The Stray Pets Rescue Club is our monthly profile of animals in and around the Harrogate district, in desperate need of a loving home. Could you help Albert, Una, or best friends Zeb and Spike?

Una



Age: 4 years old

Una’s story: This beautiful girl arrived in Harrogate about a month ago from Romania. The volunteers at Miss Mollie's Rescue think her owner turned her onto the streets, where she was caught by the dog catcher and thrown into the kill kennels.

Temperament: Una can be quite timid, but with some patience and time she will learn how to trust again.

Ideal home: Because of Una's tough start in life, she will need a quiet, adult-only home. She'll also need lots of patience, time and love to help build her trust and confidence.

If Una could become part of your family, get in touch with Miss Mollie’s Rescue. 




Zeb & Spike 



Age: 3 and 8 years old

Zeb & Spike's story: These boys came to the RSPCA when they were abandoned by their previous owner, along with four other cats. They were all in a terrible condition and very hungry. They've now put weight on and are ready to enjoy life in their new home.

Temperament: Both Zeb and Spike can be a bit nervous when adjusting to a new environment. Spike (black) is more confident, and enjoys a fuss. Zeb will watch from a distance but come for a little fuss if he's feeling brave; with Spike at his side, he'll be just fine.

Ideal home: Zeb and Spike will need to remain as permanent house cats. They can live with other cats and children aged over 14 as long as they understand this pair will need time to settle in.

If you could help Zeb and Spike feel safe in a loving home, contact RSPCA York, Harrogate and District branch. 




Albert



Age: 14 months old

Albert's story: Albert has had a tough time in his short life, and hasn't;t been in a home since he was 10 days old. He's had quite a sheltered life and isn't used to the big, wide world.

Temperament: He can be a bit unsure of new people initially, but with a bit of time you'll see his fun and affectionate personality shine through.

Ideal home: He'lll need a home with a secure garden with no other dogs, and a family who can be around him a lot of the time initially. Any children at home need to be over 13. Albert also has problems with his patellas that mean he'll need restricted exercise long-term.

If Albert is the missing piece of your jigsaw, visit Dogs Trust Leeds.
