From the confident to those that need a caring and patient home environment, these rescue animals are in search of their forever home.
Dogs, cats and even ferrets have been brought into the RSPCA Ipswich and East Suffolk team, which is now looking for forever homes for its furry residents.
Dogs
Letti
Letti was placed into the care of the RSPCA after a fight broke out between her and two other dogs in her previous home.
She suffered multiple puncture wounds and had to have stitches to the right side of her face and neck, but thankfully she has fully healed now.
Described by staff at the shelter as a "sweet girl", Letti enjoys her food, toys and company. However, she finds the kennel environment quite stressful and has started showing some undesirable behaviours such as mounting and mouthing the lead, which are being carefully managed.
Letti has shown worried behaviours around men which will also require confidence building to be continued in the home.

Rico
Rico has found himself back in the care of the RSPCA due to his behaviour needs.
He is looking for a female, adult-only home without another dog. A home with a cat might be suitable for him, providing that his adopters are willing to follow introduction guidelines provided by the centre, to ensure that both Rico's and the cat's welfare is not compromised.
Rico enjoys spending time with his owner but has also shown to be independent and like his own space at times.
Being a French bulldog, Rico does currently have a few minor breed-related health conditions.
Rico has displayed some undesirable behaviours in the home environment, which will need to be managed by the adopter with the use of appropriate reward-based training.

Cody would best suit a quiet, low-populated area where there are fewer passing vehicles, people and dogs.
