Can you help abandoned and neglected animals?

Our rescue centre provides a safe haven for up to hundreds of animals at a time, but with rising costs over the past few years, we are struggling to keep going. We can't do it without your support.

By playing the Gables Dogs and Cats Home lottery for just £2 per week, you will be helping us to give every animal that comes through our rescue the love and care that they need. You will also be in with a chance of winning up to £10,000.

Meet our rescue animals

Queenie arrived at Gables with a skin condition so distressing that she scratched her neck raw. After intensive medical care, she made a full recovery and is now living with a wonderful new, loving family.

Cindy Lou was suffering from multiple medical issues when she came to Gables. After urgent medical care, including surgery to help her simply breathe at rest, she was rehomed with a lovely family and has recovered well.

Affectionately named, Lumpy Larry arrived with tightly matted fur and a large tumour on his face. After essential surgery to remove the tumour, he was able to make a full recovery and to be rehomed to a new, loving family.

Faye arrived at Gables needing extensive veterinary care. As specialists in caring for elderly animals, we secured the care she needed before finding her a loving home in which to enjoy her twilight years.

We took in four kittens who had been abandoned in the middle of the heatwave. Covered in fly eggs, struggling to breathe, they were given emergency fluids and were then hand-reared before being rehomed.

3-year-old cockapoo, Phoebe, came to us with a congenital heart defect and needed life-saving surgery. She is now recovering well at home with a loving new family.

Claire Sparkes, General Manager

I have adopted 2 cats from Gables over the years, and they have brought such joy to my life. I now play the lottery as a way of giving back to the charity and secure their future to help more cats.
