Rescue Me Animal Sanctuary

Rescue Me is a small foster home based rescue helping animals across Merseyside The more foster homes we have the more animals we can help.

One off or set up standing order: https://rescuemeanimalsanctuary.charitycheckout.co.uk/profile

Rescue Me Animal Sanctuary Registered Charity Number 1157210 is a small foster home based animal sanctuary in the Merseyside area, set up in July 2013. We primarily focus on rescuing unwanted/stray cats and rabbits, however we will aim to help any animal in need. We currently have several foster homes

throughout Merseyside and we are very keen to recruit more! To find out more information, please get in touch; [email protected]
We have a strict non-destruction policy and will keep every animal in our care until a forever home can be found. We carry out home visits on prospective new homes, this is to ensure that the area is safe/suitable and also provide a time for advice on adopting a rescue pet and answering any questions the prospective owner has. Home visits are not to look at how clean a house is or
what the decor is like! All Rescue Me animals are deflea'd, wormed, microchipped, neutered (if the animal is too young, he/she will be recalled for neutering). Our philosophy is to accept an animal into our care based solely on its need and not on any other physical characteristic, providing we have a suitable foster home free. We believe that by looking after a rescue pet in a home environment we are able to fully assess the animal, understand its needs and the type of home he/she will require and ultimately match them to a suitable home. We are very excited about our new venture but currently only have a handful of volunteers, with more support we can achieve things faster and rescue even more needy animals...please come and join us, we'll welcome you aboard!!! We are desperate for donations, please help to keep us afloat!! Paypal; [email protected]

🌼❤️ UPSY DAISY IS LOOKING FOR A LOVING HOME 🏡❣️

Beautiful older lady, Upsy, finds herself in rescue at 8-years old. She is sad to find herself in this situation and really does need to be in a loving home, with experienced cat people, who will give her time, space and lots of TLC.

Upsy has shown no bad temper or aggression in her foster home but neither has she shown any desire for a fuss!! She does purr when her fosterers are with her but, as soon as they stroke her, she runs off and settles nearby 😻. The only time she seems to enjoy being stroked is when she is eating 🍲. She does like her food! . If her fosterers stroke her spine, whilst she chomps and then stop the stroking, she meows and complains, until stroking resumes! Once she has finished eating, she wants to sit near to her fosterers but not be touched . Even so, she is a sweet girl, with no nastiness in her.

As already said, Upsy needs an experienced home, with people who are happy to allow her to have space and time, whilst always reinforcing that she is loved. Upsy needs to give and receive affection on her own terms. It is also important that her adopter realises that any cat or kitten, takes time to settle in a home. It’s a big step finding their forever home 🐾

Upsy is in foster on Wirral and has been neutered, chipped, parasite treated and has had her first vaccination. She needs a quiet home, as an only pet and with any children aged 15-years+. If interested in adopting Upsy, please call us on 07952017696 and leave a voicemail. Adoption fee and vetting applies.

💗 Searching for Jessie's ✨️Extra Special✨️ Home 💗

Sometimes an animal comes into your life who brings so much joy, and so many lessons along the way. For us, that animal has been Jessie

Born in Bosnia, Jessie was involved in an accident at a young age that left her without use of her back legs. She learned to get herself around by scooting along on her bottom. After spending 2 months in a vet and a year in a Bosnian rescue, she was imported by another UK rescue and directly adopted to a home which was unfortunately not able to provide her with the care she needed.

Jessie landed safely with Rescue Me in 2022, much to our relief.

We initially understood her hind legs to be completely paralysed, however on arrival she was assessed by Rescue Me’s wonderful veterinary team who discovered not only could she feel her legs but she could move them a little too!

With little or no muscle mass, incredibly tight tendons causing her back legs to be very straight, and deep spinal pain, the thought of Jessie walking again seemed impossible. But as she was, her toileting was causing sores and infections while the nerve damage to her back was no doubt responsible for severe discomfort. We had to do something to improve her quality of life, and fast, it just wasn’t fair to leave her as she was any longer.

It has been a long, incredible journey so far, with a wonderful team of fosterers, vets and animal physiotherapists rallying behind Jessie in her fight. She has weekly acupuncture treatments to aid with her nerve pain and spark activity in long forgotten pathways and no longer suffers with the painful sores on her rear.

Jessie has improved in her 18 months with us, receiving very intensive physiotherapy every few days. Although she is a very happy and affectionate cat, we cannot make any guarantees that she will regain full use of her back legs again, but she is becoming stronger and benefits greatly from regular sessions.

The road is very long for this kind of injury, so it is time to begin searching for her forever home.

Who are we looking for?
✅️ Adopters willing to be involved in her rehab before adoption
✅️ Able to continue regular sessions (currently six weekly) from a recommended, qualified animal physiotherapist upon adoption and keep up with her routine exercises at home
✅️ An adult only home
✅️ An understanding of cat behaviour, especially overstimulation
✅️ Lots of TLC to give, Jsssie says "cuddles on demand" 😆
✅️ Willing to find new, inventive ways for enrichment
✅️ Able to give Jessie her very own, easy-clean, easy to navigate, comfy room! 💅
✅️ Experience with disabled or intensive care animals desirable but not essential
✅️ Able to make visits to Southport for visits initially are preferable, but these may be able to be conducted online for the right home
✅️ Financially stable with an understanding her existing conditions will not be covered by insurance
❌️ No other cats (calm dogs may be OK after careful, slow introduction)

If you are interested in Jessie, or would like to find out more information, please call us on 07952 017 696 and leave a voicemail

Please help us and SHARE Jessie's story 💕 Her forever person is out there somewhere...could it be you?

🌹❤️ QUINTESSENTIALLY QUTE QIARA IS QUIETLY KEEPING HER TOOTSIES CROSSED 🐾🏡

Qiara is a calm and gentle cat, who loves nothing more than to lay out and receive lots of attention. She is 3-years old and has made a fabulous job of raising her kittens.

Qiara is, at first, slightly cautious of her humans but, once she realises who it is, she’s the most loving girl imaginable. She gives lots of kisses, purrs 🚂 and even love bites when she’s extra happy!

Qiara loves her food 🍲 and isn’t picky at all….she loves a cheeky Dreamie whilst sitting up in her spot on the couch. She is quite a vocal girl and loves to remind her fosterers when it’s food time 😹. She has a playful side to her too, as she has shown interest in some toys 🧸🧶. However, her babies steal the toys quite quickly. Once in her forever home, she will thrive and really show her playful side when all the attention is on her!!!

Qiara came into us with a squinty eye, which soon cleared up. We could find no cause for this and suspect she may be a flu carrier, although this doesn’t present with sneezes and sniffles. There may be a flare up when she first goes home, due to the stress of the move but it will soon settle.

Qiara is in foster in L1 and has been neutered, chipped, parasite treated and has had her first vaccination. She has lived with cats previously but would need careful introductions to a friendly resident cat. Any resident cats would also need to be fully vaccinated. She hasn’t lived with dogs. She can be homed with cat-savvy children, aged 8-years+, as she can get all unnecessary and excitable when having a fuss.

If interested in adopting Quarantine, please call us on 07952017696 and leave a voicemail. Adoption fee and vetting applies.

❤️🌹THE O-MAZING AND O-DORABLE O LITTER ARE NOW O-PING FOR OUTSTANDING O-BODES 🏡🐾

The beautiful O kittens are 10-weeks old. They came to us in sad circumstances as their Mum died when they were 2-weeks old. Our wonderful fosterers have made a fantastic job of handrearing them.

The 'O' kittens are an affectionate bunch of lively and fun-loving characters. They all love to play and have cuddles and may even give you a kiss 😽or two if they are in the mood! They have the loudest purrs and can often be found sunbathing on the windowsill or cuddled up together on their fosterer's lap. They are all similar in their lovely personalities, so you would be guaranteed a best friend no matter who you adopt.

They can live with resident cat-friendly cats but have never been around dogs or children. They are, however, young enough to get used to a calm cat-savvy dog and children aged 5-years+

The kittens are in foster in Runcorn and can also be picked up from our HQ in Melling. They have been neutered, chipped, parasite treated and have had their first vaccinations. If interested in adopting any of the kittens, please call us on 07952017696 and leave a voicemail. Adoption fee and vetting applies.

🌊❤️ RAVISHING RUSHING RIVER IS READY……🏡😻

River is an independent, sassy 2-year old girly who is looking for a forever family……a family who would love Peggy Mitchell and Regina George in cat form. Could that be you?

River came to us last year after being abandoned outside a pizza takeaway with her two older kittens. She did a great job raising them and they found homes almost straight away but River, understandably, was quite stressed by such an upheaval of being thrown out of her home and left to raise her kittens on the streets. She had very painful, non-healing lip ulcers, as a result of stress and overgrooming. She’s been on medication to clear this up but her new owners should understand that this may recur and she may need further treatment moving home. We can guide options with this and send clinical history to the vets of any potential adopters.

Her fosterer strongly suspects she has only ever been played with using hands and this has been quite rough and unwanted by River. She sometimes confuses a friendly stroke from a human as confrontational and can react by batting. She doesn’t use her claws and, once she trusts someone, this behaviour becomes considerably less. She enjoys being stroked on her head, when she asks to be and scratched gently around her ears. Stroking her spine, tail and pretty much anywhere else is not tolerated….100% in the danger zone ⚠️

River LOVES snuggling up to her trusted humans in bed. She tends to sleep by feet 🦶in bed, but will come to cuddle up under her bed partner’s neck, in the morning, for a head rub. If she likes you, you might even be treated to an affectionate lick or two. She loves playing with toys and loves anything fluffy or with feathers 🪶🧸

River will be a rewarding cat for those willing to give her the effort, time and space she needs. It would be beneficial to know a bit about cat behaviour (or willing to have a read up on it) to help settle her in more and reduce stress levels. River took a few weeks to settle into foster properly and tended to hide away in her carrier until she built her trust and confidence. Lots of hiding places, high up viewpoints and respect for boundaries and personal space will win River over!

Although River has accepted the resident cat in her foster home, she would prefer to be the only pet. She doesn’t like dogs and may boss around any resident cats. Any resident cats would need to be very relaxed, chilled and the time needed to introduce them may take a few months. River wouldn’t be suitable for homes with young children and would need safe outdoor access in her new home. She’s very inquisitive and enjoys exploring outdoors, although doesn’t venture terribly far.

River has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and treated for parasites. River is in foster in Preston and available for meet and greet for any potential adopters. If you are looking for a strong willed cat full of quirks, with a unique personality, call 07952 017 696 and leave a voicemail. Adoption fee and vetting applies.

🐈🐾 SUPER SIMBA NEEDS A RETIREMENT PAD 🏡❤️

Simba is an affectionate, elderly gent looking for his retirement home.

Simba, at the ripe age of 16 years old, came to us from bailiffs, after his owners failed to claim him. He arrived quite underweight and we decided to run some blood tests to check for any common older cat problems. Simba had us all floored when his thyroid and kidney levels came back normal!

He does have some arthritis and muscle wastage on his back legs and around his head, quite common for a gentleman of his age. Due to this, he is on daily oral metacam. This helps keep him comfortable and, since he has been with us, he has put on just over 1kg in weight. Any potential owners should be aware that these will not be insurable conditions and regular prescriptions will be needed from your own vet. Our vet clinic can send his medical history to any potential adopter’s own vet.

We think you'll agree that he's still rather handsome 🥰

Simba is a clean boy and always uses his tray. He would benefit from an owner with knowledge or experience of older cats. He would benefit from some adaptations (litter trays with lower sides, ramps, comfy beds) to help keep him comfy in his later years. Simba is also on Fortiflora to help keep his bowels in check and support his tummy.

Simba is a greedy boy and pretty much clears whatever is put in front of him. Despite his age, he still has big ginger cat energy and will let you know when it is feeding time by singing you the song of his people…..😹👏

Simba loves nothing more than someone sitting next to him, getting ear rubs and chin scratches. He purrs loudly, and gives headbumps and the odd bit of drool in return as a sign of his love and affection 😻

Simba has been neutered, received his first vaccination, microchip, and parasite treatment. Could you offer Simba a 5* retirement home in his senior years?

If so, please call us on 07952 017 696 and leave a voicemail. Adoption fee and vetting applies. Simba is in foster in Bootle

😿 POOR LITTLE YUCCA 😢

🐾❤️ YUMMY YUCCA IS LOOKING 👀 FOR A FOREVER HOME 🏡❣️

Adorable little Yucca is 11-weeks old and ready to go to his new family.

Yucca is a beautiful, healthy vivacious boy. He’s a gentle little boy, who is slightly nervous at first but comes round very quickly. He loves to be near people and, although he doesn’t particularly want to be picked up, he really loves being stroked and fussed 😻

Yucca has got a really good appetite 🍲 and is a strong, sturdy boy kitten. He is fully litter trained and keeps himself beautifully clean.

He’s a really pleasant little fella to have around and would fit in well with any family.

Yucca is in foster in West Derby and has been neutered, chipped, parasite treated and has had his first vaccination. He can be homed with children aged 5-years+, friendly resident cats and is young enough to get used to a calm, cat-savvy dog. If interested in adopting him, please call us on 07952017696 and leave a voicemail. Adoption fee and vetting applies.

Pablo needs a loving FOREVER home 🏡
***PLEASE READ VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE APPLYING***
🐶 Pablo is a 22 month old neutered male working cocker spaniel.
He came to us in an emergency when a local vets called us to say he was in a euthanasia appointment and was on the vets table about to be euthanaised for behaviour issues.
Pablo's previous owners described repeated bite incidents that sounded like resource guarding of items and space, which can be very common in this breed.

We are in no rush to find him a home as it is more important to take the time and find the perfect match for him.
In the time we have had Pablo, we have seen no resource guarding or any aggression towards people.
THIS DOES NOT MEAN TO SAY IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN,THERE IS A CHANCE THAT IN A NORMAL HOME ENVIRONMENT, PABLO MAY START RESOURCE GUARDING AGAIN IF HE IS PLACED IN A SITUATION WHERE HE FEELS VULNERABLE, THREATENED OR CHALLENGED INAPPROPRIATELY, ESPECIALLY WHEN HE FIRST ARRIVES INTO A NEW HOME WHICH WILL BE AN ANXIOUS TIME FOR HIM.
WE DO NOT HAVE A MAGIC WAND, HE HAS JUST BEEN MANAGED APPROPRIATELY HERE.
If he were to become possessive over an item or space, he needs someone confident and assertive but who will not directly challenge him.
Challenging a resource guarder only ends up with one outcome- a bite!
🐾He is a cheeky friendly boy who enjoys doing what he is told. He loves a cuddle and to play with toys. He enjoys his food and takes treats nicely.
He seems ok with dog savvy cats.
He loves playing with other dogs especially ones with similar energy levels who he can play and run around with.
He is house trained, none destructive, good with vets and groomers.
He can be mildly possessive with toys around other dogs, he is fed seperately from the other dogs to avoid any issues.

🏡To give him the best chance of a successful rehome we are looking for a home that can provide;
✅️Plenty of exercise and stimulation
✅️No children or visiting children
✅️Other neutered high energy dogs to play with
✅️Lots of outdoors time
✅️MUST be experienced with resource guarding (ie. actually lived with one previously).
✅️A home where there are just one or two people in the home who can get to know him really well, respect his boundaries and build up a genuine trust.

❤️‍🩹TRUST is the key and this will take time ❤️‍🩹

Any potential adopters will be expected to demonstrate how they would manage resource guarding.

🐶 Pablo is neutered, fully vaccinated, chipped, parasite treated, has a clean bill of health and will have 5 weeks free insurance.
🚗 Homes within 1 hour of Melling, L31 considered
⭐️Adoption fee and homecheck apply.
