It was completed before the pandemic
An animal centre is thriving after its recent redevelopment has made it both a rescue centre and an education hub for the community. The RSPCA Radcliffe Animal Centre completed its new reception and education building shortly before the pandemic hit, but say that now things have settled down they can really make use of their facilities with the community as a rehoming and education centre.
"We still get people coming in all the time, but we haven't got any room to take any more in." Many animals at the centre are up for adoption or awaiting their new homes with loving families, but a large proportion were still receiving medical treatment and recovering before they are ready to be adopted.
The centre will only rehome rabbits as a pair due to them being such "sociable animals." Lyn explained: "They are not made to be on their own, they can become depressed and shut down." Neil McEwen has worked at the centre part time for more than two years, after he spent a lot of time volunteering at the site. Around 12 years ago he adopted Max, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, from the site and described it as being one of the best decisions he made.
"He never growled or bit, he just wanted to play. The only concern we had was how these injuries could affect him later in life, but dogs are going to get arthritis in their life anyway."
