Whilst some cats don't have to wait long for a home, some stay in our care for months and it's important we provide as much enrichment as possible. Like Dash. He's had no interest since being with us and we'd like that to change. Meet him! 👉 #Caturday

Leo looks like he's got a few stories to tell. 📚 At 14, he's looking for a peaceful home to enjoy his golden years in but don't let his age fool you! He'll still be a very active member of the family. ❤ Can you help? 👉 #Caturday #Ragdoll #Sheffield

Arriving in our care collapsed and suffering from pneumonia, it was touch and go for Garfield. Bought online, this tiny kitten was only four weeks old. Thankfully he started improving with antibiotics and at 10 weeks old, he went off to a new home of his own! 🧡 #KissAGingerDay

As sweet as her name suggests, Cookie is an loving girl and adores playing with her feather toy before settling down on your lap. ❤ Like many cats, she's nervous of loud noises and sudden movements and needs a calm home where she relax. Can you help? 👉

Staffies can be very misunderstood dogs and are sadly one of the most unwanted breeds. 💔 Being labelled as aggressive couldn't be further than the truth and in reality, their sweet nature makes them a very loving pet. 💙 #staffylove

Please don't forget about senior pets. 💔 We see older pets waiting for a home more than most. Always remember that pets like Charcoal have just as much love to give! 😻

Cinders was left with a note that read, "I don't have a choice..." 💔 Sadly, we are seeing more pets abandoned because their owners have no other option, especially at this time of year. Luckily for Cinders, she was in good health and soon went off to a new home. 🐾 #Caturday

Found tied to a lampost in the pouring rain, Boris was terrified and wondered why he was all alone. Our team showered him with love and it wasn’t long before Boris caught the eye of his new owners! 💙 #MondayMotivation

When her mum suffered from a traumatic labour, we expected the worst. 💔 But, despite all odds, Martha fought and survived. Weighing less than a hamster, our incredible team gave round-the-clock care and today she's celebrating her 1st birthday! 🎉 #InternationalPuppyDay

Dumped in an alleyway in a sealed cardboard box, it's a miracle that Ember and Spark survived. Only young cats, this pair had already experienced so much trauma. 💔 But our team showered them with TLC, and now this duo are ready for a second chance! 👉

With an increase in irresponsible breeders and puppy farms, we're concerned about @bbcthree 's recently commissioned programme, 'Will My Puppies Make Me Rich?' Sadly, this glamourises breeding and could lead to more welfare issues. 💔 We've written to the programme-makers.

Left in a box at just eight weeks old, this poor girl was crying out for attention so much following her ordeal. 💔 Named Siren because of her vocal nature, we gave her plenty of love and found her a loving home. #Caturday
