PET OF THE WEEK

Meet PETA 3 yr old Female

been with us since August 2007.
Peta would love a home where she is
the only cat, she is an independant
girl, who loves her food and to laze about.

DONATIONS NEEDED

Our pasta and rice bins are almost empty, please consider donating a packet while your doing your weekly grocery shop.

We are currently running extremely low in our canned puppy and wet kitten food (chicken variety's) stocks. MY DOG canned food is also needed for our aging dogs. Any donations of doggie or cat treats and toys are also gratefully accepted. If you can help, you will find our food bins in most supermarkets around the coast. We have also been inundated with blankets, so much so that we have filled our shed to the roof, so please consider donating them to an alternative charity, until we deplete our stocks. Many thanks for your support.

ANIMAL ADMISSIONS

We accept Cats, Dogs, Kittens and Puppies from many sources, including surrenders.
As the refuge maintains a strict non-euthanasia policy, there may not be enough room in the refuge for new admissions. Surrenders are made only by appointment, and when space is available. We reserve the right to reject any animal without explanation. A fee is payable upon surrender to assist in caring for the animal.

LOST DOGS & CATS - NEW INFORMATION

If you have lost your dog or cat, visit the Maroochy Council website at www.maroochy.qld.gov.au. They now have photos of all animals inpounded, check with them regularly. If you have found a pet check our lost pets page to see if you have found a lost pet. We can also post a picture and information as to where you lost your pet.

ADOPT-A-PET

We have dogs and cats arriving each week, for the vets to desex, heartguard, micro chip, worm and vaccinate. They then are given a flea bath and capstar, before they are to be rehomed.

The Refuge has a strict NON-EUTHANASIA POLICY.

Pets will give a lifetime of love and affection in return for a good home, food and lots of tender loving care.
We would love to have caring people welcome one of our four-legged friends into their family. If you're thinking about welcoming a loving dog or cat into your family, please consider our four legged friends requirements.

Shire councils have different regulations regarding animal ownership, A permit may be required to keep more than 2 dogs on residential premises.

Please Note: If you are renting a dwelling, confirmation in writing from your landlord about animal ownership at that dwelling is required.
