This week, we pay tribute to Cupcake, our retired Shetland pony, who died peacefully in January, aged 30.
Cupcake had an amazing life with us after we rescued him 12 years ago. He responded to good care and played an active role at Shetland Pony Club, giving pleasure to many children over the years. Cupcake also starred in several episodes of Shetland Pony Club TV.
We hope you enjoy our tribute to this very special Shetland pony – “The Happy Tale of Cupcake” which tells his story really well.
Cupcake’s last public appearance was attending a Nativity play in Oxshott on Christmas Eve 2016, where he behaved impeccably, with Madeleine.
