article: They all look heart-breakingly gorgeous and the perfect pets – but this menagerie of cute animals are all unwanted and some have endured horrendous cruelty. But now, thanks to Amanda Holden, the RSPCA and, just possibly, you, many of these long-suffering animals could be given happy new homes. The Britain’s Got Talent judge is presenting a new series on ITV which will highlight the plight of the animals arriving at the RSPCA’s Newbrook Farm Animal Centre in Birmingham. Animal lover: Amanda Holden will host the new show on ITV highlighting plight of RSPCA centre in Birmingham . On Give A Pet A Home, Amanda and her co-stars – including Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan, Olympic gold medallist Denise Lewis and former Pussycat Dolls singer Kimberly Wyatt – will appeal to members of the public to take in the animals featured. Speaking to The Mail on Sunday, Amanda said: ‘As Brits, we are the land of the underdog and the land of pets. I think we really appreciate the loyalty and love animals give back. ‘It’s only a small minority of people who mistreat animals, whereas the majority will watch the show and think they can give something back by giving a pet a home. Perry, the black and white cat, is six, like curling up in a lap and being groomed but dislikes too much noise. Darcy, the female degu, likes playing with jingly balls and chewy toys but doesn't like being on her own . Homeless: Rocky, a greyhound, one, has only been at the centre for a month. He can be a little shy but likes living with other dogs . It’s not just cats and dogs – it’s horses, ferrets, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, anything, really and you’ll see how the RSPCA operates from the ground up. ‘I hope that every week we’ll find lots of homes for otherwise unwanted animals.’ Amanda has a Yorkshire terrier/Jack Russell cross called Rudie, and a Siberian fluffball cat, Muffy, and admits she loves her pets and gives them the full run of the house. She said: ‘When I’m on the loo, I have the children, the cat and the dog in with me chatting away.’ Given the boot: Fern is a two-year-old black gerbil  who likes lots of handling, playing with toys and her tunnels. She has been at the centre since last July . Her aim for the show is to inspire families to share her love of furry animals and to adopt one as a pet. Viewers interested in adopting a pet can apply on the ITV.com website after each show. Applications will be sifted and those offering the best matches will be vetted by the RSPCA. Successful applicants will be featured on the following week's show. She said: ‘Although there will be some tear-jerking stories along the way, we’re also going to have a lot of fun watching the celebrities get stuck in. We want to unite as many pets as we can with new owners.’ Amanda has two daughters Lexi, nine, and Hollie, three, with record producer husband Chris Hughes, and has shared her love of animals with her family. ‘The only downside of doing this job is that it’s going to be very hard for me not to take the animals home,’ she says. Loving: Petal is a ginger and white dwarf lop rabbit, aged one, that would be happy living in a house but is quite wriggly to handle. Buster, right, is a brindle and white Staffordshire bull terrier, eight, who loves his lower back tickling but is not so keen on other dogs . Companions: Ailsa and Anna are two female gerbils who need to be kept together. They are very sociable, good with children and enjoy being handled . The presenters have been trained as RSPCA volunteers and will take part in chores and witness emergency calls and rescues. The six-week ITV series begins on Wednesday, April 15 at 8pm.
