Tyson's story
Tyson's story is heartbreaking but unfortunately, not uncommon
Poor Tyson was in a horrendous state when he first came into our care. He was skin and bone and had lost all his spirit 😢 He's still got a way to go, but he's doing so much better and his future is looking bright ❤️
Be their someone, this Christmas and help us give Tyson and other neglected dogs the love and care they deserve: justgiving.com/campaign/betheirsomeone2024
A thank you from Cabe
🎄 Cabe wanted to pinch the spotlight for a moment to thank you all for getting us to 1/3 of our goal... in just 4 days! 🎄
Lots of people think black and white cats aren't pretty, but just take a look at our Cabey baby 😍 not only is he gorgeous, but he also has a heart of gold and a personality that lights up every room ❤️ Cabe is reserved, so he is hoping the next black and white cat that comes into our care will find their forever home as quickly as he has 🖤🤍
Be their someone this Christmas and help us care for black and white cats for as long as it takes to find their forever homes: justgiving.com/campaign/betheirsomeone2024 🔗
Help us give Jack-Jack the stable future he deserves.
It's #GivingTuesday - a day dedicated to generosity and hope - so we want to introduce you to the sweetest little puppy who came into our care yesterday: everyone meet Jack-Jack! 😍
Jack-Jack was purchased from a popular selling website, but health issues in the family meant his owners couldn't keep him. Rather than selling him on into a potentially uncertain life, Jack-Jack's owners made the best decision for him and signed him over to us.
Jack-Jack's future is now full of hope - he will spend a bit of time with us getting all the cuddles and kisses he could want, before we find him a loving and stable forever home ❤️
You can help us give more puppies like Jack-Jack the best possible future. Be their someone, this Christmas: justgiving.com/campaign/betheirsomeone2024
Help us make this festive season extra special for animals in need!
🎄 Be Their Someone This Christmas 🎄
Help us make this festive season extra special for animals in need!
This year, dozens of animals will spend Christmas with us at Abbey Street. For some, it will be their very first holiday in a safe, loving environment, surrounded by care and kindness with our dedicated team. Each animal has a story – saved from cruelty, freed from neglect, or rescued from a life on the streets. And this year, you can be part of their story.
We’re aiming to raise £3,000 this Christmas to make sure every animal in our care feels cherished and loved. As a self-funded charity, we rely on kind-hearted supporters like you to make this happen.
🐾 How Your Support Will Help
Every pound you donate will help us care for our animals and give them a Christmas to remember. You'll help provide a safe, warm, and loving environment for animals who have nowhere else to go. From wagging tails to purring kittens, your generosity will light up their Christmas and remind them they are not alone. If you’re able to Gift Aid your donation, we will be able to claim an extra 25% from the taxman!
💕 You Can Be Their Someone
Your generosity will light up their Christmas, letting them know they’re not alone. Every donation, big and small, makes a difference to the cats, dogs, rabbits, and small furries who are spending the holidays with us this year.
Go to justgiving.com/campaign/betheirsomeone2024 to donate and help us give them the love they deserve this festive season.
From all of us at RSPCA Derby – and the animals whose lives you’ll brighten – thank you from the bottom of our hearts 💙

Kitten food needed
We caught this adorable moment when Paige groomed her mum, Pippa, the other day and it filled our hearts with so much love that we just had to share it with you 🥰 Paige has now found her forever home, but we're still caring for lots of other kittens and we're in need of more kitten food - if you're able to help by donating a few pouches, we would be incredibly grateful! Any brand of wet kitten food in jelly would be a huge help (we can't use the gravy variety).
We've popped a couple of different types on our Amazon Wishlist (https://amzn.eu/0N37iE5), or we can take donations between 10am and 4pm any day except Wednesdays at our centre on Abbey Street.
Thank you for your continued support,
The RSPCA Derby Team 💙
