With all the attention paid to animals with cute online profiles, shelters are aware that unattractive pets have a hard time getting adopted. Pets with unattractive photos have a hard time getting adopted as well. People look up a pet online before they go to the shelter to see the animal.
Keeping that in mind shelters are working to give pets an online makeover.

A major cell phone producer has donated phones with good cameras to the RSPCA so they can take better photos.

If this is what it takes to find homes for the "unadoptables" then this is what needs to be done. The new phones are a great help.
Hopefully all the pets featured in the video will have homes by now. I hope more of the shelters will take this approach. It is sad that so many pets stay at a shelter for so long before they are adopted. New methods might bring better results.
