The Middlesex North West Branch of the RSPCA is a locally based animal welfare charity that works to prevent cruelty to and suffering of animals. Every year we rescue and rehome hundreds of unwanted, stray and abandoned animals. In addition to this we assist many animals whose owners cannot afford the full costs of veterinary treatment that their animals require.

We employ three animal welfare officers who work out in the communities we serve in the London Boroughs of Brent, Harrow and Hillingdon (north of the A40), and Watford (including Bushey and Oxhey), Rickmansworth, St Albans and Radlett in South Hertfordshire. Through this proactive approach to animal welfare work we are able to assist animals and their owners quickly and effectively when the need arises.

The Branch spends about £4,000 a week on the animal welfare work we carry out. We raise these funds through a variety of events we run through the year, our five charity shops, and through donations and legacies we receive from the public. Through this website you can find out how to volunteer to support the Branch, how you can donate to the Branch and you can view the animals we currently have available for adoption, all of whom urgently need new homes. You can also find information about becoming a member of the Branch.

16 Jan, 2012 - NERVOUS CATS LOVE TOO!!!

Due to the type of work the RSPCA carries out, such as rescuing abandoned and stray animals, removing animals from what can be very unsuitable homes, and even rescuing abused or neglected animals. It does mean that a lot of the cats we have in our care have had very poor upbringing, where they have not only had competition for food but also very little love and attention.

These cats all need our help, yes they may take a little longer than most to settle into a new home, but with a little extra love and time they will blossom and grow into fantastic companions. The really good news is that these cats make fantastic companions to other cats. they love their company and will learn how to act and to do things from an existing cat. Including how to get you wrapped round their little paw!

When Custard Cream came into our care she was already 5 mths old, she came from a multi cat household, where we have dealt with over 50 cats so far. As with many cats from this sort of environment Custard Cream was very nervous and used to being handled. usually there are a couple of cats in these sorts of homes, the original cats, who are nice and friendly, then with every subsequent litter born, the cats get less and less handling from their owners and are more and more nervous.

This is Custard Creams story…..

18 Oct, 2011 - SENIOR KITIZENS IN NEED OF EXTRA LOVING HOMES!!

Don”t overlook the older cats in our care!!!!!
Lots looking for love, luxury and pampering!

Please spare a thought for some of the older cats in our care, they are all very deserving and often get over looked as many people favour the younger ones.

We have many older cats in our care all are extremely lovely, many have out lived their owners and are now having to find new homes - never through any falt of their own.
Older cats are usually EXTREMELY affectionate and very loving, and are more likely to be lap cats than the young crazy ones that can”t keep still for 1 second.
