogs in the home.
