RSPCA Illawarra Volunteer Branch

RSPCA Illawarra Volunteer Branch Volunteer Branches are the backbone of the RSPCA's work in regional NSW. Each branch is run exclusively by volunteers and plays a vital role in fundraising

The RSPCA NSW Illawarra Shelter is located in Unanderra. It provides care and shelter to abandoned and neglected animals, including cats, dogs, livestock, pocket pets and poultry. The shelter is the animal holding facility for both Shellharbour and Wollongong City Councils, housing stray cats, dogs and livestock. It is supported by an active and dedicated volunteer branch who help with fundraising and maintaining the gardens.

RSPCA NSW supports legislative intent of the new Puppy Farm Bill, but urges amendments for stronger breeding protections in NSW.

The Bill aims to strengthen the regulatory framework for dog breeding in NSW. It's stated intention is to regulate dog breeding, and the advertising of dogs for sale or other transfer and RSPCA NSW has always advocated for robust statutory protections for breeding animals in NSW.

The Bill, known as The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Amendment (Puppy Farm) Bill 2024, was introduced to the NSW Parliament on Thursday, October 24, 2024, and is scheduled for further debate during the current Parliamentary sitting. If passed, it will take effect in three stages between November 2024 and December 2035.

While the move to regulate breeding is a positive step, this Bill falls short of properly and effectively promoting the welfare of dogs and cats and, in some areas, fails to protect cats altogether. Legislative protections must extend also to cats to address the welfare risks associated with intensive breeding practices.

RSPCA NSW urges the NSW Government and all parliamentarians to consider further amendments that will strengthen protections and address the welfare needs of these animals.
