# As of April we will now start to have a Small Animal Days on the 1st & 3rd saturday of every month # If you see an animal on the website that you REALLY REALLY are interested in then please call us as we can often make arrangements to meet that particular animal at the centre or in the foster home. Any small animals taken into the RSPCA are placed with Foster carers and on the 1st & 3rd Saturday of the month Rabbits, Rats, Guinea Pigs, Hamsters etc are brought to the Brent Knoll Centre at the above address. The animals are on view from 11am to 1pm and from 1.30pm to 4pm and available for adoption. Our team of experts are on hand to give help and advise on the welfare and upkeep of any small animals. So if you have never owned a small animal and don't know where to start, please come along and let us help you. |
We are always in need of good Foster Homes for Small Animals. If you think you can help, please contact the RSPCA Centre on 01278 782671.

Small Animal Cages The RSPCA has been campaigning for a better standard of living for small animals. Small animal cages are a part of this. We have guidelines in place, regarding this accommodation. As far as we are concerned the BIGGER the BETTER!! Syrian Hamsters (L x W x H) Solitary breed (must live singly)Cage approx size - 3sq ft (2ft6'' x 1ft 3'' x 1ft 3'' on 1 level) OR (1ft 3'' x 1ft 2'' on 2 levels). Russian Hamsters & Mice (L x W x H) Sociable species (Like to live in pairs) Same as syrian hamsters, however this cage size can accommodate a pair of them. A glass tank is ideal for these species. A mesh secure lid for good ventilation is required. Cage approx size - 3sq ft (2ft6'' x 1ft 3'' x 1ft 3'' on 1 level) OR (1ft 3'' x 1ft 2'' on 2 levels). Rats (L x W x H) Sociable species (Like to live in pairs/trios/groups) Cage approx size - 6sq ft (3ft x 2ft on 1 level) OR (2ft 6'' x 1ft 6'' x 3-4ft high on 2 levels). Gerbils (L x W x H) Sociable species (Like to live in pairs/trios/groups) Gerbils require a 'Gerbilarium' A fish tank is ideal for this, with a mesh secure lid for good ventilation. Gerbils love to dig and a tank is ideal for you to watch them!! Gerbilarium approx size - 2.7 sq ft (2ft x 1ft 4'' x 1ft 3'' on 1 level). Chinchillas/Degus (L x W x H) Sociable species (Like to live in pairs/trios/groups) Cage approx size - 6sq ft * Minimum 4ft high (i.e. 3ft x 2ft x4ft ). PLEASE NOTE that these sizes are GUIDELINES and there will always be an element of flexibility providing good welfare standards can be maintained. We understand that this can all be a bit confusing! For more details or advice come to our Small Animal Days or give us a call on 01278 782671.

Winston came to us with bad wheezy breathing. He has now had a course of treatment and although is much better he will not be cured.

Degus, Gerbils and Rats They do not always attend the Small Animal Days as it is quite stressful for them. Therefore they are best viewed by appointment at the centre or in the foster home. If you are interested in these fun packed rodents then give us a call - 01278 782671.
