A positive start to the year for RSPCA Doncaster and Rotherham

At the RSPCA Doncaster, Rotherham and District Branch, it has been a very positive start to the year with over 60 animals being adopted from the animal centre. This includes some of the longer stay residents – Piper and Lola – who the team are so pleased have finally found their forever homes.

Bubbles entered their care during the same week as Lola but unfortunately hasn’t found his forever home yet; he has been patiently waiting for over four months. It is often the case that rabbits take longer to adopt, despite them being much smaller than dogs and cats. Rabbits are easy to bond with and make great additions to any home, especially one that wants the loyalty and comfort of a pet without being too chaotic or noisy.

Bubbles is a bright bunny who loves hopping around to explore his surroundings, occasionally stopping to have a quick munch of his kale. He is used to being indoors but would appreciate access to a garden run once the weather gets warmer. Your home could be perfect for him if you already own a female rabbit as he would greatly benefit from the company.

Toby is another resident struggling to find his forever home. He’s a handsome boy, looking for a family he can call his own who will give him the love and attention that he deserves. Despite being a slightly older dog, his age does not slow him down; he loves a good run around and a quick ear scratch.

When an animal becomes available for adoption, it is posted on the branch Facebook page and at www.rspcadoncasterrotherham.org.uk/animals-for-adoption. If you are interested in adopting an animal, please follow the process that is explained on the website.

There are many ways to help RSPCA Doncaster, Rotherham and District Branch with their mission to rehome and rehabilitate animals including volunteering, donating cash or goods, leaving a legacy sponsoring them through their Safe Haven programme and attending events. They have charity shops at Bawtry, Maltby, Rossington and Thorne as well as an eBay shop and Depop. At the Animal Centre, they rehome the animals in their care and have a pet supplies store on site and online for all your requirements. They also provide a pet cremation service and a memorial garden for your beloved pets. To donate £5.00, text ‘RSPCADRB’ to 70085.
