Animal Welfare League NSW - Western Suburbs Branch

There are various Animal Welfare League NSW branches located across NSW. These branches are managed and operated by dedicated volunteers.

The purpose of our branches is to better position our organisation to assist companion animals in localised areas. Animal Welfare League NSW - Western Suburbs is a branch of Animal Welfare League NSW. We are a small group of volunteers dedicated to helping those in the community that require a hand from time to time with their pets, primarily assisting pensioners and low income earners to desex th

eir cats and dogs. We also endeavour to help find new homes for abandoned animals in order to give them a second chance. Our branch does not have a shelter or an office. Our cats and dogs for adoption are in homes with foster carers. AWL NSW volunteer branches offer the following services:
- Caring for surrendered animals
- Adopting dogs, cats, puppies and kittens
- Subsidised Desexing Programs for financially disadvantaged people to have their animals desexed
- Fundraising and events
- Building relationships with local Council and community groups to assist with animal welfare issues in the region
As AWL NSW branches are run by volunteers and are always in need of new faces to join their dedicated teams. There are many opportunities available to help animals at your local branch, some of which include:
Donations: Our branch needs pet food donations in order to survive and continue our work with local animals. Contact us to make a donation, or participate in one of our fundraising events. Email [email protected]
Events: Our Branch regularly participate in events to help raise money for animals in our care. This may be anything from a BBQ at Bunnings to a stall at a local fair. Events are a great way to be involved with our branch. Fundraising: You can raise money for your local branch by initiating your own fundraising activities. Coin drives at your school and placing donation tins at your place of work are great ways you can raise money to help animals. Foster care: If you have space at your place for an animal awaiting a home you may be able to foster through our branch. Fostering is a great hands-on experience which gives you the opportunity to see first-hand the difference you’re making. Please email [email protected] for an application. Animal transportation: Sometimes animals in branch care need to travel for appointments and their foster parents or other branch members may not be available to do it. If you have reliable transportation and would like to “help when you can” you can offer your animal transportation services. Photography: Our branch is involved in rehoming animals and always need good photography to showcase our animals in the best light. If you have a knack for photography and a love of animals please email [email protected] if you can help out.

Cuteness overload 😍

Sad guy Cookie Monster is looking for a foster home 💞

Don’t be fooled by his eternally heartbroken expression—this big-cheeked beauty is nothing but sweet and affectionate. He’s the ultimate cuddle buddy who loves attention, and let’s just say, food is his love language. Those gigantic cheeks? Perfect for storing all the treats he’s hoping you’ll spoil him with. 🍪🐾

Cookie Monster needs a cozy place to recover from entropion and dental surgery, and he’s looking for a kind foster carer to help him through. 💙

To foster this special guy, you’ll need:
- A spare room for him to chill in
- Your own car and a driver's license
- To live within 70 minutes of Kemps Creek

You can sign up to foster here: https://bit.ly/awlnswcatfoster-kemps-creek or feel free to contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions.

Rabbit foster carers needed! 🐇 💕

Our Kemps Creek (Sydney) shelter has a HUGE surrender waitlist for rabbits (including adorable babies!), but we can only help them if we have foster carers to temporarily care for them. Fostering involves providing a temporary, loving home for these bunnies until they are ready to find their forever families. We are calling upon rabbit lovers in our community to help out and sign up to foster with us 📣

Our bunnies are looking for homes where they can be kept in a separate space, away from things like loose wires and plants that they shouldn't be eating.

Rabbits will need 24/7 access to hay to munch on as well as delicious pellets to eat every few days. To help keep our bunnies safe, they'll need to be kept separate to any existing dogs or cats at home 🐾

These furry vegetarians love their fruit! They would like fresh fruit and veggies given as a treat a few times a week. 🍏🥕

We'll provide flea/lice prevention and cover any vet work at our Kemps Creek vet clinic. You'll just need your own car and drivers license, ability to purchase some supplies and be ready to foster NOW.

Please sign up to if you're ready to hop into the most adorable fostering experience of your life! 💌🐾

Sign up at https://bit.ly/pocketpetfostersignupkempscreek or email [email protected] for more info.

Exciting news!!
Our branch now has a fundraising page.
We thought it would be a great idea to have another page dedicated to our fundraising events, auctions, and very soon, the sale of personalised pet products and treats.
We would love for you to like and follow us.

FREE ENGRAVED DOG TAGS FOR BLACKTOWN CITY COUNCIL RESIDENTS

We want to help more lost dogs return home WITHOUT coming to council shelters. Blacktown Animal Rehoming Centre is one of the highest-intake shelters in NSW, and every day they receive many lost dogs without up-to-date microchips or tags.

So, we are giving away 1000 FREE engraved pet tags to dog owners who live in the Blacktown City Council area. All you need is a microchipped dog with up-to-date microchip details. Limit of 3 tags per household.

Not sure if your dog is microchipped? Bring your dog to BARC (20 Owen Street, Glendenning 9am - 3pm weekdays), and the staff will scan the dog for a microchip and check if the details are up-to-date. If not, the staff can assist you in updating it, at no cost. If the dog isn't microchipped, they can microchip them for free for Blacktown City Council residents (limit of 2 free microchips per resident).

Do you have the microchip number already and want to verify if it's up-to-date? Email BARC at [email protected] with the microchip number, your full name, address and phone number or visit their facility in Glendenning with your pet.

If you are a resident who lives in Blacktown City Council and have already confirmed that the microchip is up-to-date (including your name, phone number, and current address), get your free engraved pet tag here -> https://bit.ly/free-engraved-dog-tags

This is a www.findmyowner.com.au initiative, proudly supported by the NSW Government.

And the winner of our dog raffle is!!

Kath and Kim have still had no adoption interest. These two lovely bonded girls are absolutely adorable. If you’re after a bonded pair of beautiful natured cats, Kath and Kim are for you. Can you be the one to give them a loving home before Christmas? 😻💕

Two peas in a pod and a gorgeous bonded pair. That is the only way to introduce you to Kath & Kim. Abandoned separately as very young kittens, Kath and Kim have formed a unbreakable friendship. They love to play and explore together and are never far apart. They share food bowls and litter trays and happily steal toys from each other. When they have worn themselves out at the end of the day, they will even share their carer's lap. Their carer says they bring toys to us when they want to play, sometimes leave a little stuffed toy on the bed in the night. Kath and Kim are looking for a forever home together where they will get the love they deserve. They would make wonderful friends for gentle children to bond with & grow. Could that be your family? They have been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated x 2, flea and worm treated and with their bags packed, they are ready to move house immediately. Kath & Kim are in foster care in western Sydney. AWL NSW RON: R251000222.

If you would like to enquire to adopt this lovely girl, please message our page or email [email protected]. AWL NSW Rehoming Organisation Number: R251000222.

Little Tiny came to us the day he was born as his mother abandoned him. He was very underweight for a newborn at only 70g. He was put with a surrogate mum who had 5 four day old kittens herself. She accepted him immediately and he has been making steady progress since. At only 300g he’s still underweight for his age of 5 weeks but he is eating solids now so should gain weight quickly. He’s such a little fighter ❤️ ❤️
