You can train cats to respond to their names, but they must be relaxed to learn.
Thank you for
transforming cats’ lives
Your RSPCA Sponsorship gives cats every kind of care they need. Thanks to you, cats like Auben and Minx can heal, grow in confidence, and learn the skills to thrive in loving homes.
A LETTER FROM CHELSEY RAWLINGS
You make it all possible
I’m Chelsey, an Animal Care Assistant at RSPCA Ashley Heath Animal Centre. My passion is giving every cat the best chance at a happy, healthy life.
Every day, I see how your RSPCA Sponsorship transforms lives. Take Auben and Minx, for example. Auben arrived overweight, and Minx was frightened. Thanks to you, they received the behavioural care and rehabilitation they needed.
Your generosity supports cat pods across all RSPCA centres in England and Wales. You’re transforming lives, one animal at a time. Thank you so much for making this possible.

Care fact
A cat’s purr doesn’t always mean they’re content. It can indicate they’re trying to calm themselves.

PROTECT LOCAL WILDLIFE
Making a hedgehog-friendly garden
As autumn leaves begin to fall, hedgehogs search for cosy havens. With a few simple changes, your garden could be their perfect sanctuary.
You can create hedgehog highways by cutting 13cm x 13cm holes in your fences and leave out fresh water and crumbled dog or cat biscuits. By swapping harmful slug pellets for natural alternatives like crushed eggshells, you’re not just helping hedgehogs. You’re nurturing your local ecosystem. But why stop there? There’s so much more you can do for wildlife in your area. Discover how you can become a true friend to nature as an RSPCA Wildlife Friend.
