AN ANIMAL charity is appealing to find an urgent foster or forever home for a 14-year-old dog after her owners passed away.

The RSPCA Basingstoke and Andover Branch is looking for a home for Sadie, who is currently living in kennels after her owners died.

The 'sweet' dog lost her companion through illness and now needs a home urgently, either to be fostered or rehomed, from a resident in or around Basingstoke or Andover.

She also loves being cuddled, according to volunteers at the charity, and is 'very sweet'.

Anyone who can provide a home for Sadie, either on a temporary or permanent basis, is asked to contact RSPCA volunteer Mandy on 07904552634.

The branch is run by a committee of volunteers and relies on public donations and fundraising to support its animal welfare activities.

These include animal re-homing, provision of limited financial assistance and the promotion of responsible pet ownership through emergency neutering and microchipping campaigns.

If you are unable to commit to rehoming an animal on a permanent basis, then fostering could be ideal.

A spokesperson for RSPCA Basingstoke and Andover said: "Fostering can be a highly rewarding experience which also enables us to provide our animals with a temporary loving home whilst we find them their new owner. We need foster homes for all sorts of reasons and lengths of time."

For more information on providing Pepsi, or any other animals with the home they need, please contact the RSPCA Basingstoke and Andover Branch via its website at rspca.org.uk/local/basingstoke-and-andover-branch.
