The charity helps to rescue and re-home cats and small animals in the area. It is a separately registered branch of the RSPCA and relies on the generous support of the public and businesses.
Co-chair of the RSPCA branch, Zoe Cookson, told MK Citizen: “We’re incredibly grateful for any help raising awareness. Right now, we’re facing an overwhelming number of abandoned and unwanted cats, especially mums and their kittens. Our branch, like so many animal charities across the UK, is absolutely at capacity. Every space we have is full, and we’re constantly being asked to take in more.
“We urge anyone thinking of getting a pet to consider adoption. Every cat we care for has their own story and is just waiting for a second chance in a loving home.
“Neutering is also vital. It’s the only way we can start to reduce the endless cycle of unwanted litters. If more people neutered their pets, we wouldn’t see so many kittens being abandoned every year.
“Adopting, fostering, donating, and even just sharing our posts, can make a huge difference. These cats didn’t ask to be in this situation, but together, we can change their future.”
Adoption applications can be made through the RSPCA Milton Keynes & North Bucks Branch website.

5. Diamond and Sapphire (kittens)
These two shy gems had a tough start after being born outside. Because of this, they are still learning to trust people. But with patience, kindness and a few tasty treats, their loving sides begin to shine. The bonded siblings should be rehomed together, as they give each other confidence and comfort. An adult-only household would be best for them to blossom. Photo: RSPCA Milton Keynes & N. Bucks Branch/Facebook Photo: RSPCA Milton Keynes & N. Bucks Branch/Facebook
