With little money I have, I've been donating about £30 per month for these poor animals.Reading the reviews,I wish I hadn't. Is this RSPCA really legit?

THE RSPCA SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES!! 🚨 THIS IS HOW SOME DOGS ARE LEFT TO SUFFER for Months!🚨WITH NO HELP FROM THE USELESS RSPCA!!!! 3 Shepherd Dogs Abandoned, Ignored, and Forgotten— But Not Anymore! Today following a desperate call from a worried neighbour my dog rescue went to rescue three shepherd dogs who have endured unimaginable neglect since June. W had a brief understanding of what was to come, but no one could prepare them us what we walked into, nothing short of a living hell!! Left alone, with no shelter, no warmth, no love, no safety, only sharp objects, rubbish, wires and pieces of metal in a yard flooded with water up to their knees. These dogs were left to battle the storms, rain, and freezing cold, without help, only having scraps of food from neighbouring homes who fed these animals! This was their reality for months! 6 months!! 26 weeks!! Half a year!! 6 months ago their ‘owner’ decided to close that front door for the very last time and never return back!! Leaving two females and a male dog to just fend for themselves 💔😭💔 Neighbours called the authorities, the police, and yet nothing was done. The RSPCA visited, left a note saying, "Feed the dogs, neighbours are complaining"—and walked away. How is this possible in the UK? Is this what we should expect from a charity that claims to protect animals? Avoidance? Neglect? The silence is deafening, but the helpless barks and cries from three innocent, scared, cold and starving dogs is very very loud! Yet no one who could help heard them! RSPCA ATTENDED THAT PROPERTY AND WALKED AWAY! NOT ONCE, NOT TWICE, MULTIPLE TIMES!!

Absolutely useless. My sister reported a woman who was arrested and has been away for days. The woman's flat had animal waste everywhere and other rubbish. She has loads of dogs, a snake and a cat. She did have a rabbit that starved to death and RSPCA has ignored it

Rescued a wild animal. Took all my details to be told afterwards that they had no intention of contacting me to advise how the animal was. Said I could call them the next day. Called the next day to be told that information was incorrect and they “don’t have the resources” to let me know if it’s ok. What resourses? Took her longer to tell me that my “feedback” (it wasn’t feedback) would be passed on to the poor person who told me to call. Had to ask for the poor service (actually it was NO service) feedback to be given to a manager. Why do you need my details? What for if you aren’t going to keep me informed? Next animal I take there (hopefully I won’t have to) I will be leaving with no details provided and walking out. This is one of the reasons I do not donate to this place. What a sham.

I actually gave a nort rating on their survey at the end of my phone call I made to them which ended in the rude uncaring male call handler hanging up on me! ,only left a one rating on here to be able to leave a review.The operative they had answering the so call emergency and neglect line should be sacked.I tried to explain the animal welfare issue and he spoke over me throughout the conversation,could tell he just wanted to get off the phone,he kept saying "you don't,t know the animal is suffering " even though I tried to explain my concerns.He said they can't do anything and told me to ring the police, obviously just passing the book.I knew the police wouldn,t do anything either and I said they would state it's an R.S.P.C.A issue.The male representative just was not interested,I was not abusive but did inform him I found his attitude very uncaring and that I could tell he just wanted to get off the phone.He hung on me- Proving my point to be true.I sent donations to the R.S.P.C.A over the years and recently but this person really left me with a bad impression of the R.S.P.C.A. I'm not surprised Chris packham resigned from being associated with them.That rude,bad attitude,uncaring member of staff I spoke to today has shown me they simply do not care for animals.I hope that phone call was recorded,it will show how I was treated.

rspca prioritises image and expedience over animals, it endorses murder of animals including painful gas chamber suffocation of pigs. This is not the animal welfare society we need.

Called to report a malnourished, neglected horse chained up and the INCREDIBLY RUDE man that answered the phone was so UNHELPFUL and disgustingly blasé. For a rescue charity, they care frighteningly little for animals. Have cancelled my donation that has been a direct debit for years. Funnily enough, this website won't even let me post pictures of the animals to strengthen my claim. Disgusting.

Called RSPCA out for an unwell dog chained to a washing line in a yard, no food, no water, no shelter. Was told that they didn’t have the resources to send someone out but told me to jump the fence and give it water. When asked what happens when the owners see the water and just take it away. Their response was to tell me that I can legally jump the fence until the owner tells me to leave, as only then am I trespassing. Doesn’t help the dog now does it.

So signed up for free cat grass, but you didn't advertise the fact that the FREE cat grass came at a donation to the RSPCA via a cold calling person. Who then hung up because i wouldn't donate to RSPCA when i already foster animals. Bad under handed practices by a terrible company

I called about help with vets that did not know what is wrong with my dog and she is dyeing. I wanted them to know that the vets are all out for the money and if they did not find out what is wrong with your dog they disregard you. They transferred my to their vet and they were going to send me many different things to check for quality of life. NO EMAIL!!

One of your so colleagues going back year's ago came to our door because a stupid cow that lived next-door made a complaint saying we did Animal Cruelty to one of our Cat's which we have never ever been cruel to our animals ever, your member of staff stood at our front door Yapping and thanks to him our Cat escaped and when he was asked could he find our Cat he replied "No" its was his dame fault in 1st place standing at the front door instead of coming inside and shutting the door?? so thanks to him we never seen our Cat again all thanks to him, he should get the Sack Immediately but as it is this was year's ago he might not be working at the R.S.P.C.A no more - so you tell All Your Colleagues to ask can they come inside from now on

RSPCA aims to "make sure that all animals have a good life, by rescuing and caring for those in need. The Society's Mission Statement: "The RSPCA as a charity will, by all lawful means, prevent cruelty, promote kindness to and alleviate suffering of animals" I heard a dog was barking and whining in distress from around 6pm on 6 Nov. It went on all night and till early morning. The dog was chained up in the yard with no shelter, food and water. Called RSPCA. First, they asked me to report to council if it's for the noise complaint. Nope, it's animal welfare issue. Response was that staff will check out the issue. Staff finally came around 6pm on 7 Nov. The dog was chained up for 24 hours on a hot day (30 degrees). There were people inside the house, and at some point, a man came out and yelled at the dog to "shut up." That household who holds the dog has a history of mistreating another dog, and that dog died some months ago. Did they think to tie up the barking dog in their yard would give them some sort of protection? The dog was not exercised, had no access to water and food, neglected, tethered, etc. Why do we have Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1979 (NSW), if it does not mean anything? The dog has a very large scar on its head and injuries to its face. Was he used in dogfighting? My friend who has rescued many dogs, and he would love this dog unconditionally and give it a loving home. I guarantee. When I asked RSPCA which shelter the dog is being kept or when it's available for adoption, they refused to provide any information and claimed it's for privacy. Are they planning to return the dog to the owner who is cruel? If so, that dog would be better dead. There's no life but suffering. I'm very disappointed with this organisation. I will change my will and give my money to other animal welfare organisation that actually cares for animals and have the capacity and heart. All animals in NSW are protected by the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1979 (NSW). This act applies at all times to and deals with the cruel and unconscionable treatment of all animals. Cruelty to animals (1) A person shall not commit an act of cruelty upon an animal. (2) A person in charge of an animal shall not authorise the commission of an act of cruelty upon the animal. (3) A person in charge of an animal shall not fail at any time— (a) to exercise reasonable care, control or supervision of an animal to prevent the commission of an act of cruelty upon the animal, 8 Animals to be provided with food, drink or shelter (1) A person in charge of an animal shall not fail to provide the animal with food, drink or shelter, or any of them, which, in each case, is proper and sufficient and which it is reasonably practicable in the circumstances for the person to provide. 9 Confined animals to be exercised (1) A person in charge of an animal which is confined shall not fail to provide the animal with adequate exercise. (2) In any proceedings for an offence against subsection (1), evidence that an animal referred to in that subsection was not released from confinement during a period of 24 hours is evidence that the person accused of the offence has failed to provide the animal with adequate exercise during that period. 10 Tethering of animals (1) A person shall not— (a) tether an animal, or (b) where the person is a person in charge of an animal—authorise the tethering of the animal, for an unreasonable length of time or by means of an unreasonably heavy, or unreasonably short, tether.

RSPCA is rubbish. So many complaints and they still expect to get donations. After all of these truly cruelty cases that they have ignored, eg. Labradoodles being put in freezer and did not go there once. I have now changed my will to a company that loves animals.

I'm from California, and when we would report that a skunk or a raccoon -- the worst urban pests we have -- are hurt or trapped, the ASPCA would act immediately, coming to the scene to help rescue it and possibly take it for treatment. The RSPCA has such a disgusting, apathetic tone towards a poor fox that was trapped in what the British call a "Coal Hole." It had been trapped for over 24 hours, and clearly had had no food, water, or shelter that whole time; in addition, it's a wile animal, and can thus be dangerous for a laymen ignorant of wildlife to help properly. The RSPCA did not give two damns about. They seem to only care about domesticated dogs and cats, and whether people are mistreating them. they don't deserve their title, and should be ashamed that America, the land of guns and hatred, bears more responsibility to its animals, wild or domesticated, pest or not. I'll tell you what, though; if we have to deal with something similar in the future and my husband, myself, or worst of all, my six year old daughter, is injured, I'm getting a lawyer.
