Mrs Murray's Home for Stray Dogs and Cats Brickfield, East Seaton, Aberdeen, AB24 1XL
Each year over 1000 animals pass through our doors - Mos She was the widow of a local advocate.

Mrs Murray's was founded back in 1889, named after our founder Mrs Susan Murray, who worked tirelessly to provide food and a place of refuge for stray dogs and cats in the City and Shire of Aberdeen. The Home has since expanded to take in animals from their owners who, for a variety of reasons can no longer keep them and find new homes for them. Each year around 1000 animals pass through our doors

- Most abandoned and unwanted. The Home serves the North East of Scotland and is a registered charity. We receive no government funding and is largely dependent on legacies, donations and the support of the public to help fund the cost of looking after the animals and securing their future. Based at:
Brickfield, East Seaton, Aberdeen, AB24 1XL

Only 4 wks or so to go to our ball co-hosted with Deeside & Kincardine Cats Protection Scotland
Our share of proceeds will go to kick-start our funds for a new modern rehoming block 🙏🏻
It's also our 135th anniversary year. ☺️
After the rain today, who's all coming to party with us ?

Like many today, we also didn't escape the downpour 😔
Our rehoming block flooded 😒
It's the lowest point in the Home so all rainwater heads that way 🤷🏼‍♀️
thankfully, all the doggies were moved to different blocks and escaped the most of it.
Another reason why we need to fundraise to upgrade this block and modernise the facilities.

Hector's back ❤️
Thankyou everyone so much for sharing our post. To all the local pages, Fubar News Lost and Found Pets Deeside & Kincardine Cats Protection ScotlandDeeside & Kincardine Cats Protection Scotland And all the local vets who took time to share.
Hector loves the outdoors and even though he is 17 still likes to survey his 'land" outside
He has his own secret way of getting in and out of the Home, so is never stuck outside.
He is under veterinary supervision and medication for his liver.
He is well known by all our customers and visitors to the Home and can often be found in charge of reception.
We are grateful to have him back where he belongs.
Thank you so much everyone for your help and support in finding him.
But please don't pick him up or feed him outside - he has his own food and meds which he gets.

*URGENT*
Someone has picked up our black and white cat Hector from outside our property last night!
He is 17years old and on medication, which he has now missed.

He us very much loved and we'll known in the area abd we want him home!
01224 483624
EDIT:Approx 7.30pm last night. They send child away for a cat box so must stay local. We are hoping that he has been picked up in good faith if they had a concern but no one has been in touch to say they found a cat and we have been notifying the vets etc also.

Morning folks, we've had a wee bit of a change at reception with a new door entry system.
When visiting, you will need to push the buzzer 🖲 at the entrance, and the reception team will let you in. 👌🏻
Dont worry if you forget and wonder why the door won't open as normal, it will take us a day or two to get to grips with the changes also 😆
