Kitten Darcy is not only Mum Dizzy’s “mini-me” but they’re also shaping up to be BFFs… 👯

Usually cat mums start to have enough of their offspring once they reach around 6 weeks 😼, but Dizzy and Darcy really do seem to have an unbreakable bond ♥️ , so we are now considering whether it may be nice for them to stay together… 🧡🖤🤍

Dizzy gets sweeter and more loving by the day, and Darcy is a real little character, so if you’re looking to adopt a bonded pair of cats, and think torties really are terrific, then please do click the link to complete our online form: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=rspcaworcester&method=online_form_html&formid=1

It’s so it’s time for an Arthur update!!!

Arthur captured all of your hearts and made the national press after he was found with severe burns to his face and ears.

He spent almost two months with us, having his wounds treated and being nursed back to health, before going off to his forever home…and as you can see he’s settled in a treat!

His ears are looking brilliant, and he follows his new humans everywhere and snuggles on the bed at night…plus he’s also been keeping himself busy launching his very own Instagram page!!

If you’d like to follow his adventures, his Insta handle is - because we all know that the big celebs have “the real” before their names!! 😻

Some of you may remember Lulu's story...she was the cat who spent the first two years of her life confined to a box room...

A friendly, chatty and hugely affectionate girl, she was desperate for human contact and attention, and we expected her to find a home quickly and easily.

Sadly, this was not to be, as two weeks ago she was found collapsed in her pen and rushed to our vets. The initial suspicion was FIP, a very serious and dangerous condition for cats, but not all of her symptoms fit and she has since tested negative. Bloodwork and an ultrasound suggested that an issue with her liver was more likely, but it was clear that this was a particularly complex case.

Lulu has now been referred to a specialist vet, and on Tuesday she is booked in for extensive diagnostic tests, including blood screening, urinalysis, neurological exam, abdominal CT and an ultrasound guided percutaneous sampling of the liver.

We have been quoted somewhere in the region of £3800 for these tests, and anywhere up to £7000 should Lulu require surgery.

While this is a huge amount of money, life has not been very kind so far to this lovely little lady, and we feel that she truly deserves the chance to live a full and happy life...so we will do whatever it takes to make that happen, if at all possible!!

So we are appealing to you, our amazing supporters to please, please donate to Lulu's appeal if you can. Every single penny will make an enormous difference, no donation is too small, and if you are unable to pledge any pennies, then please do share Lulu's story with others.

Thank you! 🙏

Esther is a beautiful little lady with a fantastic patterned coat of ginger, tabby and white (a "torby" and white, perhaps?!).

She's raised three equally lovely little ladies who have inherited her colours and her lovely disposition, and while they have found a home together, now it's Esther's turn!

She and her little family were signed over to RSPCA Inspectors, and Esther has been an excellent mum, despite being tiny and very young herself (approximately 1 year), and consequently at times struggling to provide them with enough milk. We've been feeding her up though, and with her spay booked in for next week, she should soon start gaining some much needed weight.

Esther is a gentle, friendly girl with a strange penchant for taking naps in her litter tray! She has been good with other cats she has seen in the cattery, not even retaliating when a particularly rude cat hissed in her face!

She's always been really good natured with us too, and never had an issue with us handling her babies.

We think she could happily live with children, another cat and perhaps a cat-friendly dog.

To express an interest in offering her her forever home, please complete our online form: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=rspcaworcester&method=online_form_html&formid=1

Dizzy will shortly be searching for her forever home, and she’s had quite a tough time of it so she really does deserve the best!

Back in May this poor girl was hit by a car and left for dead in the road. Thankfully, a kind passerby stopped and rushed her to a vet where she was found not only to have sustained some head trauma, but also to be heavily pregnant.

Once well enough, she was transferred to our cattery but she was deeply unhappy and distrustful and we knew that it wasn’t the best place for her to give birth.

Thankfully, one of our amazing fosterers was able to offer her the sanctuary she needed, and while Dizzy was initially a hissy missy and not at all handleable, with time and patience she slowly thawed and now not only trusts her human to handle her babies, but also enjoys being stroked and brushed!

She has been an incredible mum to her five kittens, and the ease with which she gave birth and her ability at caring for them suggests that this has not been her first litter. We suspect that Dizzy had been living outside for some time; a cat some may have written off as “feral”. When we advertised her as a found stray, nobody came forward, but seeing her now and her five little bundles of joy, it’s heartbreaking to think that, had circumstances been different, no one would have missed her. 😢

Now though, Dizzy has shown her potential as a quiet but affectionate cat; one who, once she trusts you, will be loyal and show her human unconditional love.

Once she is spayed and has been fully vet checked (we need to ensure there has been no lasting damage from her accident), Dizzy will be ready to start over with a new life in a loving home.

To register an interest in her or her kittens, please complete our online form and one of our team will be in touch.

Is your dog microchipped?

If not, now's your chance to do something about it (no questions asked) and it won't cost you a penny!

Worcestershire Regulatory Services Dog Warden Team are hosting a series of free dog microchipping events in parks across the county this summer.

Their Senior Dog Warden, Pip Singleton, said: “Reuniting lost dogs with their owners is always a joy, and having up-to-date microchips makes it so much easier to do. An opportunity to have your dog microchipped for free is certainly something to make use of.”

Microchips are being offered in a no judgement, environment. It represents a great opportunity for dog owners to get this done to help reduce the risk of lost dogs not being reunited with owners.

Sessions will be running from 11.30am till 1.30pm in each of the locations. There is no need to prebook.
