Partridges particularly Grey Partridge were found in every county in Ireland. However the species has declined. The species is now the target of a species recovery plan. This has involved birds being introduced from Estonia, which are bred in captivity with Irish birds.

This kitten was found wandering around Lower John street just at the Front Room pub last weekend; it's black except for a little patch of white on its chest.

It is very friendly and used to other cats, and is litter-trained, so it is probably someone's pet.

Is this your kitten? Or do you think you know whose kitten it might be? It's approximately 3 months old, the finders reckon.

Please call us on 056 777 1635 if you have any information as to who might own it. thank you. Ref # 1278930.

He’s Safe! 🦢 Yesterday evening Kilkenny SPCA received several calls from our wonderful community that a swan had flown into a building and seemed injured. With the help of Noel, our animal welfare officer the hero of the day was called - Mr Pat Durkin Pat checked the swan for any injuries and once he confirmed it was healthy he brought the swan back to the river with the help of Liam, a local man who was more than willing to help. Thank you to everyone involved for your help! 🦢 #volunteers #community #animalwelfare #kkspca

As National Volunteer month comes to an end remember the best way to support Kilkenny SPCA is to make a small donation. https://www.kilkennyspca.ie/donations/kkspca-donation/ #Kilkennyspca #animalwelfare #donate #NationalVolunteerMonth

This is Kane, a 3-year-old Dalmatian who is fully vaccinated and neutered. He is a big friendly dog who loves exercise and affection. If you think you have room in your life to offer Kane a home for the rest of his days, please call us on 056 777 1635. Ref # 271988. DAFM Reg No. JPT200002C. Thank you. While spots are a hallmark for dalmatians, some dalmatians come without them. Although rare, these dogs can sometimes have a clear white coat without a single spot. This happens because of a recessive pigmentation gene.

A small donation can make a big difference to an animals life. You can make a donation here https://www.kilkennyspca.ie/donations/kkspca-donation/ #Kilkennyspca #Animalwelfare #donate #donationsmakeadifference #MakeADifference #donatetoday
