We have almost 11,000 friends and followers supporting our page, and tonight we come to you with some honesty, and a HUGE ask for help.

What many still don’t know is that we are a SELF-FUNDED branch of the RSPCA and a charity in our own right.
We work tirelessly to raise enough funds to keep us going day to day. We have to find £500,000 a year to cover our running costs. This is huge. And we are struggling to carry on.

We’re coming to you with a big plea for help- and that’s to keep us going into 2027.
Which is why we are launching our Winter Wish appeal to fundraise and help make that happen.

We became the RSPCA Thanet Branch in 1962. If we have helped you in any way since that time; perhaps you have re-homed an animal from us, we have come and scanned a stray cat living in your garden, relocated a fallen bird from a nest, given you advice over the phone or even supported you when you’ve had to make the decision to surrender your animal then WE NOW NEED YOU.

Even if you can only spare £1, please please pledge to our appeal.
Our little branch needs the people of Thanet right now 💙

Thank you ❤️‍🩹

This winter, we need you more than ever before. RSPCA Isle of Thanet is a self funded branch of the RSPCA, and we are looking to raise enough money to keep us rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming animals into 2027.

This handsome chap is Benji ☺️

Benji is an incredibly curious and inquisitive young man! He is always on the look out for attention, and particularly loves to lend a hand with his daily cleaning by throwing all the equipment around.
He can be a little unsure of quick movement, loud noises and excessive handling, but he is already showing big progress in his confidence!

Handsome boy Edgar has unfortunately found himself back in our care, and we’d love to get him into his forever family 💙

Edgar here recently went to what we thought would be his new home, as an outdoor cat. He had shown very little real interest in human interaction whilst with us, so an outdoor home was perfect!
After a short time with his new family, he broke into their home and claimed his spot on his human parent’s lap 🥹
He made himself very comfortable, which was great to see, and we hoped for a happily forever after! Unfortunately this family had another cat in the home, and neither Edgar or the other cat was very happy about this home intrusion, which is what led to his return.

🎉 I am 5 years old
🐱🐶 I would like to be the only animal in the home
🤰 I could live with older secondary school age children
🌳 I would like access outdoors once I’m settled

Edgar is just on the lookout for some patience and a comfy lap to curl up on. If you think that could be you, please email [email protected] ☺️

Sweet and gentle soul Figaro can take some time to trust, but the reward is so worth the journey involved 🖤

It has taken weeks of patience, understanding, and lots of gentle encouragement, but we've seen Figaro has go from an overwhelmed boy hiding away, to one that is becoming more comfortable in the presence of humans. He is even approaching familiar people for fuss, and has a real affection for treats 😋

We believe there is so much more Figaro to enjoy, and in the right home, he will only continue to blossom 🥰

⌚ I am 8 years old
👩🏻 I am looking for a quiet, calm home with adults only
🐱🐶 I would also prefer to be the only animal in the home
🏡 I will enjoy an outdoor space once I am settled and comfortable in my own home

Please email us on [email protected] if you have a home for our Figaro 💙

Meet Lola, the chattiest girl on the block!

This sweet girl love affections in any way she can get it, but play is still a work in progress. We are confident with some time her playful side will really shine 💙

Lola can get a little overstimulated at times, but she’s very clear when she’s had enough and will take herself away for a moment.

🎉 I am 8 years old
🐱🐶 I would prefer to be the only animal in the home
🤰 I could live with secondary school age children
🌳 I would like to explore outside once I’ve settled in to my new family

If you have a little spot on the sofa that is just Lola shaped, email [email protected]
