    The Stray Pets Rescue Club is our monthly pet profile of animals in desperate need of a loving home. This month, rottweiler Troy, cockatiel Twiglet, and a trio of degus need your help. 

    Troy, Rottweiler


    Age: 9

    Troy's story: Troy arrived at Dogs Trust Leeds at the beginning of December 2020. This handsome boy is currently staying with a foster carer on the Dogs Trust Leeds Home From Home fostering programme.

    Temperament: Troy is a very friendly and loving boy who enjoys a fuss being made over him and a good snuggle.

    Ideal home: Troy would love a new adult-only home with owners who will be around all the time, until he is ready to start slowly building up time spent on his own. Although he won’t be able to go on long walks due to an ongoing medical condition, he’d love a nice secure garden where he can sniff around, play with his toys and laze in the sunshine on sunny days.

    To find out more about Troy and the adoption process, visit Dogs Trust Leeds.



    Fido, Rex and Rover, Degus 


    Age: Young adults

    Fido, Rex and Rover's story: Degus are incredibly sociable creatures, and Fido, Rex and Rover have bonded during their stay at RSPCA York, Harrogate and District and they are now ready to start a new chapter in a forever home.

    Temperament: These are sweet and inquisitive degus who are slowly settling down and starting to come out of their shells.

    Ideal home: Fido, Rex and Rover will need experienced adopters as they have sadly not had much handling before arriving at the centre. They will need time and patience to help them overcome their insecurities.

    To find out more about the adoption process, visit RSPCA York, Harrogate and District. 



    Twiglet, Cockatiel 


    Age: Adult

    Twiglet's story: Twiglet currently lives in the aviary at the RSPCA York, Harrogate and District branch.

    Temperament: Twiglet is a busy little cockatiel who loves flying about the aviary. He is very chatty, and loves talking to all the other birds there.

    Ideal home: Twiglet's new forever home needs to have an aviary where there are other cockatiels. Please note Twiglet can not be re homed with an adopter wanting to keep him in a cage.

     

    To find out more about Twiglet and the adoption process, visit RSPCA York, Harrogate and District.
