Meet Oliver, a delightful young male pig with a heart full of adventure!
Oliver has been desexed and may be small for now, but we envision him growing into a very large and lovable companion.
He adores embracing his natural instincts and is especially fond of landscaping, spending his days digging up the earth and exploring his surroundings.
With a penchant for back scratches and a keen appetite for delicious food, Oliver is sure to bring joy to a dedicated pet owner. This intelligent little guy is looking for a loving home on a hobby farm, where he can thrive and unleash his playful spirit.
While Oliver may not be suitable as a typical backyard pet, he's eager to find a space where he can roam freely and indulge in his love for nature. He can be a bit shy around new people, so patience and understanding will go a long way in helping him feel comfortable and secure in his new environment.
If you're ready to embrace the unique quirks of this smart and lovable pig, Oliver is waiting to become a cherished part of your farm family!
Contact devonport@rspcatas.org.au to discuss meeting Oliver at our Animal Care Centre - 108 Tarleton Road Spreyton.

We don’t know if an appeal against this ruling is on its way or what the sentencing will be but we our very proud of our small but mighty team (past & present) for getting this landmark case to this point.
There will be much more to come on this over the months but for now we continue to work to ensure that we prosecute our role as animal welfare inspectors ensuring that animals like The Bolt have a voice.THIS COURT DECISION COULD JUST BE THE BEST NEWS OF ALL TIME FOR THE WELFARE OF RACEHORSES.
On 27 May it was proven in a Tasmanian court that padded whips indeed cause pain and suffering to horses. This is the first court decision, since the introduction of padded whips in 2009, against their use on horses.
This ruling is significant because it wasn’t any old whip in question, it was the specific padded whip which is approved for racing, and which Racing Australia claims do not hurt horses.
The conventional whip was replaced with a padded whip in 2009 because of the massive public concern about the pain it inflicts upon horses to be whipped. The racing industry has justified its continued use of the whip by arguing it has not been proven that whipping hurts horses.
With this court decision, that argument is no longer valid.
The guilty ruling relates to Tasmanian racehorse trainer Liandra Gray, who was recorded on CCTV in July 2022 hitting a racehorse with a padded whip more than 40 times.
Under the Animal Welfare Act, the RSPCA charged the trainer with committing an act which “caused or was likely to cause unreasonable and unjustifiable pain or suffering to an animal.”
The defendant Liandra Gray pleaded not guilty. In her defence, she claimed she had used less force with the whip than a jockey would in a race.
Although the whip that was used was padded, the Court was satisfied that it caused the horse to experience 'unreasonable and unjustifiable pain or suffering.'
This ruling is first step to the end of whips in racing. Thank you so much RSPCA Tasmania for pursuing the case🐴💜👏

Meet our sweet and resilient group of rats, who have overcome the challenges of a hoarding situation and are now ready to find their forever homes. These charming companions come in a delightful mixture of ages, each with a unique personality just waiting to shine. Having just begun their journey to recovery, these lovable critters are learning to trust humans again, and they need gentle and patient owners who will shower them with the love and affection they deserve. With time, care, and a nurturing environment, they will flourish and become the affectionate pets you've always wanted.
To ensure these furry friends thrive, their new homes should be filled with enriching items that stimulate their curious minds and playful spirits. They adore cozy places to hide and explore, as well as safe toys that allow them to gnaw and keep their teeth healthy. A little extra care and attention in providing these essentials will go a long way in helping our rats build confidence and enjoy their new lives. If you're looking to embrace the joy of pet ownership and are prepared to offer the love, patience, and understanding these incredible creatures need, they can't wait to meet you and become a cherished part of your family.

We need help with a special SAFE BEDS animal.
We have a one year old staffy x who needs a double hip replacement.
This poor boy was born with a serious structural issue that our visiting vet found during a routine check up.
A shelter is not a great place to rehabilitate after the two major surgeries necessary to give this dog a comfortable life, so we need a dedicated foster carer to help us.
If this sounds like you, or someone you know, please email lchenhall@rspcatas.org.au
