Whether you’re preparing to adopt or looking for assistance with your pet, RSPCA NSW is here to help!
For many Australians, pets are cherished family members. However, caring for pets requires time, planning, and commitment. That’s why RSPCA NSW is dedicated to supporting pet owners with expert guidance and practical advice.
Bringing an animal into your home can be incredibly rewarding, but it’s essential to ensure their needs align with your lifestyle. Each year, our shelters and adoption centre welcome thousands of animals whose owners may have faced unforeseen challenges or found themselves unprepared for the responsibilities of pet care. Thoughtful preparation can help prevent these situations and create a lasting bond with your pet.
If you’re ready to welcome an animal into your life, consider adopting or fostering from RSPCA NSW and giving a deserving pet a second chance.
Looking after a pet can be a rewarding, enjoyable experience, but caring for animals takes time, planning, and plenty of research. Every pet deserves to enjoy a good quality of life, which is why it’s important to carefully consider both your own lifestyle and needs, as well as the needs of any animal you welcome into your home.
When it comes to caring for our pets and improving animal welfare, research and preparedness are key to providing positive, effective support. That’s why RSPCA NSW is committed to helping humans help their animals by mentoring animal guardians seeking support and assistance with their pets.
RSPCA NSW understands how heartbreaking it can be when a beloved pet goes missing. That’s why we aim to help every lost animal who turns to us for help by reuniting them with their owners. We provide educational resources to help animal carers reduce the risk of losing their pet and step-by-step guides to assist individuals who find a lost animal.
We strive to assist every animal who turns to us for help, but not before doing everything in our power to keep animals with the loving families they already have. If you’re considering surrendering your pet to one of our shelters or adoption centres, RSPCA NSW may be still be able to provide you with guidance and support.
As the leading animal welfare organisation in NSW, we’re responsible for keeping both our communities and animal companions safe, especially during emergency situations such as bushfires, droughts, and floods. In addition to directly supporting people, wildlife, and pets, we also educate pet carers about emergency preparedness to proactively minimise risk and protect animals’ lives.
RSPCA Pet Insurance offers four levels of flexible cover for cats and dogs across Australia. Designed to help cover the costs of eligible vet bills for specified accidental injury and illness, our pet insurance can ensure your furry best friend can live a happy and healthy life. Best of all, a portion of premiums contribute directly to supporting the animals in our care, enabling us to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome animals in need.
The streets can be a dangerous place for stray and wandering animals. Wandering animals are at a higher risk of being injured by cars, contracting infectious diseases, and being attacked by other animals. Caring for stray animals is everyone’s responsibility – it takes a whole community working together to ensure all creatures, great and small, can enjoy a good quality of life.
RSPCA NSW rehomes a range of different animals, from dogs, cats, and birds to horses, rabbits, and sheep! We believe that all creatures, great and small, can bring joy to our families and homes. Begin your adoption journey today and make an adorable lifelong friend!
By providing temporary homes for our animals, we can ensure they get the care they need until they are ready to be adopted. Join our network of foster carers for an incredibly rewarding experience; with your help, we can change the lives of some of the state’s most vulnerable animals.
We rely on our generous supporters to continue assisting the thousands of animals turning to RSPCA NSW for help. No matter how small your contribution, every gift makes a lifesaving difference for animals in need.
By raising funds and lending a hand to communities and their pets, our volunteers play a pivotal role in our work throughout NSW. If you have a genuine concern for animals and enjoy meeting like-minded people, consider becoming an RSPCA NSW volunteer today!
