A whole host of dog and cats of different ages are currently living at the centres and they would love the chance to find a permanent place to call home as soon as possible.
Below are 15 lovely cats and dogs up for adoption in and around Merseyside. Take a look at the gallery and see if you could provide them with a loving home. For more information about how to adopt, visit https://www.rspca.org.uk/.
1. Thelma and Louis
Thelma and Louis are a bonded brother-and-sister duo searching for a calm, understanding forever home where they can finally feel safe enough to bloom. These two are gentle souls who have had a cautious start to life and will need adopters who truly appreciate that trust is something to be earned slowly and respectfully. | RSPCA
2. Ben - Terrier crossbreed
Ben is an 8-year-old Terrier cross who has been part of a cruelty case for nearly 3 years. He has now finally been signed over for rehoming and time has come for Ben to be able to find his forever home that will treat him with the love he deserves. Ben would be suitable with a family with children of secondary school age and we would consider him going with another confident dog in the home. Ben is not suitable with cats. | RSPCA Wirral & Chester
3. Onyx
Onyx is looking for someone who has some experience with less confident cats. He needs an adult-only home. | RSPCA
4. Ron - Terrier crossbreed
Beautiful Ron is an older distinguished gentleman at the age of 10. Ron was part of a cruelty case that has taken nearly 3 years to conclude, he has now finally been signed over for rehoming. Poor Ron sustained a little cosmetic damage to his jaw in his previous life and as a result he's had a number of teeth removed. This does not affect him or slow him down in any way! Ron would suit someone who will be home most of the day as he deserves to spend the rest of his life being loved with someone by his side. He is fine to be left for short periods and will expect a game of ball on your return. Ron can be a little grumpy old man around other dogs, although he does go on lead walks with other dogs, he would still prefer his own space and therefore RSPCA would not rehome Ron with another dog. | RSPCA Wirral & Chester
