At LSPCA.ie, you can keep up to date on all that we’re doing at the Laois SPCA, see our upcoming events, find out how you can help us and see the animals we have in our care waiting to be rehomed.
If you can, we would be very grateful if you could donate to the Laois SPCA on our Donations page. Your donations go directly to helping the animals in our care.
Don’t forget to visit the Laois SPCA charity shop in Hynd’s Square, Portlaoise! All proceeds go directly to helping the animals in our care.
The Laois SPCA have so far this year subsidised the neutering of nearly 500 owned cats and issued over 70 half-cost neutering vouchers to dog owners. This has only been possible because of the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine Animal Welfare Grant for which we are extremely thankful.(new)
We are currently looking for both cat and dog foster carers. All vet’s bills, food and litter are covered by us. All we need is your time and compassion. Every day we have several calls from people finding kittens, or people finding litters in their garden and asking us to pick them up. We usually have a lot of cats and kittnes in our care, with only a handful of foster carers.

This is the handsome Moose. He’s a Shepherd x Rottweiler and is approx 2 years old. Moose gets on well with other dogs, but needs a home as an only dog, as he tends to play rough possibly due to not being socialised as a puppy. Apart from that he’s a lovely dog, loves his […]Read more →

Meet the gorgeous little Lucy. She’s 3 months old and one of Peggys’ puppies. Lucy is used to other dogs and is doing well with toilet training.

In Memory of Nell
6th Jun 2023The gorgeous Nell sadly crossed over the Rainbow Bridge on Friday. Nell, you may remember came into our care in December 2021, in a shocking state. She was found straying, her ears were so badly matted they were dragging the ground, her little body was covered in mange, she had mammary tumours, her eyes were […]HELP IS URGENTLY NEEDED with real animal rescue
9th Apr 2021If we were to ask for help with cuddling puppies and kittens in our shelter (which we haven’t got), we would be inundated with replies — but what we do need is help with the unglamorous side of rescue. As well as rehoming abandoned animals, our main aim is to reduce the number of unwanted […]Cat neutering scheme
31st Jan 2021For the month of February, we are running a subsidised cat neutering scheme. We were overrun with kittens last year and this is primarily due to people taking on small kittens and losing interest as they get older and neglecting to neuter them. Kittens can be neutered from 4 months onwards, as advised by the […]
Love at first sight — An update on Chester
14th Sep 2020Over 5 years ago, this lovely dog Chester came into our care in the most appalling state. He came from the Myshall puppy farm, so you know the condition he was in, without us going into details.

The only chance of […]Thank you Petmania
