Several pets in Hampshire are looking for their forever homes, including at the RSPCA Solent branch in The Stubbington Ark.
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 their website here.
Twiglet

Gender - Male
Age - Six to 12 months old
Breed - French Bulldog
Colour - Black
If you want to adopt Twiglet you can view their full profile here.
Twiglet has not had the best start to life and has missed out on early training, socialisation and exposure to the world.
He can be wary of objects and unknown people so needs the opportunity to process them in his own time.
Twiglet will need a private garden and someone at home for the majority of the day.
He does like human company and may need to adapt gradually when it comes to leaving him at home alone.
It is felt he would do best in an adult-only home as the only pet.
Lola

Gender - Female
Age - Unknown
Breed - Staffordshire Bull Terrier crossbreed
Colour - Grey and Tan
If you want to adopt Lola you can view their full profile here.
Lola is described as a dog with a lot of energy and will need to learn a few skills to help her navigate the world.
She loves going for long walks, playing fetch with a ball and figuring out her new enrichment toys.
Lola would benefit from an owner experienced with large bully breeds although this is not essential.
She will need a good-sized secure garden to explore and a comfy bed in a quiet part of the house to sleep in.
Sheldon

Gender - Male
Age - Two years old
Breed - Rottweiler
Colour - Black and Tan
If you want to adopt Sheldon you can view their full profile here.
Sheldon had not been exposed to much of the outside world before coming into the care of the RSPCA so can be worried by strangers and some dogs.
His foster carer reports that he is fully toilet trained, sleeps downstairs in a crate and can be left for up to two hours once he is settled.
The RSPCA adds: "Sheldon’s new family will have to be experienced with large breeds as Sheldon plays quite rough and can be boisterous at times."
He would benefit from a large private garden which he can easily access throughout the day.

Mary-Kate and Ashley
Two rabbits (Image: RSPCA)
Gender - Female
Age - Unknown
Breed - Domestic
Colour - Brown and Black
If you want to adopt Mary-Kate and Ashley you can view their full profile here.
Mary-Kate and Ashley are sisters who are looking to find a loving new home together.
They were quite nervous when they first came to the centre but have grown in confidence massively thanks to their love for food.
The pair find handling a little stressful, especially Mary-Kate, so this is something that would require a patient approach.
The RSPCA adds: "They love their food and hay and can often be found digging into their hay all throughout the day."
