The South London branch of the RSPCA cares for the welfare of animals in our area thanks to the generosity of our wonderful volunteers & supporters.
The story of a stray cat named Chips who came to us rather the worse for wear. Everything worked out well this time as a family that had been feeding him have decided to adopt him and pay for his expensive dental and eye treatments. That is so kind hearted of them, with treatments potentially … Continue reading Chipper Chips
The number of stray cats we are seeing is spiralling unfortunately. This could be a symptom of the financial crisis as owners abandon pets they can no longer afford, or decline to pay for neutering and then find themselves with unwanted kittens. It’s a sad state of affairs but abandonment should never be an option. … Continue reading Bob Cat
With stray cats on the increase, we often receive calls from concerned people who see the collarless felines in their gardens. We recently had a group of four sisters come into our care. You can read their full story below, but having had them treated, microchipped and neutered, the two pairs of siblings will have … Continue reading Four Cats, Two Outcomes
Our Animal Welfare Officer reports on an unusual case..... Some of you may already know of Persephone, our very special diabetic cat who we’ve desperately been looking for a home for. She came to us under very sad circumstances which we haven’t before written about in such detail. Very upsettingly, Persephone’s previous owner had locked … Continue reading The Perils of Persephone The Cat
If you’ve been following us on social media, you might remember Molly the beautiful calico cat we’ve had in foster care for while. We don’t know a great deal about her origin story, but we do know that she was sadly abandoned in Croydon in the middle of December which I can imagine was an … Continue reading Sweet Moggy Molly

Laura takes up the story, “When Felix first arrived in February, he was timid and hid under a dresser with only his tail visible. I couldn’t pet him or … Continue reading Foster Failure Felix
A few months ago we were approached by a family wanting help with neutering their cats. We were able to help but found that one of the cats was already pregnant. We therefore had to wait until she gave birth, and then also needed to find homes for the litter. Abbie adopted two of the … Continue reading A Kitten Adoption Story – Atticus & Delilah

We hope you all had a lovely Easter weekend. Perhaps the Easter Bunny paid you a visit? We have rabbits on our mind every day of the year and offer discounted rabbit neutering as we try to control the domestic rabbit population that has seen quite an explosion in recent years. The delicate operation can … Continue reading Bunnies Are Not Just For Easter
This is Onslow, or Sid, as we knew him. He came into us at the end of 2020 when the family who'd been feeding him as the stray he then was, were moving away. He had a lot of trust issues and was very nervous around new people. This was quite unsurprising as he had several … Continue reading A Happy Cat Tale
