RSPCA Tameside and Glossop

RSPCA Tameside and Glossop A self-funding branch of the RSPCA - providing care and loving homes for rescued animals.

Animals in branch care are looked after by fosterers and private boarding. For more information about adoption, volunteering, how you can help and branch policies please visit our website.

**PLEASE NOTE** Our branch address is purely for correspondence and is NOT where our animals are kept. Most dogs are cared for by volunteer foster carers in their own homes and our cats are privately boarded a

nd also cared for by volunteer fosterers. An appointment must be made directly with us in order to meet any animal in our care.

Being involved with rescue animals is incredible hard. There is so many aspects needed to keep everything going.
We are incredibly lucky to have so many fantastic followers and supporters. Our volunteers give up so much time to help the residents in our care. Our fosterers who open their homes to help rehabilitate dogs, cats, kittens and puppies. Our transportation helpers and home visitors.. so many people give up their time to play an enormous part in the big picture. People running marathons and jumping out of planes to help raise money!
It’s not just us that do all this. There are hundreds of other rescues doing the exact same things. We are all constantly asking for help or support in one way or another.
So… on behalf of ourselves and every other rescue…. Thank you! We are all working for the same end goal. ….helping animals in need.
I know we don’t say ‘thank you’ enough to everyone. But we really do appreciate everything everyone does to support us and I’m sure other rescues feel the same 😊

Our Ginger kittens.
We have 2 girls & 1 boy. All 3 are still at the vets as they were only neutered this afternoon. Unfortunately, their mum was unable to feed them and they have all been hand reared by, firstly one of the vets from Medivet and then one of our amazing fosterers.
All 3 are super friendly, litter trained, vaccinated, microchipped and fully treated for flea & worms.
These are mischievous kittens, who will need someone around most of the time or they will end up stuck behind a washing machine or on top of a curtain pole! They really are a busy trio!!

£95 each adoption fee applies.

So much going on here 🙀
And our fosterers are definitely being kept super busy!!
We have 3 ginger kittens available to adopt from this weekend (pictures etc.. tomorrow)
The c section mum is doing amazing and the kittens are starting to eat proper food now.
We have 4 kittens moving to foster this weekend to get used to household life.
We’ve still got mums popping kittens out! (We don’t abort heavily pregnant cats without a medical reason)
A mum and 2 kittens joined us from the animal hospital but unfortunately one of the kittens has an eye infection, so they are in isolation and receiving medication.
2 more kittens joined us from White Croft vets today, they also need eye medication before they can be moved to foster.
We really are flat out at the minute.
Thank goodness we have such an amazing team and the absolute best support from all our followers 😊

Here’s a sneak of the kittens available this weekend ☺️ more details later 😁

Last month an amazing lady ran the London marathon to raise some desperately needed funds for us!!! She absolutely smashed it and we will share the final amount very soon! ☺️
This month another chap ran the Manchester half marathon, again raising much needed funds. He also did amazing 😁
Support like this helps us to help more and more cats, dogs, puppies and kittens, change from second hand animals into first class family members.
Our biggest outgoing expense is, vet bills.
It’s always ongoing… neuters, vaccinations, flea & worm treatment and general health checks.
Animals join us broken and damaged from their past. It takes time to help them trust people and feel safe.
The lady who ran the marathon, adopted 2 such puppies. When they joined us, they had never seen the outside world. They had never played with toys. They needed so much work and time to build their confidence. Today, they are very different dogs to the scared puppies that arrived 😁
Tomorrow we will post a new fundraiser! This one is unbelievable 🙀

Wales banned Greyhound racing, now it's England's turn...

Back in March, greyhound racing was officially voted to be banned in Wales, becoming the first nation in the UK to outlaw the practice👏

As part of the Cut The Chase coalition, we’ve spent years advocating for greyhounds, who have suffered for far too long in the name of entertainment, and there’s still work to do.

We have big plans ahead, and we need you with us.

Hi everyone, I am called McFly and even though I am just 7 months old I am really trying to be a good boy in my foster home. I do know to go outside to the toilet and not to chew the furniture but it is quite hard as I am still only young. I play with my rope and other soft toys but they aren't as good as those plasticky gardening shoes.

When I go outside I am so excited by everything I see and hear. I try to pull my foster mum over to every dog we pass just to play with them. Being calm is not in my nature and really hard as not many dogs like to be bumped against, even though they know I just want to play and their humans are quite put out if I try to jump up at them too. I now weigh 18.2kg so quite a lot to land on people at 30mph.

I would love a home with a well-fenced garden so I can zoom around as much as possible then, my foster mum says, I can calm down and walk nicely on my lead.

Apparently, the people in the branch say that I really need an experienced Lurcher home, where people know what young dogs can get up to and what we need to keep us happy and calm. Very young children are not advised as I really don't realise how easily I can knock people over when I try to get through a doorway before everyone else and jump on the sofa to bounce off the cushions and the people who are sitting on it.

So this is what the humans and the type of home and family they would like for me.

An adult only home or one with older teenage (over 14) children. Where the humans like to walk "A LOT" along with a well-fenced garden with access to country paths. Even better would be a family with an older (not too old as I would love to play) lurcher or similar sized dog who will not put up with my lack of off switch. Definitely no cats or small furries please.

If you are interested in me please send an email to ask for the branch's perfect match form
