Keeping Your Pet
Find out what help is available to you if you are struggling to keep your pet, including support from our Inspectors.
Helping you and your pet stay together
Our Inspectors are here to support you — not to separate you from your animals, which we only do in the most extreme cases. We’re focused on keeping people and their pets together through a range of preventative support and referral services. Whether you’re facing challenges with pet care, or other issues, our team is here to help you find solutions that work for you and your animal.
Abandoning animals is never the answer.
If you are struggling to look after your pet or find yourself in a position where you think you might have to surrender your pet, please call our Animal Helpline on 03000 999 999.

It costs us £63,000 every day to continue the work that animals across Scotland depend on. Our work is only possible because of the generosity of people like you.
