Great segment from the Ray D’arcy Show recently with two members of the ISPCA as well as Tomás, Fifi & Liam, three of the many beautiful puppies in search of their forever homes. Some great bits of information in here on the things to consider when rehoming a dog!

Hi guys working on something at the moment that will involve all of us!!! Drafting some documents to the Gov on animal welfare / rights, and the implementation of an animal offenders register for Ireland. Have to figure out the signature petition procedure but I hope you will all sign , share and spread the word for this incredibly worthy and much needed legislation. Anyone that harms an innocent animal should be shown a severe punishment, and have a knock on effect to make it known that they will no longer get away with their demonic , evil and depraved carry on. IT NEEDS TO STOP NOW. I hope I have your support! Thanks x #animalsofinstagram #animalwelfare #animalwelfareireland #beavoice #dogsarefamily #yorkiesofinstagram #animalslivesmatter #veganlifestyle #bestfriend #law #legislation #ispca #leovaradkar @leovaradkar1

I've created this page because I want to make a difference. I'm inspired by the work of ISPCA and wanted to support them by raising money. Please help me help them by giving whatever you can using the 'Give Now' button. The more people that know about ISPCA , the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!

I’m doing the Women’s mini-marathon this year in aid of the Irish Society for Prevention of cruelty to animals.

I’m doing it for the ISPCA this year because: 

a) I’m already a patron and 

b) last year I done it for dog’s trust and I’m not a fan of the yellow, and ISPCA colours are blue ... so a completely selfless reason that has nothing to do with what t-shirt I’ll wear on the day :D

Would you abandoned an innocent child in the middle of nowhere? It's important to realise that a pet is for life. If you can't handle them anymore don't just abandon them, give them to an organisation that will take care of them. Not being able to care for them is not shameful, abandoning them in the middle of nowhere is shameful. Give them a chance.

Pet shops contributing to rise in number of strays, says ISPCA

IPOH, April 21, 2015:

Irresponsible pet shops are partly responsible for an increasing number of unwanted animals in the city.

Ipoh Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ISPCA) vice-president Ricky Soong said pet shops often did not advise their customers on the real cost of owning a pet.

He said the pet shops did not care and were only interested in making money, as were puppy mills (large-scale breeding businesses).

These shops often sold purebreds to anyone who had the money, regardless of whether that person was a suitable owner.

Pet shops did not ask questions about their customers, such as their home and lifestyle, Soong said.

“Some breeds are just not suited for city life in apartments, or people with small children, or people who have a busy lifestyle,” he said.

The main question asked by pet shops, said Soong, was whether the customer was paying by cash or credit card.

Pet shops would also try to enquire if their customers would buy any other things for their new puppy, such as a dish, leash and collar.

“Most pet owners only calculate the price of the food and add it to the cost of the dog and figure that they can afford it regardless of their budget.

“The pet shops would make it look like it’s a match made in heaven.

“But many buyers are unaware of the care required and the acceptable standards,” he told The Rakyat Post when contacted.

As a result, when a pet no longer fit the owner’s lifestyle, usually due to health or behavioural problems, the animals were often given to shelters or abandoned in areas where their likely fate was death by accident, starvation or disease.

Very often, these pets were abandoned without being neutered in order to save cost. This led to the number of strays multiplying further.

Soong said animal shelters and rescue groups were already operating at full capacity and were unable to take in more strays, but the public often did not know this.

“We have been scolded by the public for refusing to take in strays and they accuse us of being interested only in receiving donations.”

He advised the public to exercise discretion when purchasing any puppy or kitten from a pet store to ensure that they were not indirectly supporting puppy mills.

Right so me being me I begged my coworker to let me borrow her phone (mine is stuck in Dublin :C) today during my break to let me call the DSPCA to get more information on the raccoon but they didn't answer, so I'm calling again to find out more. 

If he hasn't been killed or claimed then maybe I can find him a foster, or a home in the UK seeing as there seems to be a better exotic community there, someone with experience might be able to care for him properly. I completely doubt they'd let me foster him even if his other option is euthanasia but I'd hate myself if I could have had a chance to save him but didn't. I should have called them sooner. 

Anyway, maybe theres still a chance of saving him, if there is I'll do my best to make it work somehow
