No entry fee but donations welcome!

HAPPY St Patrick’s Day everyone, we are looking forward to taking part in the Newbridge Parade today (Tuesday) while hoping for good weather. We will have some dogs taking part but only those who are comfortable being in public.

KWWSPCA will also be running a series of fundraisers

A female cat can have up to three litters in one year, usually producing three to five kittens in each litter

Conor is a unique-looking boy owing to a damaged eye

Nina is a bit of a legend

The KWWSPCA shop in Newbridge, Noah’s Ark, has also recently had a relaunch for Spring

Little Ruby did not leave her side while all the time smothering her with kisses and hugs as Geraldine cried for help

Congrats to all the volunteers!

this year we have our very own KWWSPCA 2026 Doggy Calendars for sale at €10 ea

The organisation's Sally McCaffrey also said that more than 400 feral cats had been neutered, many of which were rehomed on farms or as domestic pets. 

She seems to be happy to meet other dogs, and she travels well in a car

We could not accommodate the full number of enterprises wishing to participate at the fair and have unfortunately had to disappoint several.

AT long last Reggie has found his forever home! He had spent the best part of 3 years in animal shelters even though he’s only five years old.

They are a high-energy breed who require a lot of mental stimulation and activity, but they are also a very loyal and friendly breed who make great family pets.

All dogs participating must be on leads, as per the park’s rule

The KWWSPCA depends so very much on the generosity of the public to carry out its work.

This is very much a fun dog show and is open to all dogs over six months of age no matter what shape or breed, with no fussy conditions to comply with

WE feature a dog this week called Sonny, who was a previous subject of this article last May, but unfortunately, still hasn’t been chosen for a home.

Why not stock up now for your winter reading while supporting the animals in our care.

Mondello Park has kindly invited the KWWSPCA to fundraise at their great family event this weekend

Cole received his name because he was so dirty that he looked like he had been living in a coal bunker

Stevie loves human interaction and is always welcoming to our shelter volunteers, who are aware of his special needs and who always talk to him when approaching or taking him for his walks.

The recently approved project has been appealed

Sounds like great fun!

Many of the charity's supporters are also using the Return Bottle/Can Scheme at the moment to raise funds for us.

I just have something in my eye.... sniff

A new KWWSPCA centre has been given the green light for development in Kildare

Stevie requires a rural home as urban noise, traffic, and proximity to a motorway or railway line will not suit him

If kittens are found in a feral situation and are young enough to be tamed, they will also be rehomed as domestic cats.

Sonny walks well on his lead, enjoys human company and is quite happy to lounge on a couch for a good part of the day

The work is not just walking and cuddling cute dogs, there’s also poop scooping, feeding and cleaning.

These are fun events and every type of dog is welcome, especially rescue dogs.

“Obviously, he’s somebody’s pet because he’s a very affectionate cat."

Tom came in a few weeks ago in such a terrible state that we cannot possibly publish a photo taken at the time. 

It is a delightful way to spend a couple of hours on Good Friday.

A very busy bunch

A tiny item that only costs €1

Both are heading into their senior years now and are more content to laze around rather than head off for long walks

"Ivan came into my life as a foster puppy from KWWSPCA, rescued from a grim situation that left him with a significant injury around his neck"

Could you help?

We remind you that most books sell for as little as €1 each and although they are mainly pre-owned, many of them are brand new.
