If you are missing a cat of this description, please get in touch with us by calling us on 0300 777 1847 or emailing us at [email protected]. Thank you.
Thank you to Liz Jarvis MP for coming to our centre to see all the work we do here at Blue Cross. And our ex-racer greyhound Spud thanks you for some cuddles 🐶

Nobody should have to choose between feeding themselves or their pet. Visit your local and pick up a food donation parcel to help us feed local pets in need through the and Pet Food Bank project.
Every parcel you donate goes to a local food bank, which supports people and pets when they need it most.
Ducky was alone and curled up in a bush when one of our nurses spotted him on her walk home. 💔 After being taken in and cared for, it was clear that all Ducky wanted was to be loved. Because after being introduced to a cuddly crocodile, he hasn't left its side since.
After a full health check, Ducky and his crocodile were adopted by a loving family. 💙
While all dog breeds need to be careful, flat-faced breeds struggle to regulate their temperature even more. 🌡️
Don't take the risk today; keep them cool and entertained indoors.
More on how to keep your dog cool 👉 https://bit.ly/46H6jQ6.
❗️❗️it’s hot! Please remember trips out in this weather should only be if absolutely necessary, including grooming and routine vet visits!
Provide plenty of fresh water and shade for your pets and consider some indoor enrichment rather than a walk in this heat.

Spud would like to remind you that unfortunately our centre will be without power tomorrow, so we will be closed to the public. We won't be able to take phone calls or answer Emails and our Reception team will not be available to accept donations on this day. Spud will no doubt be enjoying extra walks and fun in the sun! He assures us that the power will be back on Tuesday so we will be open as usual. Thank you for your understanding.
Meet the handsome Junior 😻
He has a lot of love to give and enjoys finding a cosy lap to sit on ❤ Junior could share his new home with calmer teenagers who can give him time to build up his trust.
See the link to his profile below!

Today is international cat day! 😺
Show us some photos of your cats 😻
Happy to all the amazing felines out there, especially those patiently waiting for a loving home of their own! 💙
Currently, we have 122 cats in our care who are seeking homes. Among them is Raymond, who is concerned that potential adopters might be hesitant because he only has three legs. 🥺
Raymond wants us to emphasise that cats come in all shapes and sizes, but what truly matters is the size of their hearts.
Please help us find this sensitive soul a home. 👉 https://bit.ly/3SEXu3k
We hit the goal! 🏁 With your incredible support, we've now got over 100,000 signatures in the race to end greyhound racing.

Chaplin is here to tell you that our Southampton centre will be without power next Monday 12th August, due to circumstances beyond his control! The centre will therefore be closed for the day and Reception will not be manned. We will be unable to answer phone calls or emails until we are back in action again on Tuesday 13th August when business will resume as usual. Chaplin would like to thank you for your understanding 😺
Take a look at the pets who have gone to their new homes this week!
We wish you all the best ❤
No pet should have to go hungry. And No one should have to choose between feeding themselves or feeding their pets. ❤
Like Vincent and his dog, Tika, our pet food banks are here to keep people and their beloved pets together.
Throughout August, fundraising events will be held at every Pets UK store across the country, where people can buy food parcels or make a donation to help more pets through the pet food bank project. Find out more 👉 https://bit.ly/3CR0Jw0
A year in our care is not a milestone Mango wants to celebrate. 💔 In fact, 379 days makes her our longest staying cat for quite some time.
Inquisitive, playful and full of character, Mango is a very special girl. She can be sensitive but once she builds up a bond with you, she's very sociable. She would be best suited to a rural or semi-rural location where she can explore her surroundings.
Please stop scrolling this and give Mango a chance! 👉 https://bit.ly/3ydTPCN
Pets are beloved family members, sometimes a person's only friend. None should have to go hungry – and nobody should have to make the heart-breaking decision to give up their pet because they can’t afford to feed them. We need your support from 7 – 27 August to promote our pet food bank service at our summer event in partnership with Pets at Home. This event is family friendly, and everyone is invited to join the fun!

We, along with Blue Cross UK, are urging owners of healthy horses who are struggling to take care of them and meet their basic needs to consider finding good homes for their horses in the summer months rather than waiting until winter when conditions are harsher. 🐴☀
The recent findings from a Cost of Living Survey have highlighted the financial strain that many horse owners are experiencing. Rehoming in the summer, when the days are longer and weather is better, allows new owners to bond with their horses more effectively rather than the winter which presents the additional challenges of dark, cold nights, increased mud, and the need for more feed and forage if horses are stabled, making horse care more demanding.
We know this isn’t an easy decision for any horse owner to have to make, that’s why we’re here to help you do what’s best for you and your horse.
If you are considering finding a new home for your horse and are looking for tips on responsible rehoming, Blue Cross offer a 'Responsible equine rehoming' advice page here 👉 https://bit.ly/3YoAmKb
If you are in a situation where you are already struggling to provide day-to-day care for your horse, World Horse Welfare offer a 'Help for Horse Owners' support service here 👉 https://bit.ly/3SpXbsY
Please do get in touch if you need support. 💙
Maisie has a major milestone to share! 🎉
Through our pet food banks, we've now provided three million meals for cats, dogs and small animals throughout the UK.
With the support of the Pets Foundation, we've been here to help struggling owners and keep families and their beloved pets together since setting up in 2022.
Throughout August, fundraising events will be held at every Pets UK across the country, where people can buy food parcels or make a donation to help more pets through the pet food bank project. If you're interested in volunteering, get in touch 👉 https://bit.ly/4fnG1X0
It's been a busy few days of pets going to their new homes!
We wish you all the best ❤
What better day to try and find Jinx and Ted a home than on ? 💕 These best friends have been ready to start their retirement together for some time.
This pair loves walks, exploring new places, and meeting new friends, and would be best suited for owners who are around during the day.
We want nothing more than to find a home. Can you help us? 👉 https://bit.ly/4fyOO8G
We are running low on kitten food and would be very grateful of any donations!

When Evy was purchased online, it quickly became clear that the tiny puppy was very sick. 💔
Rushed into our care in the nick of time, she was diagnosed with a potentially fatal disease called parvovirus, which causes vomiting and diarrhoea, leading to rapid dehydration and serious complications.
Unscrupulous breeders often raise puppies in diabolical conditions that put the health of litters at grave risk. While highly contagious, parvovirus is an easily preventable condition through vaccination.
Thankfully, Evy was one of the lucky ones. With 24/7 care, including intravenous fluids, antibiotics and pain relief, she started to improve and after some time recovering, was soon a happy, healthy pup once again!
While we would always encourage you to consider the benefits of adopting, if you do decide to buy a puppy, choose a trustworthy breeder who has their best interests at heart so you never have to see a puppy suffer, like Evy. Find out more 👉 https://bit.ly/499n31W.
When our cats in the cattery are missing the outside world, we bring it to them! 🍃
Like Binx, who's had a longer stay than normal in our cattery while we treated him for ringworm. Due to the highly contagious nature of ringworm to other cats as well as humans, poor Binx had to stay in his pen for several weeks while the team wore boiler suits to administer medication several times a day.
While he got better, the team were dedicated to making sure he still had plenty of enrichment with a foraging box so he could still enjoy nature! Now he's been given the all clear, he's back on his paws and desperate to find a new home so he can get out exploring again 👉 https://bit.ly/4dh5wHD
See you all there! 💙
We are honoured that Diane James, Head of Blue Cross UK People Services, is joining us at The Donkey Sanctuary to celebrate National Human-Animal Bond Awareness Day on Sunday 28th July. The talk will be via Facebook Live and recorded to share at a later date. Diane will also be meeting and greeting during the day so if you have a question or need advice she will be available to help in person. Pet Loss is a sensitive subject that affects many of us and we understand how much the supports individuals through difficult days
Our lovely Binx has been enjoying some enrichment to keep him busy while he waits for his new home! He is very inquisitive and loves having new things.
Sadly, Binx hasn’t received a single application yet 😢 He is such a fun cat and loves lots of fuss!

When Rumba found a home over the weekend, she thought her dreams had finally come true. But due to a change in her new owner’s circumstances, she was returned to us within a few days. 💔
An ex-racing greyhound, she’s bouncy and sociable and is keen to try life out as a beloved pet. Could you be her third time lucky? 👉 https://bit.ly/4fdKpHZ
