These are 12 beautiful pets - including guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits and cats - currently up for adoption in Northampton.
1. Ollie
Ollie is 15 years old and is a very affectionate and happy cat. She loves her foster mum and spending time relaxing around the home. The RSPCA would like to find a stress-free home for Ollie where she will be spoiled. She will also be fine to live with sensible older children. Photo: RSPCA
2. Gilbert and Albert
Gilbert Albert are two male guinea pigs, aged around a year old. They came into the RSPCA’s care after they were given away on a selling page. They are both confident and happy, and enjoy their daily veg. Albert and Gilbert will need to have suitable accommodation indoors. Photo: RSPCA
3. Huey, Dewey and Louie
Gerbil brothers Huey, Dewey and Louie are estimated to be around a year old. The trio will need a large, deep gerbilarium - such as a repurposed 120ltr fish tank - in order to be able to burrow. Photo: RSPCA
4. Marble and Buttons
Guinea Pig girls Marble & Buttons are between one and two years old. They came into the RSPCA’s care after they were given away on a selling page. They are a little shy and unaccustomed to handling, but are growing in confidence in their foster home. Marble and Buttons will need to have suitable accommodation indoors. Photo: RSPCA
