Help adoptable pets stand out with a moving photo
Moving images get more attention than still ones in a busy feed. A living portrait can give a shy shelter pet a few extra seconds of someone's attention.
Filming every animal in a busy shelter takes time most volunteers don't have. With a living portrait you can reuse the listing photo you already took and turn it into a short loop for Instagram, Facebook or TikTok.
Calm, gentle moods tend to suit adoption posts best, because they show a pet who looks relaxed and approachable. Try Calm or Curious.
Photo tips
- Photograph outside the kennel if you can; bars and wire in front of the face reduce quality.
- Get down to the animal's eye level.
- Post the video with the pet's name, age and a link to the adoption listing.

Can a rescue use this for many animals?
Yes. The credit pack is the most flexible option for occasional use.
Is it honest to show a "moving" photo?
We recommend labelling it as an AI-animated photo in your post, so adopters know what they're seeing.
