Frightened. Beaten. Broken.

Out of sight, Bernie suffered terrible cruelty and beatings. Living in fear for weeks, Bernie sustained many heartbreaking injuries, including bleeding eyes, facial fractures and broken ribs. Our inspector who rescued the eleven-month-old recalls, “I’m so glad we were able to intervene and get Bernie to safety”.

Our expert vets provided the urgent treatment Bernie desperately needed and he was nursed back to health in our animal centre. Thankfully he made a full recovery. But this summer, many more animals are suffering and urgently need our help before it’s too late.

Please help rescue more animals like Bernie, with a monthly gift of £3.

Loki didn't deserve cruelty

Six month-old Loki didn't deserve to have his loyalty repaid with abuse when he suffered multiple broken bones and horrendous swellings all over his body. His RSPCA rescuer said they had never seen anything like it. The suffering Loki endured was utterly heartbreaking.

Our dedicated vets and carers gave him emergency treatment and nursed him back to health. Thankfully his wounds have healed. But more animals like Loki are still suffering. They need our help before it’s too late.

No animal deserves cruelty. They all deserve our loving care and protection. But keeping our animal rescuers on the road, bringing animals to safety and providing vital medical care costs money. We simply can’t do it without the kindness of people like you. 

Without supporters' donations, we can’t help those animals like Loki who’ve faced the worst abuse. Could you consider making a donation to help us be there for every kind of animal?
