Pets are at the heart of everything Blue Cross do. Each year, thousands of cats, dogs, small pets and horses turn to their animal hospitals, clinics and rehoming services for treatment and to find them the happy homes they deserve.

They have nearly 40 charity shops selling a mixture of greeting cards and donated clothes, books, toys, household goods and soft furnishings. All the money raised from sales in their shops goes towards helping sick, injured and homeless pets.
