Animal magic at Mais House
Animals from the sheep farm in East Dean paid an afternoon visit to the home - including lambs, rabbits, guinea pigs, geese, chicken, ducks, ferrets, dogs and Woody the donkey.
The residents loved cuddling and stroking the animals while recalling memories of their own pets and farm experiences.
