The RSPCA is very well known for its inspectorate and prosecutions work, but we are less well known for our rehoming work.

This is why we’ve created Pet Adoption Week (PAW) – to provide an opportunity for the RSPCA as a whole to spread the word about the important rehoming work carried out by our animal centres and branches. While we hope this will become an annual event for the RSPCA, we also want to use this year’s PAW to relaunch the RSPCA’s rehoming brand.

The aim of PAW is to encourage more people to find out about adopting an animal (and not just cats and dogs) from the RSPCA and ultimately to find more homes for the animals in our care.
