Current Strays


 We often have stray animals brought
 into the SPCA Centre, such as Birds,       Rabbits and Cats.
 
 
 FOUND

The SPCA works under the Animal Welfare Act 1999, which states in section 141 that the SPCA must take all reasonable steps to find the owner of the animal.
 
If an owner hasn't been found by the time the animal has been in our custody for 7 days we then have the right to either;
 
  • Sell the animal
  • Find a new home for the animal
  • Humanely euthanise the animal (this would only ever be done if for some reason the animal was not able to be re-homed)
 
We don't hold stray dogs. These are dealt with by your local council.
