RSPCA West Dorset Branch is a separate charity affiliated to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA). We cover the towns of Dorchester, Bridport, Weymouth, Portland, Lyme Regis, Charmouth, Sherborne and Axminster (Devon) as well as all the surrounding villages and hamlets. Our main priorities are the welfare and rehoming of local animals. We raise our funds within the Branch boundaries and all money raised is spent within the area. We are responsible for "Taylors Animal Rehoming Centre" at Kingston Maurward, Dorchester. |
If you wish to report an Animal Emergency or have concerns regarding the welfare of an animal please telephone 0300 1234 999. Please also call this number if you need to have an unowned or wild animal collected by an RSPCA Animal Collection Officer. PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL US REGARDING EMERGENCIES OR CRUELTY AS THIS IS NOT THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY OF DEALING WITH SUCH MATTERS. CALL 0300 1234 999 AND REPORT THE MATTER TO THE RSPCA NATIONAL CALL CENTRE. THANK YOU. |

RSPCA WEST DORSET BRANCH PRIVACY POLICY RSPCA TAYLORS REHOMING CENTRE Please help us survive the coronavirus crisis!
Click here for our current appeal total, and photos of the animals you can help With our three charity shops closed we have lost our most vital source of income for the animals at Taylors Our centre is full, and the animals need food and veterinary care Any donation you can make during this incredibly difficult time would be massively appreciated You can donate directly via the Paypal link below, via credit or debit card, whether or not you have a Paypal account Please email or phone us on 01305 259672 if you would prefer to pay by phone or cheque - we prefer these methods of payment as the fees are little lower and more money goes directly to help the animals We might not answer if we are busy with the animals, but please leave a message and we will call you right back The future of Taylors depends upon the generosity of our supporters On behalf of the animals, thank you so much
Your donations will help us to keep caring for animals like Beattie It was really touch and go for Beattie; when he came to Taylors he was anaemic from having fleas and was just 25% of his expected body weight. Both of his eyes were closed from the flu, one of them had a really bad ulcer on it, and he was struggling to breathe. Beattie has had four different types of antibiotics in the four months that we have been caring for him, along with medicated eye drops. His eyes have now cleared, and the ulcer has healed. He is still on antibiotics and medicated nasal drops, his breathing is still laboured if he stops his antibiotics. He is happy and settled other than his breathing which we need to get right before he can have his vaccinations.
Thank you to everyone who entered our Online Pet Show Here are the First Place winning photos from all the categories!
Changes to Taylor's Opening Times Sometimes we have to unavoidably alter our regular opening hours Details will appear here TAYLORS REHOMING CENTRE IS CURRENTLY CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC DUE TO CORONAVIRUS You may email us on mail@westdorsetrspca.org or phone 01305 259672 OUR SHOPS IN BRIDPORT, DORCHESTER AND SHERBORNE HAVE NOW BEEN CLOSED DUE TO CORONAVIRUS We have now lost our most significant source of income and will of course be looking to re-open as soon as possible. We still have many, many animals at Taylors who need our care at this difficult time, and the cost of providing the care and veterinary attention they need has not gone away. Please do consider making a small donation at this difficult time, it really could be a lifeline for the animals. Thank you
OUR REHOMING FIGURES
NEEDED -
DONATED CAT FOOD We are in desperate need of more donated cat food for the residents at Taylor's. Can you help? Our cats are fed exclusively on Whiskas and Felix, as using a variety of cat foods can upset their tummies. If you could possibly donate a few cans or pouches, we would be extremely grateful. Food can be dropped off at Taylor's, or at any of our Charity Shops in Dorchester, Bridport and Sherborne. If you live too far away, you can donate cat food money by PayPal or Wonderful - just remember to send us a message to say that's what your donation is for. Thank you very much!

COULD YOU CROCHET A GUINEA PIG FOR TAYLORS?

Full instructions can be found here:- GUINEA PIG PATTERN AT RAVELRY.COM Completed pigs can be sent to Taylors or handed in at one of our shops. All money raised by sale of piggies will help our small animals at Taylors CALLING ALL KNITTERS
Can you help our cats & kittens feel snug and safe, whilst they await a new home. We need knitted or crocheted blankets for the cats to curl up on in their cat beds. Ideally they should measure 1 metre square (2 1/2 - 3 foot) so that they cover the whole cat bed or shelf. The blankets can be any colours and made out of any type of wool. A lot of the blankets that people make for us are made up of knitted squares and of all types of odd wool. We are always in need of lots of blankets, as they only have a limited shelf life, as they need to be washed at high temperatures to kill any germs, and can get quite furry after a while. Out of all the animal bedding we have here, these are what our cats prefer!!!!! If you can't knit, and would like to donate any wool for others to make us blankets, then please contact the Centre on 01305 259672 or call into our shops in Dorchester, Bridport and Sherborne. ........................ Could you knit some lovely dog coats to sell in our shops? They are always popular with our customers (and their dogs!) and we would be very grateful for any you would like to knit and donate.
