We have witnessed a significant surge in animals in need arriving through our doors, with a 25% increase in 2023, latest figures show.<\/h2>\n

Disturbingly, almost three-quarters of these animals required immediate veterinary treatment, in many cases due to intentional abuse but increasingly due to unintentional harm as owners can no longer afford veterinary treatment.<\/p>\n

We are warning that as Scotland continues to face an animal welfare crisis, more support than ever is needed in communities across the country. And 43% of people who contacted us in 2023 to discuss having to give up their animal, gave financial circumstances as a reason. <\/p>\n

In addition to the surge in animal arrivals, we have also experienced a concerning 10% rise in calls to our free helpline, with more than a quarter of a million calls in 2023 (277,911)<\/p>\n

We have now released these new figures in a new report<\/a> highlighting its work in 2023 to rescue and rehabilitate thousands of pets, wild animals and farmed animals, at a time when the charity, like many organisations across the country, has seen the cost of delivering its services spiral as rising energy bills, food and veterinary costs all increase. <\/p>\n

Of the 25% increase in arrivals to our animal rescue and rehoming centres across Scotland, with 6,944 animals taken into the charity\u2019s care, 4,404 of these required veterinary treatment. <\/p>\n

One well-loved six-year-old dog called Bentley arrived at our Aberdeen Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre after his owners couldn\u2019t afford to treat his skin problems and allergies. They had to make the heart-breaking decision to give up their beloved animal simply because of the cost of his medical care.  We have since successfully found a loving new home with another family for Bentley. <\/p>\n

In the same year, our pioneering Pet Aid service worked with 56 food banks across Scotland (which as of June 2024 has now increased to 71), providing regular supplies of pet food essentials to help people struggling to make ends meet who would otherwise face the prospect of giving up their animal.  The service helped more than 400 people each month across the year. <\/p>\n

We are now piloting an innovative sister service to Pet Aid offering community veterinary support to help keep people and their pets together and reduce the need for animals to come into our care. <\/p>\n

The project, which is being piloted in the Glasgow area, sees a community veterinary nurse team visit owners and their pets at home to carry out basic healthcare assessments.  Animals in need of more complex veterinary treatment can then be referred to our Glasgow centre.<\/p>\n

Scottish SPCA Chief Executive Kirsteen Campbell said;  \u201cIt\u2019s clear from our latest annual figures that animals across Scotland have never needed us more.  <\/p>\n

\u201cIt is heart-breaking to see so many animals come to us because their owners simply can no longer cope or make ends meet.  The animal welfare crisis and cost of living crisis go hand in hand and it\u2019s also costing us more than ever as a charity to do what we do. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re determined to be here for animals in the ways they need us today and in the future. We\u2019ve introduced new services and changed the way we work in communities across Scotland so that we can help as many people and animals as possible to stay together. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut thousands more animals are still coming through our doors every year and we want to be there for all of them.  We can only do that with help and it costs us more to help the animals who need us than the money we are raising, so every penny counts.\u201d <\/p>\n

In 2023 we also rehomed 3,881 animals to loving new homes, fostered 459 animals, and treated 5,163 wild animals. The charity launched 310 special investigations including 113 investigations into low welfare puppy dealers. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
