- To build an animal refuge for the Tableland area
of North Queensland, to take in neglected, abandoned, sick and
legacy animals to rehabilitate and rehouse them. 20 acres of land,
fully fenced will provide homes for dogs, cats, horses, donkeys
and sheep. Any practical help or advcie will be appreciated.
- Education programs in schools and for the general
public in the care of and responsibility for domestic and farm
animals.
- To lobby councils to enforce desexing of all
domestic animals except for registered breeders.
All donations of goods, services or money are welcome.
We depend on the profits of these two businesses and we rely heavily
on the generosity of the public. If you would care to help, you
can make a donation and/or become a volunteer. Please contact us.
