Several pets in Sussex are looking for their forever homes, including at the Sussex North & Brighton branch of the RSPCA.

Whether you want to adopt a dog, cat, rabbit or guinea pig, there is plenty of choice.

A few animals from the branch are listed below but more can be found on the centre's website.

To help the Sussex North & Brighton branch carry on their work you can donate to them at the website here.

Digger

Gender - Male

Age - Six to 12 months old

Breed - Crossbreed/Unknown crossbreed

Colour - Black and White

Digger came into the care of the RSPCA after being rescued from a housefire which caused him to have smoke inhalation and ulcers in both eyes.

He has recovered well since then and is described as an "affectionate pup, who loves a cuddle and a play".



His training is going well with his recalls and lead walking and he has also mastered sit, paw and touch.

The RSPCA adds: "Likely as a result of poor socialisation, Digger likes other dogs, but can be very over the top around them and tends to try to run into greetings at 100 miles an hour.

"This is being worked on whilst he is in our care, but it is likely this will need to continue in his new home."

Digger could maybe live with confident older children but could not live with cats or small animals.

Leon

Gender - Male

Age - Seven years old

Breed - French Bulldog

Colour - Brindle

If you want to adopt Leon you can view their full profile here.

Leon was a bit shy when first arriving in the care of the RSPCA but can be quite a "happy boy" once he's made friends with you.

He is housetrained, knows how to sit and is used to being left for a few hours on his own.

Leon is looking for an experienced, adult home with someone who has dealt with behavioural problems before.

He will need to be the only pet and can be reactive to other dogs when on the lead, especially larger ones.

Molly

Gender - Female

Age - 11 years old

Breed - Domestic Shorthair crossbreed

Colour - Black and White

If you want to adopt Molly you can view their full profile here.

Molly came into the care of the RSPCA as her previous owner had sadly passed away.

She has settled into a routine in the cattery but she enjoys time outside of her pen the most.

Molly enjoys a fuss on her terms as she will have a little purr and stroke but likewise knows when she has had enough.

She will need a calm home as she is used to only living with one or two people.

Alf and Sarina

Gender - Male (Alf) and Female (Sarina)

Age - Four years old

Breed - Crossbreed

Colour - White

If you want to adopt Alf and Sarina you can view their full profile here.

Alf and Sarina came into the care of the RSPCA after being found abandoned and are looking for a home together.

The centre believes both of them were well-looked after before arriving to us as they were clean and Alf had been neutered.

Ideally, they would go to an experienced rabbit home as Sarina has a stubborn character and "will run rings round her owners if they let her".

Both rabbits would benefit from having a secure area to run around in outside.
