Need to rehome your cat or dog?

If you can no longer keep your pet, a rescue near you is the best place to start. Search for the nearest ones below, then contact them through their own websites.

Before you get in touch

  • Rescues are often full and many keep a waiting list, so contact a few as early as you can.
  • Each rescue has its own way of taking animals in. Their websites say how, and some ask you to fill in a form first.
  • Have your pet's age, sex, neutering, vaccination and microchip details to hand, and say how they get on with children and other animals.
  • Please never abandon a pet. A rescue can help, even when it can't take your pet in straight away.

This list may not include every rescue near you.
