Lance Hebditch arrives at Wolverhampton Magistrates Court. See NTI story NTICRUEL. Two people who ran a charity pet rescue service in Wolverhampton kept the animals in “filthy” and “disgusting” conditions a court heard. Jean Gibbons and Lance Hebditch – ran Wulfrun Destitute Pets in Whitmore Reans, Wolverhampton. The pair have now been barred from looking after animals after they appeared at Wolverhampton Magistrates Court. They looked after dogs, a cockatoo and a rabbit among other animals. The court heard that a visit from RSPCA inspectors in November 2011 – two months after Gibbons had refused them entry onto the premises without a warrant – found animals were being mistreated. Gibbons had pleaded guilty to eight charges relating to poor care of the animals while Hebditch admitted five.
