Cat of the week: Buzz
Meet Buzz!
Buzz is a sweet domestic short hair with a heart as big as his purrs.
Known affectionately in care as the RSPCA’s “ultimate snuggle specialist”, this gentle boy is at his happiest when he’s curled up in the arms of those he loves.
Whether it’s napping on your lap or keeping you company through the night, Buzz is devoted to being by your side.
At two years old, soft-natured Buzz enjoys playing in the sweetest, most endearing ways. He has mastered the art of “biscuit making” and never misses a chance to show off his kneading skills.
Food is one of his love languages — a tasty treat will always win him over!
Buzz will soon undergo surgery and hopes to recover in the company of a loving forever family.
He is available under the flexible foster to adopt arrangement, giving his new family the chance to bond with him while supporting him through his recovery.
If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and endlessly loving companion, Buzz might just be the feline friend you’ve always dreamed of.

Horse of the week: Pippa
Meet Pippa!
Say hello to Pippa, a graceful thoroughbred mare eager to begin her next chapter in life.
Now her routine health checks are complete and she has the all-clear from the vets, Pippa is searching for somewhere she can thrive with an experienced horse-loving family.
At 11 years old, Pippa is ready to settle down with the right owner by her side.
With a little time, patience, and guidance from an experienced carer willing to retrain her, Pippa could even be convinced to become a riding companion once again.
Pippa is a gentle soul who would love nothing more than a home filled with care, kindness, and of course, plenty of carrots.
In return, she promises to bring warmth, companionship, and the quiet joy only a horse can offer.
Pippa is excited to meet someone willing to give her the second chance at happiness she deserves. Please remember that you’ll need a PIC number to adopt a horse.
Previously featured RSPCA Dog of the Week Cherry has found her forever home, while thoroughbred Gatsby is still looking for his.
