Rain Rescue

Who we are

Founded in 2002, Rain Rescue has saved the lives of thousands of the cats and dogs most at risk in and around Yorkshire by providing the space and support needed for them to recover, thrive and find a loving home.

What we do

From only having 3 cattery rooms and using boarding kennels for dogs in need, the charity has grown and adapted to help where it is needed most. Rain Rescue now has a cattery, kennels, exercise field, vet room and socialisation space, and is supported by a dedicated team of staff and volunteers.

We believe every cat and dog has the right to a happy life, free from fear and pain and we work tirelessly to ensure no dog or cat abandoned, mistreated or neglected in our local area.

How Animal Friends has helped

Animal Friends donated £18,350 to Rain Rescue, including £2,750 in 2022 to help towards their veterinary costs which had increased by 46% due to the high demand for animals needing help.
