aww...that's sweet of them.
Actually...If a member has their pets taken away, their names -stay- on the pet. Whenever they're donated, the name transfers into "Pound's Pet."
For example: When kittyhello147 was banned for arguing over a custom pet was her's or not, and she was proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that she was lying to try to get it by both Nick and Tess, -all- of her pets (Around 1500) were sent to the pound. Her downfall is shown here if you care to see.
To prove this, here's a one of her pets...

As you can see, it's in the actual pound itself. And, if you look at the link, it says "Given to kittyhello147 by: kittyhello147"
That's what you see when it's yanked from a person. In the case of a pet being donated, you see this...

And it will read: "Given to Pound by: firefox_dark23"
And if an account is deleted, as in a member deleting their account by choice, it will keep the 'Pound' name in the title and will read "Given to Pound by: Deleted account #(fill in their code)" Sorry, but it would take too long find an example.

But there -are- generous people out there who gift, and a lot, and wonderful pets. But...in the case of the Zebra, she severely broke the rules and it was rightfully taken from her. So word of warning, they're serious about no double accounts!
