I have to turn the sound off on my tv…

I have to turn the sound off on my tv every time they show this harrowing advert. I recently updated my will to include another animal charity
I wouldn’t give these people the time of day.
As another reviewer said the fat cats who run this organization don’t give a damn as long as they maximize their cut of the pie.
What they don’t realize is. There’s a lot of people like me who would have donated and left gifts in their will to them and speaking for myself that ran into thousands of pounds but they lose thousands of pounds by showing such upsetting harrowing footage and sound. It also upsets children very much. But as long as they get their cut of the pie they couldn’t care less.

Repetitive horror show.

I will not give to a charity using such negative adverts. I do not want to see a bear screamed every 20 minutes or so. We all know what animal cruelty is without having to witness it constantly. Why don't you give a positive view of the successes your having instead of this harrowing horror show.

Absolutely hate this so called "…

Absolutely hate this so called " charity " There advertisements on tele vision is done to pull at your heart strings it's called emotional blackmail!! Why are they standing there filming cruelty to bears and other animals. I'm the first one to give to charity but I'll never give in to emotional blackmail. The least they could do is give a warning of cruelty before they show the commercial. Then you have a choice to watch or not. Then I suppose the fat cats who run this outfit are not bothered about anything apart from there cut of the pie !!!!

Hello there,

I am sorry to hear that you are upset by our tv adverts. We do recognise that our bear cub advert is upsetting to watch and I have shared your comments with my colleagues who look after our TV ads.

To give some context, we have tried a number of different approaches over the years to see what works best in terms of raising funds to stop the abuse happening to animals. We have found that adverts albeit hard hitting ones which show the plight of the animals and how financial support can help us rescue them, do work really well for us in terms of raising funds to stop animal abuse and rescue more bears.

The footage in the advert was sent to us as part of an investigation we did into the illegal wildlife trade and led to us being able to track down the bear cub and its mother and rehome them at one of our many sanctuaries.

Thank you again for sharing your comments on the advert as we do log and take feedback like this on-board

Thank you,

Unsure

Not sure about this charity. Says donate to suffer ing animals. But reviews are about transportation of people’s pets , Hopefully the money I gave goes to the right people. Then goes to animal care. Not pet transport. 🙏

Excellent and professional pet transportation

I have recently moved my cats from the NL, and opted to use Calagran Four paws based on the recommendation of a friend. The communications were clear and I had prompt replies. The team was pleasant, and more importantly, noted issues with the documentation for my cats in time for me to fix it. Clive (the driver) was very nice and very professional, and contacted me in advance to arrange things. He arrived on time, drove carefully, and evidently cares for the animals as he repeatedly checked on them.
I would highly recommend this company.

We have recently moved our pet dog from…

We have recently moved our pet dog from Greece to the UK. As he is a large dog (Belgian Sheepdog) we had to transport him from Heathrow to home in Staffordshire.
I contacted Calagran Four paws and experienced
excellent communication from start to finish.
The staff were pleasant and informative with a special mention for Clive, the driver, who was a very nice chap and very professional while dealing with both my daughter and the dog. I would highly recommend this company.
