Looking to adopt a cat or dog in 2026? Look no further as tons of lovely animals need forever homes in Liverpool and Merseyside.
The RSPCA’s Liverpool venue is no longer operating, but dozens of adorable animals are available to foster or adopt in and around Merseyside, through the Wirral and Chester rescue centre (Wallasey), the Southport, Ormskirk and District centre (Halsall) or the Warrington, Halton & St Helens centre (Warrington).
A whole host of dogs 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 13 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, click here.

1. Prince
Prince will need to rehomed to be the only cat in the home as well as no dogs. He can be rehomed with cat-savvy children of the age 5 and above. | RSPCA

2. Carol - Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Carol is a three-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Carol is looking for a home where she won’t be left alone for long periods, as people are her comfort and joy. She would be best suited as the only pet in the home and is looking for a family with dog-savvy children aged 12 and over who can understand her need for space, kindness, and reassurance. | RSPCA Southport

3. Blueberry
Blueberry is a bold, brilliant black-and-white girl with a personality as vibrant as her name. At 10 years old, she is confident, cheeky, and full of spark, making her an entertaining and memorable companion. | RSPCA

4. Callie - American Bulldog
Callie is an American Bulldog. Callie is not used to being home alone, so will likely need some training and some more confidence building so that she is happy and comfortable with being left alone for longer periods. She also really enjoys her walks offsite and walks nicely on lead, but can at times pull a little when she gets excited. | RSPCA
