As a rescue working in the community, we have seen a large increase in the number of animals needing our help, and we are not alone. Rescue centres all across the UK are struggling to make space for the number of animals being neglected, abandoned or abused.
Our mission is to ensure that animals needing our support, have got a safe space to be. Therefore, we are launching a fostering campaign! We are searching for like-minded animal lovers, who can help us in our efforts.
In 2023, the RSPCA has reported a 24% increase in the number of pets abandoned.
There has also been a whopping 72% rise in the number of households with pets, searching how to give up their animal.
"I placed my puppy into the care of the team at the Cotswold Dogs & Cats home when I had to flee my home to enter a women's refuge.
I was reassured her care needs would be met, and one weight was lifted from my shoulders instantly."
With your help, we can offer a safe space to the most vulnerable animals in our community. These might be dogs, cats and small furries:
-Brought to us by the RSPCA. These are often animals who have suffered abandonment, neglect or abuse.
-Whose families are going through life-changing events meaning they are temporarily unable to care for their pet.
