    Hi md323,
    Sorry to hear you've been put in such an awful situation... It seems to be so common these days in a very tough rental market.
    Can you tell us a bit more about your dog? Neutered? Age? Temperament? Likes/dislikes?
    :)

    Hi, sorry, i should have mentioned all that in my post.
    He is neutered, He is 'about' six, i say about because he was a stray we found .
    He is very friendly once he knows you, is a bit boisterous and likes to bark.
    Im not selling him very well but thats the way is!!
    He is used to kids as we have three children, from ages 2 to 17.
    He isnt a full breed.
    He is micro chipped

    If you can post a photo, it can really help to "sell" the dog.
    He's an awkward-ish age to rehome, but if he's a nice character and easy to live with, you should strike lucky.
    No harm to contact some local rescues if even just to get them to post him on their rehoming pages.

    Would you know of any local rescues in the Limerick area?

    We're not allowed to recommend individual rescues on the forum, but I'd hope you'll get some PMs that might help. Actually, some of the bigger rescues may not be local as such, but do rehome dogs nationwide and have a large social media following.

    Hi,

    We started feeding a young female cat over the Summer, and after a few weeks she turned up with a young female kitten.

    We're looking to find a home for both of them (together or separately).

    The mother has been neutered and had her shots, the kitten is due to be done soon.

    I travel between Gorey and Dublin regularly, so I can deliver anywhere along that route!

    I'm looking for a good home for 2 kittens,they were born wild but have got a lot friendlier in the last few weeks.
    One loves attention,the other will take food from your hand but doesn't like being touched.he might come around with time. They're very playful & will only be rehomed together.

    Cosmo is a 7 year old chihuahua. He is neutered, house trained and has undergone basic obedience training. He is very affectionate with people he knows and loves nothing more than a long walk and snuggling on the couch in the evening.

    He's not good with other dogs initially, however in a boarding kennel situation he is fine with other dogs so he probably just needs careful introductions. He is wary of new people but will usually warm to them with calm introductions. At which point he is then stuck to them like glue. He will also guard his food and toys, but this can be managed.

    He has been with us since he was a pup of 12 weeks. However, our circumstances have changed. With a new child in the house, Cosmo has become increasingly unsettled and anxious as the little one becomes more mobile. Even though we keep them seperated as best we can, we are worried that he may injure her if she was ever to grab him or corner him.

    For that reason we're looking for a home for him with no children and preferably no other dogs.

    We are gutted that it has come to this, but it would be irresponsible to keep him in this situation. Not just for our daughter's sake, but for his as well, as he has been rather miserable since she arrived.

    If you're interested in rehoming Cosmo please drop me a PM. I can send more photos to anyone who is interested.

    We're based in Dublin City, but we can take him wherever he needs to go.

    Thanks

    Considering rehoming my two Parrotlets (Pocket Parrots), one female, albino and one male, various shades of blue.

    Both are 7 years old (live to 20). Male is hand reared while the female was raised in an avery so is not hand tame. They were never used for breeding and would not be suitable as a breeding pair due to recessive genes.

    Please note the male is noisy and likes attention but otherwise they are very easy to keep.

    If anyone has any questions please ask (athlone based)

    Please don't put a healthy young dog to sleep. :( Where in the country are you? Have you asked local animal charities if they can help?

    Good gracious, please try rescues before asking for a vet to put a healthy, happy dog to sleep. A native breed as well...

    What a gorgeous dog.
    Please think again and try a few rescues.Mostly for the dog's sake but also for your father.
    I'm sure there are people on the animal and pets forum who could make great reccomendations on who to contact.

    If he was adopted from an SPCA you are obliged to get in touch with them for rehoming as per the adoption contract. They may be happy enough for you to rehome him yourself, but you do need to get in touch with them first.

    My mother got two guinea pigs about 5 months ago thinking both were males. Turns out one was female. Anyway she got pregnant and gave birth to a boy. Then she got pregnant again despite being separated from the father and had two more.
    She is looking to rehome the father and first son together. No cage included though as she has the mother and two babies now and wants to keep the two and the mother but separately.
    Free to take away as long as you have proof of a cage for the father and son.

    Can't take the piggies, much as I'd love too, but you can get a male neutered easy enough and keep with her for company, they don't like living alone, or if a baby is female keep them together. A good small animal vet will give you advice, they can breed from fairly young, so be careful.

    From experience we had issues with our neutered pigs. They don't always do great after it. He could be kept in a cage near the others though.

    murphf, the quote below is from post #1 of this thread.
    It couldn't be any clearer. Also the forum charter states that you may not name, recommend or discuss any rescue in this forum. This is especially true for Facebook pages where there is no proper organisation set up to vet or home check potential adopters. Please respect the forum rules and the rules of this thread.

    Thanks,
    CB.
