Confessions: Animal Hoarding
By Dave Macleod, Tuesday 3rd May 2022

Season 2
Channel Premiere
Weekdays at 08:55, 16.50 and 21:00, from 23rd May to 9th June.
Repeated Saturdays and Sundays at 08:30, 12:40 and 19:20, from 28th May to 10th July.

An intimate portrayal of people and animals affected by hoarding and the challenges of confronting this unusual psychological condition. Delve into the hearts and minds of individuals afflicted, the family members and friends who want to help prevent their loved ones from spinning further out of control. Discover the toxic conditions and witness the impossible challenge of trying to care for so many pets at once.

With no existing protocol, the series coordinates task-force style mediation by psychologists, animal welfare experts, veterinarians, friends and families, and provides safe opportunities to explore the compulsive caregiving, digging deep into the desire for love and paralyzing fears of loss to understand how the problem grew so extreme and to provide tools to put a healthy plan for rehabilitation into action. In most cases, the problem is not addressed until it becomes a crime...until now.
