Scum behaviour. This is the dregs of. Society that say things like “needing gone today”
Shouldn’t have animals.
It’s a privilege to own an animal.
“Needing gone today”
This is very dangerous and irresponsible. Animals aren’t ornaments that you can just get rid of or dispose of.
Every day, our very small team take calls from lovely people who genuinely need help, and then others who have jumped into taking a pet online because they thought he/she looked “cute” but then realised comes along,
Vet registration,
Insurance,
Food,
Toys,
Stimulation,
Attention,
Training,
Love,
That’s too much, so here come the posts, “needing gone today” like an old
sofa pumped out onto the street waiting to be picked up.
Where will these kittens end up? It’s too late for the likes of us to try and help, because so many messages such as “pm me hun” or “interested” have already been added to the post, meaning the cycle of these two young lives looks to be brutal, if you can give up a pet with “needing gone today” do you actually really care where they end up?
Our message is clear, don’t give animals away on social media. It’s not safe.
Contact a rescue or a rehoming organisation.
Be a responsible person.
Posts like this really frustrate us.
Fun fact about this X post, this photo was (at its height) up to 190,000 likes, however when 1 user added the context, 12,000 unliked the photo within 12 hours.
Many people said it was “AI Slop” - rightly so. But it still created a laugh, a laugh that sadly 12,000 took back. 🤨

I remember this guy, the appeals we had to go to help him into a new home, there wasn’t ever light at the end of the tunnel, until Pauline got in touch that was! 🥰 🐾
“I thought I would give you a wee update on Bjorn. I adopted him over three months ago.
In the beginning, Mr Bjorn wasn’t easy to handle. He was very reactive to other dogs and sometimes even to people (I think it could have been due to post-adoption stress).
Anyway, he’s had a few sessions with a dog trainer, and now he’s doing much better. I’m so proud of him, and I think he’s made incredible progress!
At home, he’s like a little baby. He’s very affectionate and playful, and he’s just a wonderful doggy. Bjorn enjoys our little trips to the Pentland Hills and loves to stalk the sheep😅.
We’ve already been on our first big hike, and he had so much fun in the mountains!
I would like to thank you guys for helping me with Bjorn’s adoption. I feel very lucky to have him. ❤️.
Here is a few pics of Bjorn. Sorry I couldn’t pick one or two photos, he’s such a great model 🔥🤩
Kind regards
Paulina”
Bjorn, we remember all the appeals we done for you.
They were all worth it to wait for your mum Paulina to come along, what an update! ❤️ happy new home gorgeous fella!

Mhari and Paris are two lovely female French Bulldogs.
They are looking for a new home together as their owners' circumstances have sadly changed meaning he can't look after them anymore.
Mhari and Paris are good with other dogs and children - no cats. They are also chipped.
Mhari and Paris eat dry kibble and can be left on their own if you need to go out.
They are registered at the vets and love to meet new people - often getting excited for attention.
Mhari and Paris travel well in the car and love treats and toys, although they can become obsessive over their toys.
Both walk with a dual lead and are good with water.
They are very loving and affectionate and will make great pets for a family or someone wishing to offer them a loving home.
Mhari and Paris are both crate trained. Paris gets 1 antihistamine a day for allergies.
Both are healthy.
For more information or to offer a new home please email [email protected]
Good luck Odin!
Odin is a beautiful 3 year old male Border Collie. He is available and looking for a new home.
Sadly due to the owners health , Odin needs someone who can provide him the stimulation and attention he needs. He is very much loved but would be best in a home with someone who can give him lots of walks and attention.
He is chipped and neutered and healthy with no concerns.
Odin can be wary of strangers to begin with and would need a little time to get use to anyone new.
He is okay with some pets and can be wary of others - due to this, he’d be best in a home with no other pets to save him any unsettlement.
Odin eats dry and wet food and is also crate trained.
He loves toys and can be strong on the lead.
Odin has had the same owner since being a pup.
He isn’t a fan of the hoover but does love to play with a ball.
He is more of a fan of women than men, so may be best with a lone female looking for company, although we will consider male households too.
Odin is very loving and affectionate. No cats.
For more information or to offer Odin a new home please email directly to [email protected]
Always caring 🥰

Lovely update! Happy new home Cleo
“Cleo has been here for three days and the entire family is in love with her
She is like a sticky plaster and prefers to be attached to one of us at all times, she likes to be touching at least one part of you at all times, and we could not be happier.
Thank you for making the connection for us, we feel like she’s been here forever.
Katie”
Another check up tomorrow on the BP (blood pressure) not going to lie, absolutely hate these tests when you have to give blood! 😦 makes me wobbly at the knees!
Would appreciate any ideas to not be so queasy! 😊
Beautiful Holly, rest easy Lass x
“Hi all
Sorry for the random message but I just wanted to thank you.
I adopted my last dog Holly from you (she was living in kilsyth) I’m not sure if you'd remember her as I know you rehome so many.
We sadly lost her in August at the age of 13.
We adopted her when she was 4/nearly 5.
She had an amazing life, I kept in touch with her previous owner and gave her updates every so often.
Our hearts are broken but thank you so much for helping bring her into our lives. We'll be forever grateful” - Christine , can share in memory of Holly.
So sorry for your loss Christine ❤️ we’re all thinking of you. Xx

Can you please share for this lovely pair?
Soba and Kimchi are both 6.5 year old domestic short haired cats.
They are looking for a new home together.
Soba and Kimchi would like a home with no other pets as this is what they have been use too.
They are okay with older children who have an understanding of animals.
Both Soba and Kimchi are neutered and chipped They are healthy with no medical problems.
They eat Naturo brand cat food and enjoy natural treats.
Both can be left alone but really enjoy human company.
They sleep in different places depending on how they feel.
Soba and Kimchi are house cats but do love access to the outdoors, away from busy roads would be the best thing for them.
They love toys and travel in a crate together as they don't like to be in separate carries.
They are registered at the vets and are up to date with their vaccinations.
Soba and Kimchi are very intelligent, active and playful and full of personality.
They are also very loving and love a good cuddle.
Soba is more of the dominant cat and Kimchi more timid. They love to have lots of cat scratchers around to tend to their claws and to play before they eat.
They are both brothers and have never been apart.
