Hampshire: Southampton rehoming centre

We opened in 1988 after the site was very kindly bequeathed to us. The centre has facilities for dogs and cats, plus puppy and kitten facilities.

If you are looking for a pet please read about the rehoming process and view our pets looking for new homes.

Directions

Please note the postcode SO30 2HL (as below) may not take you all the way to our rehoming centre as we share a postcode with another property (Wessex Vale Crematorium).  

• Coming from the M27/Hedge End: your satnav may advise you to turn left onto Bubb Lane when you are about a minute from your destination. Please ignore this and continue straight on the main road (also Bubb Lane); we’re about half a mile further along on the left.
• Coming from West End: follow the road past Wessex Vale and turn left at the t-junction; we’re about half a mile further along on the left.
• Coming from Fair Oak/Botley: you will see our rehoming centre on your right about a third of a mile along Bubb Lane, arriving with us about a minute ahead of your satnav’s estimated time of arrival.

Home Direct Scheme

Our Home Direct Scheme is for dogs, cats, rabbits and other small pets whose owners can sadly no longer keep them but don’t need to find them a new home straight away. Pets stay in their existing home until a new owner is found for them. All pets go through our careful assessment and matching process.

Short-term volunteer foster caring

Become a volunteer short term foster carer for pets at Blue Cross and help improve the welfare of the animals in our care. As a volunteer foster carer you will look after needy animals in your own home while they are recuperating from operations or illness, or young kittens or puppies until they are able to find a permanent new home. If you live within 45 minutes of the centre and are interested in this rewarding volunteer role, please email Victoria Murray.
