The RSPCA is appealing to find the owner of this pony, who was rescued from Gelligaer Common
A pony has been rescued from Gelligaer and Merthyr Common over concerns for its welfare, sparking an appeal to find its owner.
The chestnut mare was removed from the common on Wednesday January 8 following efforts from the RSPCA and Caerphilly County Borough Council, as well as the Redwings and World Horse Welfare charities.
RSPCA inspector Christine McNeil said: “This pony was taken into possession by Caerphilly County Borough Council under the Animal Welfare Act and was taken into charitable care, where she is now receiving the appropriate veterinary treatment.”
She added: “We don’t know who this mare belongs to so we’re issuing an appeal to help with enquiries.
“Anyone with any first-hand information can contact the RSPCA Inspectorate Appeal Line on 0300 123 8018 and quote 1391242.”
