Patricia and Tallulah are a bonded pair believed to be mother and daughter. The RSPCA said they definitely need to be rehomed together. Patricia and Tallulah have needed a lot of veterinary treatment since arriving at the shelter. Despite this, they are lovely, happy girls who enjoy human company and want to be with each other. Patricia is a little more sensitive and can be more shy in new situations. She can be anxious around other dogs and doesn't really know how to behave around them. Both girls would benefit from some further socialisation. The charity said they love their food and treats and Patricia likes to play football. They are not quite ready for a new home yet but will be available soon.

Deer trapped between two walls voted most daring RSPCA rescue of 2024

A distressed deer needed urgent help after being found wedged in a tight gap behind a metal fence (pictured above). The RSPCA and Surrey Fire & Rescue Service rushed to the Birches Industrial Estate in East Grinstead, West Sussex, on 31 May to help the deer. RSPCA Animal Rescue Office Chloe Wilson said: “The deer was a big boy so we have no idea how he managed to squeeze into such a tight gap. “After we cut the gate away, I checked the deer over and he had superficial wounds, which I treated on the scene before letting him go - he ran off so fast I didn’t get a chance to say bye!”
