The Peterborough Telegraph is running regular spotlights on animals that need new homes to support the work of animal charities in the Peterborough area.
There are many that do such a great job of rescuing and rehoming animals, such as the Peterborough and District Branch of the RSPCA and Wood Green The Animals Charity. Both have continued to operate throughout lockdown and within a small radius are still permitted to rehome these animals.
Below are a selection of those animals that are less common and smaller but no less rewarding to have as pets and are in need of their forever home.
To find more details about the birds and to search for more rescue animals, visit www.rspca.org.uk/findapet/rehomeapet/process or to enquire about any of the other animals visit woodgreen.org.uk/find-a-pet/find-an-outdoor-pet.
1. Snowy - New Zealand (2 years 4 months)
Salem and Snowy are looking for their forever home together! They are a very inquisitive pair who love to explore everything and anything. They are slightly larger bunnies so need plenty of open space to run and hop around in. They really enjoy having high enrichment to jump on and love munching on some forage treats! Photo: Midlands
2. Bean (2 months)
Bean and her 5 other female friends are looking for their forever home, either as a larger group together or as a trio. They all love to have lots to explore such as tubes and toys. They also like having some where safe and snuggly to sleep together. Photo: Midlands
