To our local community affected by flooding, our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

On Friday our RSPCA team prepped some much-needed animal supplies, bound for Charleville by road to support the township of Thargomindah.

Our Team packed 100+ pet carriers, 60+ wire crates, a pallet each of dog and cat food, food for chickens, puppies, macropods, birds and pet treats. We also have pet essentials like bowls, leads, collars, beds, blankets and toys on board to help people and their pets.

ℹ️ Lost and stranded livestock and pets can be a familiar sight during and after a natural disaster. What to do if you find displaced, sick or injured animals 👇
🐾 Report lost livestock or pets to your local council.
☎️ If the owner of the livestock is not known and National Livestock Identification System (NLIS) tags are visible on cattle, contact us by calling 13 25 23 as the owner can be traced via the NLIS database.
❗ Do not approach, crowd around, or try to catch lost livestock – they may be frightened and disoriented.
👩‍⚕️ For sick or injured animals or livestock, contact your nearest vet.

Meet Monty 👋
Not quite 1-year-old Monty arrived in our care as a stray without a microchip, and despite best efforts to locate his family he was never collected by his owners 😢

Even though he's had a tough start to life, Monty spirits remain high - he is the very definition of a happy chappy! And since arriving at RSPCA he has captured the hearts of our Team with his sweet personality, infectious doggy smile and zest for life 🐶❤️

Monty's dream home is a loving family who can involve him in their daily life. He would love big back yard with lots of toys to play with! He particularly loves enrichment toys like KONGS, puzzles and ice blocks to keep him happy and busy throughout the day.

This handsome dude loves the company of other dogs and is keen for a fur sibling, so if you have another pooch at home, be sure to bring them in for a meet and greet!🥰🐾

Could you give Monty his forever home this World Stray Animal Day? See his profile 👉 rspcaqld.org.au/adopt/search/animaldetails?AnimalId=996872 and begin your Tails of Honour today! 🏡

📢 Protect racing animals by having your say!
The Queensland Government’s 2025 Racing Review is your chance to ask for better protections for racing animals.

Significant animal welfare issues must be addressed when animals are used in racing. Too many racehorses and greyhounds face challenges such as catastrophic injuries, overbreeding, and limited rehoming opportunities after racing.

RSPCA Queensland is calling for stronger breeding controls, full-life tracking, improved rehoming efforts, and an end to painful racing practices.

😶 There’s a possum in the roof! What should I do? 🤔
It’s late at night and all is quiet… suddenly there’s a scampering coming from above and you know a possum’s taken up residence in your roof!

It’s a common occurrence in the Australian suburbs, so it makes sense that it’s one of our top calls for help.

If a possum keeps you up at night, it might be time to find them a new home. You can set up a possum box outside on a nearby tree and you can also possum proof your roof (once they have left the building for the day) to deter future occupants.

✨🎉 One last lap of memories 🎉✨
2025 marks the last ever RSPCA Million Paws Walk, so we're celebrating 30 incredible years of walkies and wagging tails.

Share your RSPCA Million Paws Walk memories in the comments!

It all began in 1994 when the very first Million Paws Walk took place at New Farm Park in Brisbane, drawing 500 participants and their pooches, all dedicated to making a difference for animals in need. The event was a roaring success, sparking its expansion not just across the state but nationwide, and becoming a much-loved tradition for both 2-legged and 4-legged friends!

This year, for the FINAL EVER Million Paws Walk, we hold our dog bowls up in toast, celebrating more than 750,000 animal lovers and 1.6 million furry paws across the country who have walked with us over the past 3 decades, raising an amazing $17 million for animals in need 🎉🎉

Thanks 'a million' for being a part of our history! ❤️

‼️ Urgent: Our Wildlife is in Crisis – they need you NOW!
The devastating cyclone in SEQ has left vulnerable wildlife facing a critical challenge. In the wake of the recent cyclone and devastating rains, animals are suffering — many orphaned, injured, and scared 💔

The cyclone has passed, but the damage to wildlife is beginning to be seen. This is a heartbreaking situation and they can’t survive without your help.

Seabirds found across inland urban areas, far from their natural habitats, weakened by the harsh conditions. They are battling exhaustion, injury and shock.

Koalas, normally resilient creatures, are coming in weak, drenched and exhausted.

Tiny, orphaned possums, birds and other young animals have been left to fend for themselves in the aftermath.

These babies are terrified, hungry and in desperate need of care. We urgently need your help.

With your kind support, you can provide these precious animals with the medical care and rehabilitation they so desperately need. Your donation will ensure that orphaned babies receive the proper care, nourishment and nurturing they need to survive.

Every minute counts, and these animals need you more than ever. Your donation will directly provide the life-saving resources they need to survive and heal.

❤️ Please donate now. Together, we can help our precious wildlife and make a difference in this tough time 👉 bit.ly/4hzUNK1

Team bonding day ends with a happy adoption 🐶❤️
Aussie Broadband recently joined us for an RSPCA Corporate Experience Day – the only time where team building and animal care go hand in paw 🤚🐾

It was a day filled with hands-on activities enriching animals, including making toys, behind the scenes tours, learning about animal welfare and the day-to-day tasks of our Brisbane Animal Care Centre. And of course, lots and lots of puppy cuddles!

And best of all, little Maple made such an impact that she found her forever home 🥰 Not too long after her experience with us, one of Aussie Broadband’s team members returned with her family to introduce Maple, where it was clear they all fell in love. And it was no surprise when the meet and greet ended with Maple being made an official member of their family 🐶❤️

If you’re looking for team building activities that will fill hearts and get tails wagging, find out more about our Corporate Experience Days at 👉 rspcaqld.org.au/volunteer/corporate-volunteering, or to organise a puppy cuddle.. we mean secure your spot, email our Team at [email protected]!
