One of Australia’s native animals, the Flying Fox (better known as bats), has been seeing a rise in paralysis syndrome this summer. It’s causing mass deaths in colonies, and there are now fears it could spread to other animals.

If you're in search of a lively companion, look no further—I'm Harli, ready to be your best friend for life!

I’m a vibrant girl with boundless energy and so much love to give. I’m always up for a game of fetch, eager to learn new commands, and I adore spending quality time with my human family, especially when it comes to snuggles.

While I currently live with other dogs, I do prefer to be the center of attention, so a home without other dogs would be ideal for me.

I would make a wonderful companion—think of me as the perfect indoor/outdoor gal who loves to lounge inside at night.

One of my favorite activities? Car rides! Plus, I'm super tidy, so you don’t need to worry about messes.

I hope to find my forever home soon and start my adventure as part of your family! 🐶

🚨 IMPORTANT MICROCHIP UPDATE FOR PET OWNERS 🚨

HomeSafeID, the microchip registration database used by AWLQ, will soon no longer be operational. This means you will no longer be able to log in to update your contact details, change ownership, or identify your pet should they go missing. AWLQ urges all pet owners to check and update your pet’s microchip registration to keep them safe and easily identifiable should they ever go missing.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼:

✅ Check your pet’s microchip registration! Use your pet’s microchip number to search at Pet Address 👉 https://petaddress.com.au/. If you’re unsure of your pet’s microchip number, check your adoption agreement or community clinic invoice. You can also have your pet scanned at any vet clinic.

✅ Re-register with an approved national microchip database. If your pet’s microchip is currently registered with HomeSafeID, you must update the registration with another provider. There is a registration fee set by the new registry.

⚠️ If your pet’s registration is not updated and they become lost, vets, councils and shelters will be unable to view your contact details when scanning their chip, making it harder to reunite with your pet.

Please don’t wait — ensure your pet’s future is safe and secure today! 🐕🐈💜

It’s not stopping. Flying Fox Paralysis Syndrome (FFPS) is spreading, and more Flying Fox camps (roosts) are becoming affected. The same is true for Lorikeets, with hundreds now in care. We’re receiving calls about other camps going down, but we only have so many people, so many hours, and so much money to rehabilitate these suffering animals.

Many have asked what’s causing this, and the truth is: we don’t know. No one does. What we do know is that this syndrome has occurred over the past five years, and this year is by far the worst. It often follows heavy rainfall, and both Flying Foxes and Lorikeets share the same diet—pollen and fruit. We believe FFPS is not contagious to other animals, as it hasn’t transferred to other bats or birds in care for different reasons.

For weeks now, we’ve been working tirelessly. Our volunteers scour camps at night, picking up affected bats and their orphans—so many orphans. Volunteers are on the road for up to 12 hours a day (sometimes even longer), transporting affected bats and their babies to receive veterinary care. On-site, we triage patients, providing emergency care like subcutaneous fluids, eye lubricants, and glucose—anything we can do to give them a fighting chance and alleviate their suffering.

💔 It’s soul-destroying to witness so many animals in distress. This crisis is taking a toll on the mental health of our rescuers, transporters, hotline operators, vet staff, and even members of the public who encounter these suffering animals. It also affects the families of our rehabilitators, who sacrifice time with loved ones to save those they can. We’re exhausted, drained, and heartbroken. And it’s only getting worse. 🌧️

In the comments section of this post, I’ll share a video of a Black Flying Fox affected by FFPS. It’s confronting and may be upsetting to watch. The bat is struggling to breathe and unable to move, yet it remains aware of its surroundings—a truly horrifying sight. Please only view it if you feel prepared, but know that this is what our team faces every day.

We’re grateful that local councils are starting to put up signs around Flying Fox camps, warning of this wildlife emergency. We’re also deeply thankful for the generosity you’ve shown—through donations, sharing our posts, and offering words of comfort. But this isn’t stopping, and every Flying Fox or orphan we bring in requires months of intensive care.

✨ We’re asking, begging, for your help. Without your support, we cannot continue this work. Please donate so we can keep fighting for these animals and their chance at life. It’s not in our DNA to walk away from their suffering. With your help, we can continue to make a difference. ✨

Donations of $2 or more are tax-deductible:

Important: If you find a bat, do not touch it. Call a rescue expert immediately.

This is a friendly reminder to ensure you have ordered prescription medication for your pets. According to veterinary legislation, it's required for pets to have been seen by a veterinarian within the past six months to qualify for prescription medications. This regulation helps ensure that your pet's health is monitored regularly and that any medication prescribed is appropriate for their current condition.

As we approach the holiday season, please remember that emergency veterinary services can only provide prescription medication with a prior consultation. These emergency consultations can be costly, often around $220 or more, adding an unexpected financial burden during the holidays.

To avoid inconveniences or last-minute scrambles, I highly recommend you plan ahead. Calculate how much you'll need to cover the holiday period. Most general practice veterinary clinics will be closed from December 25th (Wednesday) through December 29th (Sunday), so it’s crucial to account for this closure when managing your pet's health needs. These steps will help ensure your pets stay happy and healthy throughout the holidays!
