Mayhew is more than an animal rescue centre. We are working to improve animal welfare in the community and to support the people who live in it. Our team work with people in crisis or in need of support and protect the vital bond they share with their animal.
At Mayhew, we rescue and rehome hundreds of animals every year. We help dogs, puppies, cats and kittens that are looking for their second chance. Every animal receives a full behavioural and health assessment so that we can find them their ideal family.
Meet our dogs and cats looking for a home.
If you need help rehoming your animal, please contact our Reception team on 020 8962 8000. Our office hours are 9-5pm, Monday – Saturday.
We provide shelter and care for the pets of people in crisis for short periods of time.
