Essex RSPCA: 5 pets who are on the lookout for new homes

Whether you want to adopt a dog, cat, rabbit, guinea pig or hamster, someone always wants to find a new owner.

There are several RSPCA branches in the county, along with the affiliated Danaher Animal Home.

If you think you would be able to rehome one of them, go to either the Essex South, Southend & District branch, the South West branch, or the Danaher Animal Home websites for details.

You can also donate to these charities and help them carry on their rescue work at the same websites.

Olive and Pepper came into the centre after they were rescued from inappropriate living conditions.

They are looking to find a place together and will need time to learn about a normal home environment.

Ideally, they would go to a quiet home with a garden they can play in. Additionally, they could live with another small or medium dog that is gentle.

Eddie is described as a "gentle soul" who was initially very nervous when arriving at the centre.

He would be best suited to go to a quiet adult-only home, and could possibly share it with another cat.
