Rehoming Animal Telephone Service (RATS) was founded in 1984 by a group of animal lovers in Bedford who initially matched adopters and owners by telephone. Over time, the charity expanded to foster dogs, cats and small mammals in volunteers’ homes before securing permanent, vetted placements, later purchasing its own kennels near Buntingford, Hertfordshire. Cats and small mammals continue to be fostered locally, while dogs now reside at the kennels. Operating a strict policy of never euthanising a healthy animal due to lack of a home, RATS remains reliant on donations and fundraising to continue its work.
