Welcome to the RSPCA Preston & District Branch


support centre

Please continue to help us create a safe haven in 2012. Rehoming figures have taken a fall in 2011 but there are still many animals that desperately need our help. Promoting kindness and responsible ownership, preventing cruelty and caring for animals in need comes at a huge cost to the branch. This work can only continue with the genorisity and help of you the general public. As you will be fully aware the cost of living has increased significantly and continues to do so and this is true at the centre with ever increasing overheads. Please donate in any way you can to help us continue to care for and rehome these animals.

Unfortunately it is no longer cost effective for the centre to operate a late night on Thursdays. For all other available times you can visit the centre please see our opening times.

Adopt An Animal Preston Animal CentreRSPCA 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 and cannot be rehomed. Our main goal is to take in unwanted animals and find them new 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.

foster

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!
