Meet Poppy, a gorgeous (but slightly spicy!) three-year-old tortie and white domestic shorthair. She had quite a horrendous ordeal before ending up in RSPCA care. This poor girl was involved in a traffic accident and suffered a broken jaw. She is a real adventurer, loves climbing, chasing and watching the wildlife out the back of her pod. She’s also cheeky, helping herself to the biscuits on the food trolley, and peeping into other cats’ pods! She would prefer an-adult only household.

Meet handsome three-year-old ginger boy Harry. He loves nothing more than a good fuss and a snooze on his bed. As much as his confidence has grown he can still be overwhelmed with sudden movements/ noises which can cause him to run and hide so it would be best for him to be the only animal in the home and he could live with children aged 16+

Meet Charming boy Wilson. He was removed from a house with over 200 other dogs and has taken some time to build trust with his handlers. Wilson is still nervous about life, especially loud and sudden noises which can be a lot for him. Wilson would need adopters who understand that he has been through a lot and will need extra time and care to settle and build that bond. He would suit an adult-only household.

Duke was picked up by inspectors after being abandoned in a property. It is believed he spent a lot of time outside and was used to fending for himself and getting a meal wherever he could. Because of this, he is very independent and can be snatchy around food. He will do his best to get hold of food whenever he can, including checking out the contents of your kitchen cupboards! Any potential adopters will likely need to find a way to manage this. This stunning Bengal boy enjoys attention and laps up all the fuss he can get. He would prefer an adult-only household.
