Meet darling Lucy. She has overcome a neglectful situation and is now ready to find her forever home.

Lucy is a domestic medium hair cross Ragdoll with a beautiful, long silvery coat that is sure to catch your eye.

Due to severe dental issues which were affecting her quality of life, Lucy unfortunately had to have all of her teeth removed, but this hasn't fazed her at all, and she still happily tucks into her dry food with gusto.

She has also suffered from matted fur multiple times, so future owners will need to help her with grooming to keep her luscious locks tidy.

Despite her difficult past, Lucy has gained back her health and is now thriving in a loving environment. As an older cat, (she is 8), Lucy enjoys the simple pleasures in life, such as lounging in the sun and indulging in delicious meals, and craves a home with other felines for company. Her big, soulful eyes and soft meow will just melt your heart.

Come meet her today at our Animal Care Centre at 108 Tarleton Road, Spreyton and give this deserving girl the second chance she truly deserves.

GROOT IS STILL WITH US!

Meet Groot, the charming 3 and a half-year-old bulldog mix! This lovable dog is ready to find his forever home and share his vibrant spirit with an experienced owner who understands the unique needs of a deaf dog. Groot's deafness doesn't hold him back; he's an energetic and playful boy who embraces life with enthusiasm.

While he requires some training to help him learn the ropes, his eagerness to please will make it a rewarding experience for the right person. Ideal for someone who has previous experience with deaf dogs, Groot thrives in a calm environment where he can receive the structure and guidance he craves.

Groot is a true companion but may not be the perfect match for everyone. His social skills with unfamiliar dogs need work, so he's best suited to a home where he can be the only pet and not around young children. A secure yard with proper fencing is essential to keep him safe while he explores his surroundings. If you're an experienced dog owner ready to embrace Groot's quirks, you could be the perfect fit for this special guy.

Please submit an adoption application to arrange a meet and greet, he may be the best furry friend you've been searching for!

Say bye bye to battery cages

Exactly two years ago today, all of Australia’s Agriculture Ministers agreed to implement the national Animal Welfare Standards and Guidelines for Poultry.

Yet, only Western Australia has put the Standards into legislation, while the ACT has already phased out battery cages years ago.

"The animal welfare science is clear on how significantly hens suffer when they are confined to battery cages,” says Dr Suzanne Fowler, Chief Science Officer, RSPCA.

“We don’t believe there's any reason why other jurisdictions need to wait any longer.”

When all states and territories follow suit and implement the Poultry Standards, Australia will be in line with over 75% of OECD countries that have either phased out or are committed to phasing out these cruel and confining battery cages.

Help us say bye bye to barren battery cages as soon as possible at [link].
