As most of you may have noticed, Facebook has been acting quite erratically lately. Some of our posts were banned as abusive, my FB account was cancelled, etc..
This is why we have been thinking about the best way to distribute our posts and our blog without being at the merci of the Facebook software. How to maximize our reach and reduce our dependency of Facebook.
Facebook is a tool for us, we are trying to find the best way to use it, not to depend on it.
From today our Facebook Groups will only be used to distribute announcements about our most urgent rescue cases.
Our Blogs will of course will continue fonctioning, but we will be using them to deliver exclusive content not available on Facebook. This content will be delivered by email and you will of course be able to share it on FB if you wish.
Why are we doing this? Because, simply put, we want to be able to reach our Core network at all times. As things are right now we are at the mercy of the Facebook software.
This is, in a way, a move to gain control of our crowd and our networks.
Come on, admit it, you love us!!!
Sign up to this blog for exclusive content… you won’t be dissapointed. For the technologically impaired, see that square on the top right side of the blog? There!
Love to all, see you on email!

yes, it has been acting up for me too. i tried to send members of my social club a message with an update of our website and it said it had been reported as abusive. the same thing happened when i tried to send a copy of the site i blog for to someone to proof the info about his event i was reporting on. very freaky indeed!
you know we LOVE you!
I signed up.
I corrected my website.
Facebook is whacked! How could we NOT love you,xx
It happened to me and to many other groups administrators…because some members of those groups do not like receiving messages !!!!!!! and most likely reported us as SPAM…but, I realized that if I past the links WITHOUT http://……………it works, the messages go through…BUT just for caution I decided to send only one block message per week…some people just don’t want to get it, or are sabotaging our actions, who knows…
One message a week would be useless for us… we wouldn’t have rehomed a single animal, there would have been no engagement, nothing..
Not allowing me to post my email, Viktor!!!
Top right part of the blog pls.. have a look
Facebook seems to target animal welfare groups you/we are not the first to be knocked off. Everyone should watch their language so they do not have a valid reason to flag a post and then delete a person or group.
Of course we love you you!
