Nala is described as a "vibrant and playful" dog who loves running around and playing with toys.

Due to a difficult start in life, she can be a bit wary when meeting new people, especially men.

However, once she gets to know and trust you, she'll reward you with cuddles and become a loyal friend for life.



Nala is looking for a quiet, adult-only home with a structured routine, where she can feel comfortable and relaxed.

She could share a home with calm and dog-confident older teenagers.

The RSPCA adds: "She arrived with a skin condition that has improved with treatment, though she may need further care.

"Our team will be happy to provide all the details to help her stay healthy and comfortable."

When Mr W T Bix first arrived at Ashley Heath he was a little nervous about loud sounds and fast movements.

Age - Five years old

Breed - Domestic Longhair crossbreed

Colour - Tortoiseshell

Freya is a cat who enjoys being around people but without too much hands-on affection.

She needs an owner who is happy to let you relax in her own way.

The RSPCA adds: "Freya has shown signs in the cattery that she prefers to be away from other cats so she will need to be the only cat in the home, and the area that she lives in would be best to have limited to no cats in the immediate area."

She is looking for a quiet, adult-only home with a patient and understanding adopter.
