5 pets at Hampshire RSPCA who are looking for new homes

Whether you want to adopt a dog, cat, rabbit or guinea pig, there is plenty of choice. A few animals from The Stubbington Ark are listed below, but more can be found on the centre's website. To help the RSPCA Solent branch carry on its work, you can donate to its website here. Billie Billie (Image: RSPCA) If you want to adopt Billie you can view his profile here. Billie is a male Staffordshire Bull Terrier crossbreed, who is between six and 12 months old and is tan in colour. He is described as a "big bundle of fun with a huge personality" who loves people and will greet them with a waggy tail. Billie enjoys playing with toys, especially a good game of tug, and loves his treats, which helps with training. He is said to be a strong boy who will need ongoing training for walking on a lead. As a result, he will need experienced owners who can provide plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. He will need an enclosed garden with six-foot fences in his new home, and he could live with children of secondary school age. Siren Siren (Image: RSPCA) If you want to adopt Siren you can view her profile here. Siren is a female Staffordshire Bull Terrier who is eight years old and black in colour. She is "full of fun and always on the go" and enjoys playing with toys, especially squeaky ones. Siren is a very clever girl and enjoys training, particularly if food is involved. She does not like other dogs and cannot be socialised with them, so she is fully muzzle-trained as a result. This will need to be worn in any situation where she may be in contact with an off-leash dog. Siren cannot live with other animals, and would be best suited to an adult-only home. Bunty Bunty (Image: RSPCA) If you want to adopt Bunty you can view her profile here. Bunty is a female domestic guinea pig who is four years old and is a tricoloured variety. She was quite timid when first arriving in the care of the RSPCA, but has grown in confidence over time. Bunty is generally okay with being handled and quite likes a stroke. She is looking to be rehomed with either a group of females or one male. The RSPCA adds: "She will require an enclosure of a minimum of 6ft x 2ft, either housed indoors (such as a C&C pen) or outdoors (a large shed set up)." Recommended reading: Tizzy and Shylo Tizzy and Shylo (Image: RSPCA) If you want to adopt Tizzy and Shylo you can view their profile here. Tizzy and Shylo are sisters who are both around one year old and are domestic long-haired breeds. They were both a bit nervous when first arriving at the Stubbington Ark and were found to be noise sensitive. Therefore, the RSPCA recommends starting them from their own unused room to initially settle in before exploring the rest of the property, and eventually a garden. Tizzy and Shylo need to be the only pets in the home and can live with older aged secondary school children who will be quiet around them while they settle.
