Thanks to Diane for the update on Blue 😊
Blue has settled in well. Looks like he has found a lovely spot to soak up the sunshine. 😊
Welcome to Peninsula Animal Aid's official page. Peninsula Animal Aid (PAA) has been taking in stray and abandoned animals since 1971.
We are a not for profit organisation and registered Charity run entirely by unpaid volunteers. We work tirelessly to make sure our animals can find loving new families that will continue to care for them. Address: 313 Duffield Road Clontarf Qld 4019 (Redcliffe Peninsula). Our new page promotes the welfare of our animals and to talk with our supporters and the community we live and work in
. For those unfamiliar with the way things work now and have always worked in regards to euthanasia:
Peninsula Animal Aid, in very rare circumstances has had cats and dogs euthanised. If a cat or dog has a serious health problem or extreme behavioural issues it may be euthanised. This is a very rare occurrence. This has been the policy of Peninsula Animal Aid since its very origin.
Thanks to Diane for the update on Blue 😊
Blue has settled in well. Looks like he has found a lovely spot to soak up the sunshine. 😊
A huge thank you to "Jazmyn Blue" - a group of local people who made a very generous donation to Peninsula Animal Aid to assist care for the animals. They collected 25 dog blankets, 6 cat beds, 9kg of chew treats, 24 toys, 148 can of dog food, 62kgs of dog biscuits, 84 packets of cat food and 4kg of cat biscuits. Below is a picture of the food collected and of lovely Jazmyn Blue sitting with the food . 😀
Thank you so much Jazmyn Blue. ❤
If anyone is interested in donating items, our wish list can be found on our website https://peninsulaanimalaid.com.au/wish-list.html ❤

Meet stunning Trixie - our August star in PAA's 2024 Calendar. ❤
Trixie - Domestic Short Hair - Born 25 April 2021
Hi everyone. Madame Beatrice here (Trixie to my friends).
I remember the first time I met my humans like it was yesterday. We made an instant connection. I won them over with my irresistible cuddles and cuteness. I mean, just look at me. I’m fabulous. Of course, I adopted them.
My home was unfamiliar at first and I didn’t want any attention, but I soon warmed up and now my humans can’t catch a break!
At first it was just me, but then my new annoying fur brother came into my home. He’s a chaos causer and is obsessed with the random stuff. Unlike me, since I have expensive tastes!
Thank you to Lyndal Carmichael Photography for another beautiful photo. 🙂
Thank you to Jenn for the lovely update on Lady, and her big sister Matilda, who both came from PAA.
Here is a picture of Lady sunbathing on the deck. She is such a quirky and funny dog. Of course, Matilda had to have a picture too. They are both enjoying a play in a ball pit.
You may remember Lady. Earlier in 2023 she was a sick little puppy who needed major surgery, and everything that went with it. Many of you assisted with her very costly expenses - thank you so much. She is now living the life with her wonderful family.
Lady and Matilda are certainly lucky girls. ❤

Thank you to Lynn and Ian for the lovely update on Charlie. ❤
Charlie found his forever home with Lynn and Ian in September 2022. Their previous, much-loved dog had just passed away at the age of 14 years. Charlie had just arrived at Peninsula Animal Aid, after being on death row at Warwick Pound. After meeting each other there was no doubt that Lynn, Ian and Charlie were meant to be a family.
Shortly after being adopted, an Animal Instincts Trainer observed Charlie, and noticed how clever he was. As a result of this, Charlie was assessed, and passed each aspect of the assessment. He is now a qualified Assistance Dog.
Well done Charlie – we knew you were a star! 🌟❤

Many thanks to Mark for sending a Happily Ever After for handsome Swayze. ❤
Swayze has taken over but we love him so very much 😍. When we go for walks and are nearly home, we ask him if he's home and he looks back at us, wags his tail like a window wiper and shakes his bum and then races to the front door!
He's very much part of our family and we are so lucky to have him ❣️
Many thanks to Sher, Lauren and Ryan for the lovely happily ever after on Tank. ❤
Hello everyone and the biggest thank you that we have Tank in our lives. When anyone asks we don't say we have a 'Cattle Dog' we say we have a 'Cuddle Dog' !!! :-))) He is the most loving boy and he LOVES to ride on the skateboard with the kids down the driveway and play soccer in the yard including pushing the ball along with his nose to score a goal. We also took him for a visit to see elderly grandparents and Tank was the most gentle companion who just lay at their feet and didn't leave their side. They have phoned me twice since wanting to know when he's coming back. Good job Tank! Thanks again, we can't believe how lucky we are! ❤❤
Kind regards Sher, Lauren & Ryan.
Thank you to Ellie for sending Betty's happily every after❤️
We want to say thank you so much to everyone at PAA for our beautiful Betty. She is settling in well 🥰 she is so cuddly and sweet. Betty is in love with her big brother Buddy Sunshine. They are getting along well. These are so cute too. I catch them cuddling sometimes hah. Betty is getting more and more comfortable going on walks with buddy and to the beach. She loves walking along the beach with us and running with Buddy 😍
She is the sweetest 💕❤️💕
Meet beautiful Clover - Miss July in PAA's 2024 calendar. ❤
Clover - Irish Wolfhound X - Born 29 July 2019
Hello friends! My name is Clover and I’m an Irish Wolfhound X.
Once upon a time, I was kept as a guard dog and I lived outside. When my mummy first adopted me I was scared most of the time, but with lots of love and cuddles I’m getting bolder everyday. I still have my big guard dog bark, but really I’m a big softie. I love going for drives with my family and meeting new friends at the dog beach.
My very favourite thing is curling up on the couch with my Mum and my human brother. Thank you for helping me find my forever family, PAA! ❤
Many thanks to Charlotte Reeves Photography for the beautiful photo.
Thank you so much Margate Family OP SHOP. Your support is a big help. 😊🐾

Thank you to Jay for the lovely happily-ever-after on beautiful Fluffy.
We adopted Fluffy a few weeks ago, she was extremely timid and I feared she wouldn't settle. So happy to tell you that after only three days, she was in love with her new home and us. She is an absolute delight and quite a character. She is the most contented little cat I've ever had and she never stops purring. ❤
She loves to be patted and stroked and sit near me on the lounge, but at this stage picking her up is not on!! I feel sure that will change. She is so funny too and we can't help laughing at her. 😀
Thank you PAA for all you did in caring for and looking after Fluffy while she was with you, she is an absolute delight. ❤
Thank you to Diane for the happily-ever-after after on Cutie. 😊
Here are some photos of Cutie known as Blue . He has settled down pretty well loves a lot of attention. He is getting lots of love ❤️
Margate Family OP SHOP has started a monthly fundraiser. Many thanks to the wonderful team at Margate Family Op Shop. ❤️

"The first one is Peninsula Animal Aid - our fantastic local animal shelter. Simply by shopping in our store this month you will be helping us raise money for all their furry friends in need.. Tell all your friends!!! "

Thank you to Leonie for sending this great adoption story on Jack. ❤️
I adopted and renamed this lovely boy to Jack in late January. He's been brilliant from day one.
After 23 years on the Redcliffe peninsula, in early May I relocated back to my home state of Victoria. Jack and I enjoyed a terrific 2 weeks slow road trip south. He brings me joy and love. ❤️
Thank you to Lucy for sending Barnacle's happily-ever-after.

Many thanks to Mark and Jan for the lovely "happily ever after" on Baloo. Judging from the smiles on Mark and Jan's faces, Baloo has already stolen their hearts. 😀
We are loving being able to look after Baloo and spoil him. Just wanted to share a couple of photos to show Baloo has settled in. He is even sleeping on the foot of our bed at night! ❤
Thank you to everyone who has very kindly donated to our callout for help – your support has been absolutely wonderful. ❤ We have received approx $30,000 of our $150,000 goal.
If you would like to donate please visit https://peninsulaanimalaid.com.au/paa/donate/
The current housing and cost of living crises have affected adoptions and intakes at PAA, and the donations people have been able to afford. This is understandable but has unfortunately had an adverse effect at PAA. We see on a daily basis the heartbreaking effect this is having within our community. With more people needing to surrender their animals, our expenses are increasing considerably, as are our day-to-day expenses.
The high level of care provided to the animals at PAA is essential. To be able to continue this care, we need your help to raise $150,000. As everyone at PAA is an unpaid volunteer, all funds received go to the care and rehoming of the animals.
We would be very grateful for any support you may be able to give so that we can continue our valuable work. Unfortunately, PAA cannot maintain these costs alone. All donations over $2 are tax-deductible. Your contribution, no matter the amount, makes a valuable difference to these little ones needing our care.
