find a rescue pet
Bringing a rescue pet into your life is a big decision, and we’re here to help. Use our RSPCA Find a Pet search to explore animals near you, or learn how adoption and fostering works so you can make the choice that’s right for you.
Every animal deserves safety and comfort, and your decision to rehome could change a life. When you adopt or foster through the RSPCA, you’re giving an animal a second chance, supported by expert care every step of the way.
Our RSPCA rehoming teams work across England and Wales to find safe, suitable homes for animals in our care, matching each pet to the environment that will best support their welfare. Last year, 70 animals a day found new homes, and the fresh start they deserved. Thousands of pets for adoption are cared for by our centres each year, all looking for a second chance. Whether you’re ready to search now or still exploring your options, we’re here to guide you.
Your rehoming options
How to adopt a rescue animal
RSPCA adoption is about making sure every animal goes to the right home. We'll guide you through every step. Learn what to expect, how to apply, and all the ways we support you before and after you welcome your perfect match home.
Could fostering a pet be right for you?
If you’re not ready for a long-term commitment, fostering could be a brilliant way to help. You’ll give an animal a safe, loving space while they wait for their forever home and we’ll provide support, advice and essential costs. Fostering changes lives, especially for animals who need extra time, stability or confidence.
Meet rescued animals at your local RSPCA centre
Many pets for rehoming are cared for by our branches and centres across England and Wales. If you’re looking to rescue a pet near you, visit your local RSPCA centre to see which animals are waiting for a home in your area, learn more about the team supporting them, and get advice tailored to where you live.
