RSPCA Derby is an independent, self-funded charity helping abused, neglected and abandoned animals from across Derbyshire and beyond. We rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome hundreds of dogs, cats, rabbits and small furries each year, with running costs of over £12,000 per WEEK.

Story

We know it’s not been very long since we last shared an appeal, but we need your help again so Fergal can have a pain-free future.

Watch his appeal video here:

From the moment he arrived with us, we could tell something wasn’t right. He was constantly squinting, his eye sore and weepy. A vet check confirmed why—he has Entropion, a painful condition where his eyelids roll inwards, making his eyelashes rub against his eyeball 😿

Imagine having grit in your eye all day, every day—that’s what Fergal has been living with.

Antibiotics helped clear up an infection in his eye, but they couldn’t fix the underlying problem. Now, Fergal urgently needs surgery to correct his eyelids and give him the pain-free life he deserves.

The surgery and post-op medication will cost around £500, but it’s essential for Fergal’s welfare. As an independent charity, we don’t receive funding from the national RSPCA, which means we rely entirely on kind-hearted animal lovers like you 💙

We know times are tough, but if you can spare anything—even just a pound—it would mean the world to him (and to us!). Every donation, every share, every bit of support makes a huge difference. If we manage to raise more than our target, we will use the extra money to help other animals in need.

From Fergal, and all of us at RSPCA Derby—thank you. We couldn’t do this without you.
