Here is a selection of animals from the RSPCA branches in Essex and the affiliated Danaher Animal Home who are looking for a forever home.

There are some animals from the Essex South, Southend & District branches, the South West branch and the Danaher Animal Home

If you think you would be able to rehome one of them go to either the Essex South, Southend & District branch, the South West branch, or the Danaher Animal Home website for details.

You can also donate to charities to help them carry on their rescue work at the same websites.

Breed - Domestic Shorthair crossbreed

Colour - Tricolour

Pumpkin was found wandering the streets living as a stray and is now looking for a permanent home.

She is described by the RSPCA as an "extremely sociable cat" who loves nothing more than snuggling up in a warm lap.

It would be best for Pumpkin to be the only cat in the home, and if she could get outside to explore.
