Pet Pick Of The Day - Michelle - Female - Dog - DogTrust - Uxbridge, UB9 6JW

This dog is so cute looking, adorable to say the least...
Wish I could home it but sadly no pets allowed where I'm renting :'(

MICHELLE / Setter: English / Female / 1 to 2 Years / Rehoming Centre: London (Harefield)

Direct Link: http://www.dogstrust.org.uk/rehoming/dog/1087624/michelle

Likes and dislikes:
Michelle is a special dog that needs a special home. Michelle is a sensitive girl that can take a while getting to know you, so she is looking for patient owners that have plenty of time on their hands. She can be very scared of people that she doesn't know, which can make her react badly to them, so new owners will need to work with her and her confidence to help her become more settled with strangers. She has come along but needs further socialisation that she can only get in the home. She is looking for a committed forever home to help her complete her confidence and teach her the world is not scary. She is an active girl looking for an active family that already has another dog, as this helps her with her confidence and will hopefully help her to settle. She is looking to live in a rural or semi-rural place as she needs to be away from the hustle and bustle of city/town life. With time and patience Michelle will make a great addition to the family that are prepared for hardwork.

Type of home needed:
Michelle is looking for a home with another confident young dog already present, as this will help her settle in. Limited leaving hours as she needs all training, including housetraining, and needs to bond with her owners.

Pet Pick Of The Day - Sarison - Cat - Celia Hammond - Lewisham, London

SARISON

Sarison is a super friendly male cat about 6 years old.

He has some nerve damage to one of his front legs, he can use it ok but is a bit wonky.

He is seeking an indoor home or a home with a safe, well enclosed garden because of his disability.

To enquire about Sarison or other animals at Lewisham Branch please email lewisham@celiahammond.org or Tel 020 8694 6545


Lewisham Branch 233-235, Lewisham Way, London SE4 1UY

Pet Pick Of The Day - Little Buddha - Cat - Celia Hammond - East London, Canning Town, E16 4HQ

LITTLE BUDDHA - PRIORITY!

Little Buddha arrived with his feral mum when he was really tiny. His mum, Lotus, was untouchable until recently but Little Buddha has always been interested in the world around him and loves people, other cats, dogs and a good stretch. 

As little Bhudda grew and made new friends the bond between him and Lotus became less strong. Lotus started to develop her own relationship with her human feeders and Little Buddha would be quite happy being homed without his mum and visa versa. 

Buddha is still a kitten and he wants to do kitten things so he really wants a home where he can play and have fun. He is an adorable little boy and would put sunshine into anyone's heart and home.


Photo's kindly taken by volunteer Kirsten Priebe http://www.arcreation.org/celia-hammond-animal-trust-photographs.html

Pet Pick Of The Day - Tosh - Dog - RSPCA - East London - UK

(Will fix this post later to include a photo, was unable to post from the PC, thanks)

TOSH
Direct Link: http://www.rspca.org.uk/allaboutanimals/rehoming/petsearch/details/-/Pet/TOSH/ref/98449/rehome/


Type: Dog
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
Colour: Black & White
Age: 9 Years (approx)
Ref: 98449
Reason for re-homing - Owner died - Tosh is available for homing or long term fostering. History - Tosh lived with his owner who was a man in his 60's. When Tosh's owner was hospitalised in March 2013 he placed Tosh in kennels so that he could be looked after. Unfortunately, Tosh's owner has now passed away and Tosh has been placed in the care of the East London RSPCA. Tosh is fed up with being in kennels and needs to have his normal life back. Character - Tosh is very friendly towards people. While he has been in kennels he will bark at other dogs. Tosh is lively and he needs attention. Friends of Tosh's deceased owner say that Tosh will bark at visitors. Homing recommendations -Tosh would suit an owner who has time for him and he could live with older children or cats. He may get along with a female dog but that would have to be tested on a trial basis.

Please call 07949473829 for more information in the evening or weekends.

Pet Pick Of The Day - Ollie - Mouse - RSPCA / Coventry Animal Centre - COVENTRY CV5 9DQ

OLLIE

At a glance

Type: Pet Mammal

Breed: Mouse

Colour: Black and White

Age: 1 Year (approx)

Ref: 34/13

Meet one of our male mice here at the centre. Ollie is a sweet boy who needs a new home. Originally from another centre as he had no luck finding a new home there, came into us for help.

Ollie is a young adult, and needs to be rehomed on his own. Mice can make great pets, as they are fast moving, great acrobats who love to climb and hang from their cage. Daily handling is needed so they become accustom to you and allow you to have play time outside the cage. Mice need gentle handling so adult supervision or older children are ideal. Pop in if you can offer Ollie here a new home!

About Me

Meet our lovely large pair of rabbits Apricot and Blackberry!
This lovely pair are very happy friendly rabbits who like a bit of fuss from their owners but are not too keen on being picked up for the attention and prefer to have all 4 feet on the ground.
They both love hopping around out in their run on the grass, running through tunnels jumping on top of boxes before having a good stretch and a lay down.
We are looking to rehome this lovely pair of bunnies to a home together as they are a very bonded pair and enjoy each other's company.
If you think you can offer this pair a home please speak to a member of staff today!

If you are interested in this gorgeous pair please call the centre ahead of your visit, on 0300 777 1570 . Lines are open from 10.30am - 4pm (apart from Thursdays, when we are closed to the public).

Blue Cross recommends that rabbits are housed in a spacious hutch such as a small shed or Wendy house construction with a fenced around surrounding the hutch to provide a permanent run area.

For this beautiful pair their accommodation should be at least 180cm x 90cm floor space x 90cm tall.

This should contain at least 2 rooms. Ideally the run should be attached to the hutch so the rabbits can choose whether to be in or outdoors. The run should be as spacious as possible to allow the rabbit to hop, jump and have total freedom of movement.

If it is not possible to have the run attached to the hutch remember you would need to provide a shelter and shade for your rabbit.

We'd love for you to come and see us. Visitors are welcome to walk around the equine walkway, cattery and small animal section. However, we operate restricted viewing of the dogs to minimise their stress levels.

Pet For Adoption - Pick Of The Day - Pippa - Cat - AnimalRescue&Care - Richmond Upon Thames Area

From The Link: http://www.animalrescueandcare.org.uk/adoption/adopt-a-cat/

• Sex: Female
• Colour: Black
• Neutered: Yes
• Suitable for: Adult home
• Date Posted: 01/09/13

• Breed: DSH
• Healthcare: Vaccinated
• Microchipped, wormed & fleaed
• Status: Avaliable
• Fostered by: MK

• Pippa is very affectionate and lovely natured cat. Her purr is somewhat mightier than her petite build suggests and is quickly activated by just calling her name or putting out your hand. It’s all about strokes with Pippa and she almost does a somersault when she rolls over for attention. And it’s a pleasure stroking Pippa – her furr is silkily smooth and she lets you know she absolutely adores the attention. She likes to ‘hang-out’ wherever her human family are and when relaxing she likes to come and sit on a lap and sleep.Pippa was originally homed with her brother but unfortunately she was bullied by him, which is why she is looking for a new home where she is the only cat. In the first few weeks of her foster home she was quite jumpy with loud noises and sudden movements but now she has grown in confidence she’s tolerant of noise and activity. She’s happy to receive attention from visitors and would suit an adult home. Pippa has found her voice and can be vocal when she wants to be played with. And she also likes to announce her arrival back in the house after being outside. She enjoys the garden now that she’s settled and despite not liking other cats she still goes outside to chase insects and explore. She’s a wonderful fly catcher inside and out.
  Pippa is still a young cat and loves nothing more to than to play – with balls, feathers and her favourite toy is the lazer light. If you have an adult home with lots of love and attention then Pippa would make a wonderful companion.

Black Cats Overlooked Due To Their Colour

I found this post on a site and thought I'd share, it's sad that black cats find it harder to find a good home due to superstition as I find them to be very stunning and mysterious looking kitties. 

Here is a bit from a site I decided to share to raise awareness:

"

It’s hard to believe, but black cats are overlooked because of their colour

It’s a problem shared all over the world. And yet black cats have as much to offer as any other cat. Through no fault of their own, they are overlooked, as most people tend to choose ‘prettier’ coloured cats. Even black kittens are the last to be adopted, while their more colourful siblings are chosen first. And so, black cats spend longer in foster care, waiting for someone to see past their colour…

In some countries black cats are seen as lucky, but in the main it seems they are rejected on a superstitious basis; that they are somehow unlucky or a ‘witches cat’.  Added to that, black cats can be difficult to photograph so their pictures never do them justice.

We know black cats are just as wonderful as any other, with exactly the same needs – to be loved and cared for. If you enjoy the company of cats whatever their colour, please consider adopting a black cat.

" from link http://www.animalrescueandcare.org.uk/black-cats/

Please be careful though, some people use pure white, pure black cats and other animals with superstition linked to them for witchcraft and other things so know who you are giving your cat to and avoid giving around or on superstitious dates.
