Bath Cats and Dogs Home: The Wiltshire pets that need rehoming

The home takes in around 1,000 pets every year, covering Bath, north east Somerset and parts of Wiltshire.

It also reunites stray animals with owners and manage adoption of rescue pets to new homes across teh region.

Here are a few of the dogs and cats that have been rescued and given to the home by Wiltshire Council's Dog Warden service recently:

Dogs

Blaze

Blaze is a 4-year-old Terrier (Staffordshire Bull) cross and is looking for a new start.

He can be very excitable as most Bull breeds can be but also has a wonderfully affectionate side. Blaze will be a loyal companion to you.

He loves to play with all toys but is definitely a fan of tennis balls, choosing to hoard them all in his bed!

However, he doesn’t enjoy meeting other dogs and would only be suitable for a family with teenage children.

Flyn

Flyn is a three year old Terrier (Patterdale) who is always on the go! You'll be asked for playtimes and this is a great way to become his friend.

Flyn is quite anxious on the whole, so you'll need to be understanding of his boundaries and abilities - but they are sure to expand as he becomes part of the family.

Keeping life steady and calm for Flyn is what he needs. He cannot live with other dogs but is suitable for a family with teenagers.

Cats

Casper

Casper is a three-year-old short hair cat. He’s quiet and calm and would like a home that matches his personality. Once he gets to know you, he is sweet and sometimes even playful, but will need a little time before he'll show off this side of him.

He cannot be rehomed to some areas around Bath, to prevent him straying to his previous home.

Homes with dogs or very small children are also not suitable.

Poppet

Poppet is a 14 year old Long Hair and she is always happy to make new friends.

She loves human company.

Poppet is suffering with a loss of hearing so should be rehomed away from any busy roads.

Despite her being a mature cat, Poppet still has a playful side and likes to bat a toy about when in the right mood.

She cannot live with dogs or older children.
