We will have at times cats/kittens not suitable for rehoming to a house and need a home in a rural area, stable yard or a farm where they can have a safe space to live with the freedom to move about freely. These cats are not pets but often become very attached to the feeders. They will help with rodent control and love to hunt mice/rats. If you have a place for one or more of these cats please speak to one of the Cat Rehoming team to discuss.
a shy girl who needs a piggie-sister Say hi to Carol – she is a 1 year old guinea pig who was brought into the shelter after being found abandoned in a house. Poor Carol was absolutely terrified of everyone. She was in good health but living in very dirty conditions with no hay or proper food. Thankfully, after a thorough checkup with our vet team and treated for some mites, she was given a clean bill of health and is ready to find her forever home. Carol needs to go to a home with other female guinea pigs or neutered male guinea pigs. We think she is craving other guinea pig company and we want to help her with that as soon as possible. We think she’ll be a much happier pig once she has a sister or two! If you can offer this lovely sweet girl a home please apply for her 🙂 Thank you for choosing to adopt a guinea pig from the NSPCA. Please make sure to do your research on how to care for a small animal before considering adopting. We recommend guinea pigs be kept indoors with an enclosure that’s a minimum of 120 x 60cm with plenty of indoor free roam time. Guinea pigs are highly social animals and CANNOT live alone. Please only apply to adopt Carol if you have other female guinea pigs or neutered males that you can bond Carol with. Guinea pigs require proper housing, bedding, food, enrichment, exercise and vet visits. Small animals are not pets for young children to look after, all the family must be on board to look after and care for any new pet coming into the home. We have seen too many being abandoned so please make sure that you are in a position to look after them and provide them with everything they need. Reserved
the best girl who was a super mom to three boys! Queenie is a 8 month old Angora cross bun who came into the shelter after being found living in horrific conditions. Her gorgeous coat was completed matted and hard causing her alot of pain, and she was living in a tiny enclosure full of animal waste. To make matters worse, she had just given birth to three day-old babies when she was found. She was rushed up from the other end of Ireland to Dublin where she could get immediate care. We worried that with all the moving around that she would reject her babies, but despite everything she was the absolute best mom. Her boys grew up quickly and have since gone to a foster home until they’re old enough to be neutered and find forever homes. Queenie was very glad to have a pod all to herself and not have to share food anymore! She is now ready to find her own home and there is no bun who deserves it more than this absolute Queen 🙂 Thank you for choosing to adopt a small animal from the NSPCA. Please make sure to do your research on how to care for a small animal before considering adopting. We recommend rabbits be kept indoors with an enclosure that’s a minimum of 140 x 60cm for one rabbit with plenty of indoor free roam time. Rabbits require proper housing, bedding, food, enrichment, exercise and vet visits. Small animals are not pets for young children to look after, all the family must be on board to look after and care for any new pet coming into the home.

All our rabbits are spayed/neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. Reserved
a piggie with luscious locks! Meet Gambon – he is a male guinea who came into the shelter from another rescue. We estimate he is around 1.5 years old. Gambon is a stunning guinea pig with such a lovely shiny coat – and he knows it! He certainly knows how to work a camera – just look at that over-the-shoulder snap! Gambon is quite a dominant guinea pig so would do well in a home with younger males or a home where he could be neutered and live with females. He’d be best suited with someone who has had guinea pigs before and has some experience bonding them. No doubt he’ll be a head-turner wherever he goes 🙂 Guinea pigs are highly social animals and need to live with other guinea pigs. Please only apply for Gambon if you have other male guinea pigs or are open to neutering Gambon so he can live with females. Thank you for choosing to adopt a small animal from the NSPCA. Please make sure to do your research on how to care for a small animal before considering adopting. We recommend guinea pigs be kept indoors with an enclosure that’s a minimum of 140 x 60cm for two guinea pigs with plenty of opportunities to roam in a larger space with tunnels, hides and things to forage in and search for food. Guinea pigs require proper housing, bedding, food, enrichment, exercise and vet visits. They are also very shy animals.

a spikey-haired boy with a sweet personality Varsity is a male guinea pig who came into the shelter from another rescue. We estimate he is about 1.5 years old. Thankfully coming in to us he had no health concerns and is slowly settling into shelter life. Like all guinea pigs, Varsity will need a home with other male guinea pigs or female guinea pigs if he gets neutered. He is a gorgeous boy and will make a lovely addition to an existing piggie herd! Guinea pigs are highly social animals and need to live with other guinea pigs. Please only apply for Varsity if you have other male guinea pigs or are open to neutering Varsity so he can live with females. Thank you for choosing to adopt a small animal from the NSPCA.
