Adopt An Animal Preston Animal Centre RSPCA Preston & District Branch is a separate Registered Charity. We get no funding from the national society, the Government or other sources. We rely on the generosity of the local people. It currently costs over £400,000 anually to run the Animal Centre. We are licensed to hold dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals.

We take in stray dogs from the Council, unwanted animals from the public and cruelty cases from the Inspectorate. We have a non-destruction policy, unless the animal is extremely sick or dangerous. Our main goal is to take in unwanted animals and find them permanent loving homes; this is sometimes very difficult as they may already have behavioural problems, but we work very hard to address these before the animals leave us. Please remember it takes time for any animal to settle in to its new home, so please be patient. If you have any questions regarding your adopted pet or need additional advice please ring us. We will always try to help.

See the Friends and Supporters of the RSPCA Preston & District Branch>>>

Other ways in which you can help are by donating items that we can use either at the centre, for the animals in our care, or donating items that we may use in other ways:

Blankets and thin bedding
Towels
Toys
Treats
*Good quality items we could use for prizes at fairs* (in need of at the moment)

Animals like Polly are in desperate need of a new home, can you help..........

The majority of animals that come to the centre spend their time in the kennels or cattery, but some special cases need the extra care and attention of a one-to-one foster home. We are looking for fosterers to give a temporary home to a cat or dog for various reasons; they may have just had an operation and need quiet rest to recover, mothers with new-born kittens/pups, or especially animals that are very stressed being in an animal centre environment and not coping well. Potential Fosterers will have a home visit and be supported by the Centre. Food is paid for and provided by the Centre and a free vet service is also provided.

Fostering is only temporary but is still a big commitment, if you think you could offer a foster home to an animal in need please contact the centre!
