If you're looking to adopt a pet, then plenty of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more are hoping to find new homes in some of Sussex's RSPCA branches.
Rehoming a pet can be a great way to restore its confidence after potentially difficult circumstances.
A few animals from the Brighton & The Heart of Sussex branch and the Sussex West branch are listed below, but more can be found on the centre's website.
To help the RSPCA branches carry on their work, you can donate to them on the websites here and here.
Storm
Gender - Female
Age - Three years old
Breed - Crossbreed/Unknown
Colour - Chocolate
If you want to adopt Storm you can view their full profile here.
Storm came into the care of the RSPCA after being severely neglected, but has now gotten back to full health.
She is described as a cheeky and fun-loving dog who loves her toys and running about.
Storm had lived quite a sheltered life prior to coming to the RSPCA and was exposed to very little of the outside world.
Therefore, this has led her to be very worried and fearful of strangers, so she needs to slowly get to know people to build trust.
She will require an adult-only home with no other animals in a quiet suburban or rural location with access to quiet walking areas.
The RSPCA adds: "She must have her own private, very secure garden. Storm is muzzle trained and walks very happily with it on."
Misty
Gender - Female
Age - Five years old
Breed - Domestic semi-crossbreed
Colour - Tabby
If you want to adopt Misty you can view their full profile here.
Misty was a shy and unsure cat when initially arriving at the RSPCA, but has shown herself to be quite friendly over time.
In her next home, she would benefit from there being no children around, as she will need a space with a gentle atmosphere.
The RSPCA adds: "She will make a wonderful companion to someone who is looking for a soft-natured, gentle cat."
Kao
Gender - Male
Age - Two years old
Breed - Sphynx
Colour - Black and Grey
If you want to adopt Kao you can view their full profile here.
Kao is described as a "charismatic chap" who loves people and wants to be around them all day.
He will need to be the only pet in a new home and not left alone for long periods of time.
Kao will need a spacious indoor environment, with a preference for a cat-contained garden or large catio.
The RSPCA adds: "He has previously struggled living in a flat, so this time we are hoping to get Kao into a home that is big enough to suit his larger-than-life personality."

Pashmina and Thumper
Gender - Male (Thumper) and Female (Pashmina)
Age - Seven years old (Pashmina) and four years old (Thumper)
Breed - English Spot (Pashmina) and crossbreed (Thumper)
Colour - White (Pashmina) and Brown (Thumper)
If you want to adopt Pashmina and Thumper you can view their full profile here.
Pashmina and Thumper came into the care of the RSPCA from another rescue after they were no longer wanted by a previous owner.
As they are bonded together, they are looking to find a new home as a pair.
The RSPCA adds: "Pashmina is the larger of the two and officially the one in charge! Thumper is the smaller bunny who follows her lead.
"They can both be a bit touchy when we clean their pen but they soon walk away and find a better area to mooch about in."
