RSPCA Keighley, Craven & Upper Wharfedale

RSPCA Keighley, Craven & Upper Wharfedale We are a local, independently run RSPCA branch covering the Keighley & Craven District plus over 350 miles of the rural Craven dales.

RSPCA Keighley, Craven & Upper Wharfedale, Registered Charity No. 232237 Our branch is a local, independently run branch covering almost 350 square miles of the rural craven dales. Towns and villages served by the branch include Ilkley, Keighley, Skipton, Barnoldswick, Slaidburn and Settle, Haworth & Grassington. Our branch is run entirely by volunteers, ranging from a team of locally elected trus

tees along with the support of a team of branch volunteers. The branch is almost completely self financing which means that we rely on donations from the public and businesses within our area, all the donations we receive help to continue with our vital work within the branch area. Our animal welfare work includes re-homing cats and dogs in branch care, fundraising and raising the profile of animal welfare issues. Running a branch is obviously very time consuming and our volunteers help us with a range of tasks from fostering animals to answering the phone, from fundraising events to dog walking and administration tasks. Without the help of all our volunteers the branch would not be able to operate, we always need more people to join us and help the branch. Could you spare some time for us? You can find out more on volunteering with us on the branch website. Thank you for taking the time to visit and we hope to see you again soon.

Meet Midnight – a beautiful five-year-old boy with a gentle soul who’s had a really tough start in life. Midnight is now looking for a calm, loving home where he can be the only pet. He’s stopped overgrooming since being in foster care and is now starting to show his sweet, playful side—enjoying feather toys, cuddles, and attention. Midnight is very gentle, never aggressive, and just needs a patient adopter with a kind heart and plenty of TLC to help him continue growing in confidence. Midnight is ready to learn what a safe, loving home truly feels like. Could you be the one to give him the second chance he deserves? Please visit our website for his full story:

Meet our handsome boy, Asher. He’s 12 months old and loves attention, playing, and being stroked. He’d make an ideal family pet with owners who have plenty of time to spend with him. Asher is currently in foster care and loves spending time with the fosterers’ young son. He’ll play and snuggle on his bed! While he may prefer to spend most of his time indoors, a quiet outdoor space would be needed for when he does want to venture outside. You can read more about this lovely, affectionate boy on our website: rspca-craven.org.uk.

Meet Stitch, a lovely 6-month-old boy who adores fuss and attention. He’d make a great addition to any family. While he enjoys his outdoor adventures, he also loves his cozy home time too. He will need a safe area that’s away from any busy roads. Please check out our website for more info on this lovable little boy. rspca-craven.org.uk.

Please call 01254231118 if you would be interested in offering Penny her forever home.

Penny is a lovely older girl who is ready for her retirement home. Despite her age, she has no health issues, a brilliant personality, and needs an owner who can socialise her, take her for walks, and provide her with a warm, comfortable, and loving place to live. Penny does travel well in a car and happily settles in a car crate. Penny could live with children over 15 years old. We have reduced Penny’s adoption fee to £100. Please call 01254231118 if you would be interested in offering this lovely older girl a loving home.

*HAPPY NEW HOMES*

Here’s a selection of lovely cats who have recently found their forever homes through our branch. We’re grateful to all their new owners for giving rescue animals a second chance at a happy life and of course to our wonderful foster carers for looking after our cats until new homes come along. We always have more cats in urgent need of loving homes. Please visit our website to see our latest cats: rspca-craven.org.uk

Olly and Stitch are two young cats who can be adopted as a pair or separately. Stitch is a little more reserved but still enjoys cuddles. Ollie, on the other hand, is the most confident of the two. Both cats love going outside and will need a safe outdoor space away from busy roads. For more information, please visit their full listing at: rspca-craven.org.uk

Meet our young, beautiful, brindle boy, Broccoli. He is a lovely boy who is FULL of character and personality. He was born into RSPCA care, so he has very little life experience. Broccoli would thrive best with a family who has some experience with sighthounds and/or positive reinforcement training. He is a very bouncy boy, so can be strong on lead. Broccoli should be able to live with another dog of a similar size or smaller, with children of 14+, but definitely no cats. You can view his full listing here: rspca-craven.org.uk

Tilly is a lovely 3-year-old girl who’s currently in foster care and patiently waiting for her forever home. She enjoys having some alone time, but she also loves cuddles and shows her love with kisses and rolling over! She may get along with a friendly dog (after some careful introductions) and would need a safe outdoor space that’s away from busy roads. Check out her full listing here: rspca-craven.org.uk

🐾 FOREVER HOME NEEDED 🐾

Our gorgeous 1-year-old lurcher, Onion, is now ready to find his forever home. He was born into RSPCA care and has never known what a loving home is really all about. He loves his zoomies, squeaky toys, and training. He’ll thrive with another dog of similar nature, and it may help to build his confidence. He walks nicely on lead in quiet areas but can get nervous or overexcited in others but he shows great potential in his training. A home with older secondary school-age children would be best, and he also needs a cat-free home. Could you show this lovely boy some love and offer him a new home? See his full listing here: rspca-craven.org.uk

Sally is a gorgeous young and friendly cat who was sadly abandoned with her two kittens. She is a very sweet girl who likes a fuss and her ‘sun spots’ After looking after her kittens, it’s now her turn for some TLC. She will need a home with a safe area away from busy roads. Could you show her what a loving home is all about? rspca-craven.org.uk

Ollie & Stitch are two lovely 6-month-old boys who came into our branch together. They can be rehomed as a pair or separately. Ollie is the most confident of the two and likes a fuss. Stitch is a little more reserved, but he still loves attention. Both cats need access to the outdoors and will need a safe area that is away from busy roads. They are due their 2nd vaccinations on the 31st March but can be viewed and reserved, or even be brought back for the appointment if their new owners live locally. Please see our website for the cats’ full listings: rspca-craven.org.uk

*Cat Neutering Help*

If you have an un-neutered cat, PLEASE do the right thing and book it in for neutering. Rescue centres nationally and locally are bursting at the seams with unwanted cats, and this could be so easily avoided. If you would struggle with the cost of neutering, please contact us. We use vets in Skipton and Keighley for the procedures. Also, please keep your cat indoors until it has been neutered. Please share this post with anyone locally who may need assistance with the cost. We cover Keighley, Skipton, Ilkley, Barnoldswick & surrounding areas. Cats can breed from 4 months old - don’t get left holding the kittens!!

We have lots of cats looking for their new homes, including our lovely girl Tilly. She’s 3 years old and was sadly abandoned by her previous owners.

This gorgeous, fluffy girl is Leila. She is 8 years old and, although shy at first, she now likes a fuss from her foster carer and just needs time to settle down. She also needs a quieter home where she will get lots of attention, and due to her nature (and coat), we think she would be better as a permanent house cat, but if you have a secure garden or yard that she could explore under supervision, that would be ideal but not essential. Could you offer this lovely girl a new home? rspca-craven.org.uk
