The Canadian University of Dubai has partnered with Sharjah Cats and Dogs Shelter to to find homes for rescuedd animals. The university displays rescue cats and dogs in a 'shop window' to help raise awareness of their plight and thus increase their chances of finding a new home.
"To have the best chance, the animals need to be in front of prospective owners," said Emma Smith, from Scads.
"So. it's great that Canadian University of Dubai lets us use their facility as that invariably leads to some of them being adopted."
As a result of the display, eight unwanted pets have been rehomed. On average, Scads takes in 14 stray cats and dogs each day - more than 5,100 in a year. The majority are put down.
