🙌🏼 Fresh Face Friday 😁

Stan and Slim ✨

Beautiful brother and sister duo looking for their forever home together! They are a wonderful pair and will be the perfect addition to a lovely family. 🥰

They can live with children pending introductions and may consider another friendly cat that matches their age and personaility. 😁

Dee-Dee ✨

Dee-dee is a wonderful soul and is making fantatsic progress in our care and loves to be centre of attention. 😍

Dee-dee needs a home where she can be the only pet and would prefer an adult only home, however, we would consider older cat savvy children 13+ who can be confident around her and pending introductions. 😇

🦆 Ducklings 🦆

After taking in 2 ducklings that Friends of the Animals rescued - yesterday we had another 3 that were found abandoned by mum. 🥺

They will be with us until they have grown big and strong ready for release 😇

🐰Rabbits are for life, not just for Easter ❗

Rabbits might look cuddly however the reality is that rabbits are rarely cuddly and not good 'starter pets', certainly not an Easter gift!

Rabbits have complex needs, require specialised diets and environments and they need plenty of space away from predators. 🐇

A large number of rabbits acquired during the Easter season are abandoned within the year. 🥺

Here at the RSPCA Isle of Wight, we see a lot of sad stories, but today we want to share the happy endings - despite things getting off to a bad start.
The first poster boy of our campaign is Ted.
This ebullient little Bichon Frise was 11 years old when he came to us with a terrible skin condition, horrendously matted coat, polyps, blind in one eye due to cataracts and chronic ear issues.
After four days of being shut down, his sunny character appeared and we don't think his tail has stopped wagging since.
Ted stayed with us for some months, receiving specialist treatment and lots of TLC from our team before we found him his perfect forever home with Ann and David, where he is now blissfully happy.
If you would like to help more dogs like Ted please donate what you can here and help us keep tails wagging across the Island. (And don't forget to share your adoption stories - we want to hear them all!)

Meet Raven 🐀

Our sweet young lady Raven was born in January 2025. 🥹

She's a timid little lady but once she's comfortable around you, she'll happily say hello and use you as a climbing frame! 😂

Raven is very lonely so she is desperate for some company. We are seeking a mischief of other female rats for Raven to join or another lonely girl/neutered male. 🥰

If you feel you can offer Raven her forever home, please fill out an online application form via our website. ✨

Millie and Herman 🩷💙

These two are still looking for a place to call home 🏡

Millie is the confident one of the two, she loves to flirt with everyone and be centre of attention! 😻 Herman is a little shy but he has a great character once he feels comfortable. 😇

Millie and Herman would love a garden to explore and as they are white cats they will need cat safe suncream. 😎
