Adopting through a rehoming centre can take a little extra time and patience, but the rewards are worth it.
Adopting an animal is a big decision, have you thought about what is involved? Take a look at our care guides to learn how to prepare for, and look after your new animal, read our adoption process and submit your application online.
Once you have registered with us, please keep checking our website for new arrivals.
If you spot an animal you think might be a match, there is no need to submit another application form, just email us at info@raystede.org to highlight your interest.
Please note: We offer an on-site bonding service for single small animals who need to be paired up with a companion. Our Small Animals Team smallanimals@raystede.org will be happy to discuss this process with you should you have any questions.
Mags arrived at Raystede in a state of neglect, suffering with chronic laminitis (inflammation and damage to the tissue of his hooves) severely impacting his ability to move. Mags spent around four weeks not being able to leave the stable, with Styrofoam pads taped to all four feet to increase comfort.
Five months later, thanks to your kind donations and the expert care our Equine Team, Mags is the picture of health, he is worm and lice free, and most importantly he isn’t in pain.
We couldn't help animals like Mags without your incredible support.
