Here is a selection of animals from the RSPCA branches in Essex and the affiliated Danaher Animal House who are looking for a forever home.
There are some animals from the Essex South, Southend and District branch, Essex South West branch and the Danaher Animal Home.
If you think you would be able to rehome one of them go to either the Essex South, Southend and District branch, Essex South West branch or the Danaher Animal Home website for details.
You can also donate to the charities to help it carry on its rescue work at the same websites.
Drummer
Gender – Male
Age – Six years old
Breed – Lurcher
Colour – Brown
Drummer is a Lurcher crossbreed who was found as a stray, so the RSPCA has no history on him.
However, he is described as having a “kind and friendly disposition” which has made him a favourite amongst staff.
Drummer loves meeting new people and encountering other dogs on walks, but due to being a sighthound, he must be kept on a lead at all times, as the chase of birds and small furries might become too much fun.
Potential adopters must be aware that he might not have lived in a home before so could take a while to get used to household objects and may need a refresher course in toilet training.

Sky
Gender - Female
Age – One year old
Breed – Domestic shorthair crossbreed
Colour – Tabby
Sky is described as a “super friendly” cat who came into the RSPCA pregnant and is now looking after her kittens.
She would prefer to be the only cat in the home, could live with children of secondary school age and would need to be able to go outside and explore.
A note is made that she will not be able to be rehomed until she has weaned the kittens and been spayed (likely end of March).

Asia
Gender - Female
Age - 2.5 years old
Breed - Belgian Shepherd Crossbreed
Colour - Tan and Black
Asia is a dog that was rescued by Braintree Council in December 2021 and is still underway in being assessed.
It is recommended that she go to a home with very experienced owners as advanced training is required for behavioural issues as she is under-socialised.

Star and Twinkle
Gender - Male
Age - 3.5 years old
Breed - American Guinea Pig
Colour - Brown and White
Star and Twinkle are brother guinea pigs who arrived at Danaher Animal Home after their previous owner was no longer able to provide them with the care and attention they needed.
They are looking for a home where they are shown patience and understanding to allow them to gain in confidence as at the moment they are very nervous about being handled.
