Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…
Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

In 1995 we formally became The Sussex Pet Rescue Charitable Trust and then, after much form filling question answering, and much attention to detail, we finally achieved our registration as an approved National Charity, thus bringing us into line with the RSPCA and the Dogs Trust in terms of our ability to raise funds for our work. Little did I think, fifty years ago when I joined a very small band of local animal welfare workers, that our group would progress to become a registered charity.
At first, the group did not even have a name, and, since we rescued and re-homed any animal needing our help, it was difficult for us to find an appropriate title. It was Bunny Heaseman who first hit upon the name Pet Rescue, a name which has since become so well known within the Sussex area and beyond for the care of animals in distress. I met Kate Tapper (one of my Co-Directors) over forty years ago when we were both walking our dogs in the Copse at the top of Woodland Drive, Hove. One day she commented on the number of different dogs I appeared to own. Oh yes, I replied, I am a member of a group called Pet Rescue. I don't suppose you ever have any free time for us, do you? Now Kate often wonders how different life would have been for her and her family if her answer to my question had not been so enthusiastic, or, indeed, if she had chosen to walk her dogs on the Downs rather than the Copse!
