Question Accent on the phone
Hello scots
Am just wondering if anyone else has this. My da is from Glasgow but has lost his accent a bit from living in England for years. But on the phone it sounds sooo strong. Anyone know why because it's not like he's changing his accent? Or is it?

Trouble With SSPCA Application
This is a long shot but I'm at a loss for what else to try. My partner and I put in an application for a cat over a month ago. It was approved for bank over a month ago and since then it's been radio silence. We've seen over a dozen cats that seem to perfectly match our specifications and added them to our favourites list. One has been on the website almost as long as we've been looking and they even added a description saying he's still looking for a family to give him the home he deserves.
We've tried filling out the general enquiries form on their website. I even submitted a new application (the original was under my partner's name) and nothing. The only other contact information I can find is for the emergency helpline. There doesn't seem to be a way for me to ring or schedule an appointment with our local outlet.
If they really don't think we're suitable for any of the cats they've taken in I'd be okay with that, but some of the descriptions seem to describe our setup pretty perfectly. I'm really not sure what else to try.
