FAQ’s

How can you afford to give away cash prizes?
Prizes are paid by our lottery provider, so there is no risk of us being out of pocket!
Why do I receive communications from GiveCircle?
We trust GiveCircle to operate our lottery for us, so some lottery correspondence will come from GiveCircle. GiveCircle has recently changed its name from Donr, so you may also see Donr mentioned.
Partnering with GiveCircle helps us to raise the funds we need to provide love and care to dogs and cats. They take care of all of the admin, so that we can focus on what we do best.
Why do you use separate Facebook and Instagram pages to promote your lottery?
We use separate Facebook and Instagram pages to promote our lottery. This is to ensure that our lottery adverts are only received by adults living in Great Britain. It also means that, if anyone would rather not play our lottery, they can stop seeing lottery-related adverts without missing out on everything else we’re sharing on our social media channels!
