We are a truly local charity providing essential animal welfare services across Suffolk
The RSPCA Suffolk Central branch exists to help animals across Suffolk. Our Animal Centre in Martlesham can care for over 100 animals in need at any one time. Through our welfare clinics and financial assistance scheme we support over 2,000 people and pets annually by providing heavily subsidised veterinary treatment.
Everything we do is funded by support from our local community via our charity shops, fundraising efforts, donations and gifts in Wills.
Adoption & rehoming
Our Animal Centre based in Martlesham has up to 100 animals in our care at any time. Could you offer a forever home to an animal in need? Take a look at our current residents below.
Pet of the Week
Mia
Mia came to the centre after showing signs of stress in her previous home.
Since arriving she has completely charmed everyone she meets with her sweet character. Mia quickly made plenty of human friends and was later moved into a local foster home where she has settled and found a new lease of life.
Don’t let Mia’s age fool you, she is still playful, chatty, and full of affection. When her family is home, she wastes no time jumping onto a lap for cuddles and settling in for the evening and if she feels she’s being ignored, she’ll gently tap you for attention!
During a routine veterinary check-up, Mia was diagnosed with diabetes. Thankfully, her condition is well managed with daily insulin injections. Mia is an absolute super star when having her injection and as long as it is accompanied with food, she doesn’t even know it has happened!
Mia’s diabetes certainly doesn’t define her, you wouldn’t even know she has it by looking at her. She is a happy, loving cat who deserves a forever home where she can continue enjoying life to the fullest.
Do you have the right home for our sweet Mia to spend her retirement years?
You made a difference in 2025
There are many ways YOU can help raise the vital funds that we need to deliver our vital services. RSPCA Suffolk Central receives no funding from the government, all the running costs of the branch comes from generous donations, fundraising and legacies from the public and local community. But together this is what we achieved last year..

Success Story
Happy Haggis
Haggis came into our care after being removed from an overcrowded home, with cat flu and an old leg injury that needed attention. After having his poorly leg amputated he was adopted in no time!
His new family gave us this update "Haggis is doing so well! He had his first vet visit yesterday and they were very happy with him and thought he was adorable and so well behaved. He's loving all the window sills to snooze on... as expected he's still just as playful and especially likes the wand toy and anything that jingles. We're so happy we found Haggis, thank you so much."
Success Story
Plum & George
Plum & George were adopted in March 2025 after being with us for nearly two years. Their new family were really grateful for the help and support given by the small animal team while going through the application process and were impressed by how passionate we are about finding the most suitable homes for our animals.
Their new family say "Plum and George have been a great additional to our family and brought us so much joy already. George is a laid back chap who enjoys his food and bed, but don't let that fool you - he also loves an escape attempt! Plum, who we have appropriately nicknamed "Chaos" has energy to burn! She's the tiniest girl, with the biggest personality and loves to jump around and play with her toys, but when she sleeps a herd of elephants couldn't wake this sleeping beauty! We're so grateful for everything the RSPCA did for our babies, we genuinely couldn't imagine our lives without them."
Success Story
Dobby & Nala
Dobby was with us for a while before finding his perfect bunny wife, Nala, and although the bonding process took a few months we were happy to play a key role in two bunnies finally having the companionship they deserve.
Dobby's new owner was thrilled with how the team went above and beyond - not only in Dobby & Nala's care, but in providing daily updates and pictures. Both bunnies were excited to be home and settled in well - and they lived hop-pily ever after!
