Still Thinking of Christmas Gifts? Pets Shouldn’t Be On Your List

Christmas is only a day away and with the festive season upon us, you might come across some adorable videos of people being surprised with pets as gifts, but is it a good idea? We speak to someone part of a rescue and rehome network to find out why pets aren’t presents, as well as the work that they do to rescue street cats, one at a time.
