I posted an ad and paid for it and within minutes it was removed. I did not know that it would be removed all I’m asking for let me repost it or refund me please and thank you.

I appreciate your time looking at this matter.

Unfortunately the reason the ad was placed removed is due to despite our concerted efforts to create a safe and trustworthy Pets category, there has still been quite a bit of concern from animal welfare groups and from our user community regarding the safety of the Pets section – specifically the risks involved in giving away dogs for free. The harsh reality in some circumstances is that there’s a greater chance that animals given for free will fall into the hands of abusers, hoarders, dog fighting rings (for bait animals), and other varied types of unethical people.

We don’t take these concerns lightly. In an attempt to increase the safety of the wonderful animals posted on Kijiji, we have decided to remove the “Pets > To Give or Donate” section from site, and we have disallowed users to post their dog for free. Each individual posting a dog ad is required to list the animal for a fee.

So I have gone ahead and reinstated the ad and then placed it on hold, so that way, you can proceed to the My Ads section and edit the ad’s price to at least a nominal rehoming fee of $25 or more to have the ad removed from it’s hold and activated.
