Many adorable animals, such as kittens, cats, puppies and dogs, are in need of new loving homes in Liverpool and Merseyside.
While the RSPCA’s Liverpool branch has now closed, dozens of adorable animals are available to adopt in and around Liverpool, through the Wirral and Chester rescue centre (Wallasey) or the Southport, Ormskirk and District centre (Halsall).
A variety of dog breeds and cats of different ages are available, and they would love the chance to find a permanent place to call home as soon as possible and start their happy new lives.
Below are 20 delightful cats and dogs up for adoption in Merseyside. Take a look at the gallery and see if you could provide them with a fresh start. For more information about how to adopt, visit https://www.rspca.org.uk/.

17. Maple
Maple is looking for a home with Pancake and Syrup. The RSPCA states they are between three to six months old. Not much is known about their background other than the outside is all they've known. This shows as they've been very reserved in their behaviour and not wanted any social interaction so far. Human interaction isn't anything they've experienced, which is why they RSPCA has put them as outdoor cats. They are based at the Wirral & Chester branch. | RSPCA
