Second Chance Animal Rescue, registered charity no. 1002511, is based in Southampton. We are a small rescue that deals with dogs, cats, small animals, and some wildlife. We have a dedicated team of volunteers that enable us to help as many animals as we possibly can. For over 40 years we have been helping animals find new homes that they can be happy in, but as always, there are more animals that need help than there are homes. Some of the many things we do here are: - to hand-raise orphaned animals, and in the case of wildlife, release them back into the wild when they are old enough; vaccinate and microchip all animals for rehoming, and treat any illness or injury of the animals in our care. On this website, you can find out more about which animals are in desperate need of loving homes.

If you are interested in one of our animals, please contact us first as viewing is by appointment. The best time to call is between 10am & 2pm, Monday to Friday- call us on 023 8055 9552. You can email us contact@secondchanceanimalrescue.co.uk

We also work closely with Second Chance Animal Rescue Portsmouth cats. If you want to rehome a cat in that area, please contact Janeen or Simon on 07787410888

Our Patrons are TV presenter Fred Dinenage MBE and Lady Leigh.
