Dermot Murphy, RSPCA inspectorate commissioner, mentioned: “We have even more animals in need of help coming into our care – but at the same time rehoming has been declining sharply, meaning thousands fewer rescue pets are being adopted and our branches and centres are full to bursting.
“We are also faced with increased bills and less donations due to the cost of living crisis which is one of the biggest challenges facing animal welfare right now – and this economic hardship is continuing into our 200th anniversary year.
“We’ve been changing industries, laws, minds, and animals’ lives for 200 years. Together, there are actions, big and small, we can take to create a better world for every animal.”
The latest available figures present that within the ten years up till the top of 2022 new properties have been discovered for 15, 898 animals within the county and the centres have additionally supplied 16, 448 neuters and 11, 866 microchips. Nationally, the charity has rehomed 405,839 pets in want of a brand new home since 2013 due to its community of 140 branches and animal centres throughout England and Wales – which equates to 111 animals day-after-day.
