Passive Smoking and Our Pets

Passive smoking is when we breathe in smoke from other people’s cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. We are all aware of the risks of passive smoking in people, and especially children, but did you know that it is actually damaging our pets’ health as well?

Why we want you …

  • We are passionate about the RSPCA because our vision is to live in a world where all animals are respected and treated with compassion.

    Our volunteers are incredible and play an essential role in helping us carry out our important animal welfare work every single day.

    Our fosterers, in particular, play a vital role by providing a temporary home for animals that are in the care of the RSPCA, either during rehabilitation or whilst they are waiting for a suitable permanent home to be found.

    If you join us, you could be fostering an animal for just a few weeks, or it could be a longer-term placement for several months or more.
