gest your own animals are up to date with vaccinations and preferably desexed. We do not know the vaccination status of most of the animals at the pound. There are pledge pages that help with the cost of transport and the admin who run the pages do a fabulous job at helping getting animals all over Australia, so getting an animal anywhere is not an issue. If you would like to donate and require the link to these pages or groups to assist please PM us. The council only release the animals to rescue groups. Years ago the public were permitted to go to the pound and take an animal to give it a home. The problem they found is that most of the animals did not get desexed and months later were contributing to the masses of unwanted animals of the region. They started only releasing the animals to rescue groups to ensure they will be desexed, vaccinated etc to try and stop the cycle. Each animal is listed individually with their info. We can only report what information we have been given by the AMC staff. Sometimes we do not know if they are good with other animals, if they jump fences, are good with kids etc - but if we do know we will put it in the animals notes on the page. If you have any questions please message us and we will try and help where we can. Please remember we are volunteers and have jobs, kids, lives outside of our attempt to help here.

This little boy is a touch shy, he loves attention once he's warmed up to someone and is very active cat.

He would love a home where his family have lots of time to spend playing with him.
