Our Impact
We love without limits, giving our all to help the dogs, cats and pet owners who need us. Here’s how we make a difference.
Protect loving homes
In 2025, our food banks provided 636,662 pet meals to East and Central Scotland to protect loving homes.
Find loving homes
Last year, we rehomed and reunited 318 pets with loving families. We also accepted 343 pets into our care at the Home, with almost 50% of these being lost or abandoned pets.
