Happy National Cat Day 😺

This National Cat Day, we would like to thank everyone for their applications to our Cat Neutering Drive! Thank you for taking the steps to help get your cat neutered, we received so many requests for a place! 🙀

Those that have been successful will be receiving emails this week, if not already about how you can secure your spot. 😻

If you have not received anything by 5pm, Friday 30th October 2026, then unfortunately you have been unsuccessful at this time due to such a high demand. 😿

We will hopefully be able to put on more neutering drives in the future but that can only be achieved through generous donations! So please pop into any of our charity shops in Lincoln and Woodhall Spa and find that perfect Christmas present! 🎁

💰 You can also donate £3 by texting RSPCALINCOLN to 70470 or you can make a monthly donation through the Safe Haven Sponsorship Scheme at https://www.rspca-lincoln.org.uk/donate/safe-haven-sponsorship-scheme/

Halloween Pet Safety 🎃🐾

With Halloween around the corner, lets discuss how to keep your pet safe and go over the common risks and hazards. ⚠

🍫 Chocolate

Chocolate is toxic to dogs and can also be harmful to cats. It contains theobromine and caffeine, which can cause vomiting, diarrhoea, restlessness, tremors, seizures and, in severe cases, be life-threatening.

The darker the chocolate, the greater the risk. If your pet has eaten any chocolate, contact your vet immediately—don't wait for symptoms to appear.

🎉 Decorations

Halloween decorations can be fun, but they may pose risks to curious pets. Keep candles, pumpkins, electrical cables, fake cobwebs and small decorations well out of reach, as they can cause burns, choking or intestinal blockages if chewed or swallowed.

Create a safe, quiet space for your pet away from decorations and the excitement, and always supervise them around seasonal displays.

🍬 Trick or Treating

Frequent knocks at the door, unfamiliar visitors and loud noises can be stressful for pets.

Keep dogs, cats and rabbits in a quiet, secure room away from the front door, with access to fresh water, toys and a comfortable place to rest.

Remind children not to let pets escape when opening the door, and never force nervous animals to greet trick-or-treaters.

Keep safe this week but remember to have fun also! 👻

Did someone say more kittens? 🐈

4 weeks ago, we received another group of kittens from the inspectors. The poor darlings had symptoms of cat flu as seen in this video from their arrival. 🤧

As we reach towards the end of Adoptober, we would like to implore that there are enough cats out there. Breeding cats or allowing your unneutered cat out and about can and will lead to unwanted pregnancies and large litters. 🤰

Why you should adopt from a rescue? 🐾

💉 Your new pet will be chipped, vaccinated and neutered or a voucher provided once they are old/big enough.

🐛 They will have had a course of flea and worm treatment and have had a health check so that you can welcome them into your home with peace of mind.

🏥 We offer 4 weeks free pet insurance to cover the early stages while you both find your feet.

💰 Our adoption fees are affordable and actually cost less than what we may have spent to get them ready for adoption.

👩‍💻 To see our available cats (and other rescues), please visit https://www.rspca-lincoln.org.uk/animals-for-adoption/

To help support the kittens and their search for a forever home, as well as the care for all of our rescues, you can donate £3 by texting RSPCALINCOLN to 70470 or you can make a monthly donation through the Safe Haven Sponsorship Scheme at https://www.rspca-lincoln.org.uk/donate/safe-haven-sponsorship-scheme/

A unique arrival for our branch! 🐶

Johnny, the beautiful border collie. Johnny was brought in by inspectors at the end of September and has been a wonderful presence in the kennels.

Johnny will be available soon so keep an eye on our website!

💰 To help support Johnny's search for a forever home, as well as the care for all of our rescues, you can donate £3 by texting RSPCALINCOLN to 70470 or you can make a monthly donation through the Safe Haven Sponsorship Scheme at https://www.rspca-lincoln.org.uk/donate/safe-haven-sponsorship-scheme/

On Friday, we were visited by BBC Look North to get a closer look into the gorgeous puppies we have taken in. 🥰

Thank you again to all who donated and offered up name suggestions! 🐶

Well done to our Animal Welfare Officer, Whitney for being our voice and spreading the missions of our branch. 🐾

Thank you to Simon Spark for visiting and to Look North for featuring us during the evening news. 🎥

Visits for the puppies have been going well and 4 have already been reserved with visits booked for the final 2. 🤩

This Adoptober isn't just all about adopting our furry friends. 🐾

You can support rescue animals by helping us foster some of them! Fostering helps rescues to house and care for more animals at a time, it gives us valuable insight into how the rescue pet is within a home environment and can also help them feel more safe and relaxed. 🏠

Below are some fostering myths we would like to bust! 💪

🏥 We would provide financial reimbursement for food, bedding, toys and vet treatment.

😁 You do not need any previous experience, we will be there to support your journey.

🐶 We would only give you a rescue animal that you are comfortable to take on, whether for the short or long term.

🐱 Having pets or children does not stop you from fostering, we will consider all applications and discuss any adjustments needed.

🐰 If you would like to help change a life, please express your interest in fostering with us via email at [email protected].

🐾 We are looking for dog, cat, rabbit and guinea pig fosterers ideally within Lincoln, Grimsby, Gainsborough, Mablethorpe and the surrounds.
