“We need your help this Christmas to fix Australia’s pounds and make them a safe and sound place for all lost and homeless pets.
By Christmas, PetRescue will have helped find forever homes for more than 250,000 rescue pets, from over 750 rescue groups and shelters nationwide. Now just imagine how many more lives would be saved by next Christmas if PetRescue got the nation’s 550+ pounds on board too!
Currently only 1% of all council pounds are utilising PetRescue’s free services to advertise their pets for adoption.
This a sad state of affairs, considering 80% of pound cats and 40% of pound dogs are killed every year because homes aren’t found for them. With your help, we can change that!
We believe every pound pet deserves a public face – whether they are lost and needing to be reunited with their owner, or waiting for a new family. So, here’s what we’re going to do about it…”
I am happy to support PetRescue, and I hope other people can as well.
