How is this not completely obvious? It's hardly going to be someone wanting OP's phone number to sell on. :D

This guy gets it.

The problem with the RSPCA is that they're a charity but people think of them in the same terms of an emergency service. In the sense that they expect them to be able to do something about everything reported to them. The reality is they are funded by people's donation and have limited resources.

Are they a perfect organisation? No. But they do a tremendous amount of good for animals. If they didn't exist no one else would be fulfilling the role that they offer. Something that very few people realise.

In answer to the OP. Call the number and see what they want. They won't solicit you with calls and if they do you can ask to be removed from their data. They are legally required to do so if asked.

no the problem is thatt hey have moved from providing help and care to pursuing prosecutions and putting down animals./

theres been many of thier workers/volunteers quit and be outspoken about this practice for some years now.


old person a little senile with a dozen cats, used to be they'd rehouse some and work with the person to look after what they can mange/educate.

now they confiscate and put down the cats and take the old lady to court for animal cruelty.
 
In the past two years, convictions secured by the charity have increased from 2,579 to 3,114. Last year, spinster Georgina Langley, 67, of West Hougham, Kent, was raided at her home by the RSPCA and had five of her 13 cats put down.

The charity prosecuted her for neglect, but Mr Smith, 62, came to her aid. After sending two of the cats’ bodies to the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) for an independent post-mortem, he said: ‘There appears to be no good reason why the RSPCA allowed these animals to be put to sleep.

‘The RVC post-mortems concluded the cats were healthy, with no signs of incorrect feeding or major problems with fleas or other illnesses.

‘They were very heavy-handed with an elderly lady and kept her standing out in her garden in the rain for hours while they searched her house.

Following a three-day trial in May 2012, the RSPCA dropped 11 of the 13 charges against Miss Langley.

on the spot euthanising of pets with a bolt gun in the back of a van/the persons back garden isnt what they where meant to be doing.

theyve gone from a caring organisation to just another charity business

I'm back from a few days away and thought I'd give you an update:

2 more calling cards were left after my last post, so I did call the RSPCA number in the end. It was their Inspectors & Enforcement department, and apparently someone saw a cat vomiting outside my house. The operator I spoke to asked if it was mine? I said no, never had a pet in the 10+ years that I've lived here. She (the operator) said thanks for calling anyway, and that it was probably either somebody else's cat that was in my garden or the whistle-blower got the wrong address. I have fairly good neighbours, so I would be mortified if it was one of them. I think they all know that I'm pet-less (no cat flap either) so I reckon it was a postie / deliveries driver or someone else relatively unknown to me.

Sounds reasonable in the event of a significant problem with cats.
