No the RSPCA pay to bring private prosecutions, nothing to do with the CPS (though agree it should be), the RSPCA (a charity) on a whole are left to bring animal welfare perpetrators to justice.

i personally feel that the RSPCA can go whistle! they are money grabbers who arnt interested in anything that isn't in the media. so so so many times have we called for help from them to be fobbed off and told that the animal was fine, only for them to die days or weeks later. useless idiots!

LauraLucas.. Everthought they didn't be there because they physically can't deal with the amount of calls that come in? If the animal died after weeks of the rspca not attending, did u call someone else? Why did they not attend? And as I've said time and again regarding the press. Look at their statistics... If u can hand on heart say you've seen that many stories in the press then I'll accept the argument, if not then it's no argument at all....

Haven't read all 21 pages of posts so sorry if this has already been said but just to clarify it IS the CPS that prosecutes criminal cases, not RSPCA. RSPCA gather evidence and then pass the file to CPS who make the decision on whether or not to prosecute.
This comment is a prime example of where the public are so misinformed of how the RSPCA operate. This poster sounds absolutely confident of what they are saying yet they are completely wrong.

If those instances really happened (let's face it how many people have honestly seen SO MANY animals neglected, dead and dying without any intervention) then that poster has obviously not had enough concern to call other organisations or even a vet to try and save the animals in question. Shame.
