The Mayhew Animal Home was established in 1886 as a “Home for Starving and Deserted Cats” and was founded for the benefit of “the lost and starving dogs and cats of London so that they should have sanctuary from the cold inhumanity they are being dealt outside”.

The Mayhew is now one the busiest animal sanctuaries in London, rescuing thousands of companion animals from cruelty and neglect every year. The charity provides shelter and care for dogs, cats, rabbits and guinea pigs.

Dogs for the Disabled, a registered charity founded in 1986, trains dogs to help disabled people live life more independently. The dogs are trained in practical tasks such as opening and closing doors, helping a person undress, and even taking the laundry out of the washing machine.

“Since 1986 we have trained over 300 dogs to help disabled people live life more independently. But there are many more people that could be helped by these amazing dogs.”

The ASPCA was founded in 1866 as the first humane organization in the Western Hemisphere. The Society was formed to alleviate the injustices animals faced then, and we continue to battle cruelty today. Whether it’s saving a pet who has been accidentally poisoned, fighting to pass humane laws, rescuing animals from abuse or sharing resources with shelters across the country, we work toward the day in which no animal will live in pain or fear. Come and join us in the fight to end animal cruelty.
