‼️ WARNING: STRONG WINDS 💨💨
Destructive winds and rains are forecast today for NSW which are most likely to be felt in South-East Queensland.

These severe conditions can lead to our wildlife becoming displaced, sick, injured or orphaned.

HOW YOU CAN HELP 👇

🤚 Only approach animals if it is safe to do so.

🦘 Injured and sick wildlife can be brought directly to our Wacol Wildlife Hospital (if safe to do so).

☎️ Call our RSPCA Emergency Hotline on 1300 ANIMAL (1300 264 625) 7am to 7pm for advice, or your local wildlife group.

🚫 Avoid feeding or giving water as this can cause harm.

🐦 Birds (and possums) may be grounded. If they appear uninjured keep them safe, warm and dry in box with a towel/blanket.

🦇 Flying foxes may find themselves caught on powerlines or fences. If you find a bat in need to assistance, do not touch them call the RSPCA on 1300 ANIMAL, Bat Conservation and Rescue Qld or your nearest wildlife carer.

Patiently waiting for their forever families ❤️
Today, we're shining the light on our pets in foster care 🐱🐶🐦🐹

Foster Care can be a life-line, providing temporary homes to animals in need of a helping hand who are recovering from surgery or medical conditions, undergoing rehabilitation or even just spending time out of the shelter. Foster care offers them a safe haven to heal and prepare for their forever families 🥰

So, if you’re looking to adopt, why not consider our foster care friends today and give them the forever home they truly deserve 👉 rspcaqld.org.au 🏡❤️

A road safety reminder 🚗❗
We might be rugged up and staying nice and warm inside, but our wildlife are still out and about 🦘🐨🦔

Sadly, sometimes wildlife like koalas, kangaroos, reptiles, possums, birds and other animals are struck and killed or badly injured by motor vehicles. So, it’s important we all play our part to look out for our wildlife.

Here are some steps we can take to significantly reduce the odds of having an animal related crash, and to help wildlife should you find them in distress 👇

‼️ Be alert while driving and aware of where wildlife are located – be extra careful when driving at dusk and dawn as these are the times wildlife are most active.

🚗 Sadly, there may be times when you cannot avoid an animal when driving. When it’s safe to do so, stop, pull over and check your vehicle, as sometimes animals can get caught in car grills and engine bays.

☎️ Call RSPCA's Emergency Hotline on 1300 ANIMAL (264 625) 7am - 7pm, or your local wildlife rescue group for assistance with sick or injured animals in need of help.

🚑 Keep a wildlife rescue kit in the car. Small animals can be easily transported to a vet, if safe to do so.

🦘 Pouch checks can save lives – if you come across an injured animal, if they have a pouch please check for any young.

From squalor and pain, to safety and comfort 🐶💔
Maisie, a 3-year-old poodle cross, was living in horrific conditions - part of a tragic case of hoarding.

Part of a large-scale rescue of over 100 animals, Maisie was being kept for breeding.

You can help save precious lives like Maisie by making a tax-deductible donation today 👉 bit.ly/43HLMtm

The stench of Maisie’s living conditions was overwhelming. A layer of hardened dirt and faeces covered the floor. Diseases, infestations and infections were being passed from one animal to another.

Barely recognisable as a dog, Maisie had a severely matted coat. Her fur was so tangled she couldn’t move her legs. She also had infections and infestations. Rescuing her was an emergency.

Everyone at the shelter began preparing. The vet team started the huge task of seeing each animal on arrival and prioritising the most urgent cases.

The first step was removing Maisie’s filthy, overgrown coat, enabling her to move freely again, before her the rest of her treatment began.

Thanks to people like you, Maisie got the vet care she desperately needed fast. And now, many months later and fully recovered, lives a beautiful life with Karen who adopted her.

“She looked lost. This little dog is desperate for love,” says Karen, remembering her first time seeing Maisie.

Today, Maisie is happy, healthy and loved. It’s a total transformation, and that’s what your incredibly kind gift has the power to do ❤️

Animals in pain need urgent treatment. Will you help provide emergency vet care for an animal like Maisie so they can recover and start a new life, surrounded by the love they deserve?

Imagine being dumped and completely abandoned like your life didn't matter 💔

That was the case for these two little kittens.

Abandoned by their owner, a caring member of the public found them and brought them into the RSPCA for help.

Sadly, kittens Tyler and Reece aren’t the only unwanted animals that end up at the RSPCA. In fact, one of the top reasons animals are surrendered into our care is simply due to them being unwanted.

We believe every animal should have a loving home for life. With RSPCA's Operation Wanted we can prevent abandonment by ensuring every pet is wanted.

Do your part, desex your pet today to prevent unplanned pregnancies with 20% off cat and dog desexing at participating vets.

📸 Caption this!
What an expression baby Tawny Frogmouth Alfred has 🤣

🦉 Alfred came into our RSPCA Wildlife Hospital weighing just 160 grams - so small and fragile. Alone and vulnerable, he needed urgent care to survive.

Our Wildlife Team gently placed Alfred into a warm humidicrib, a special device that mimics the comfort and cover of a nest. He was lovingly hand-fed every few hours with a nutritious blend of insect powder, rodent protein, and a variety of bugs like wood cockroaches and soldier fly larvae (a real treat for a growing bird!).

As Alfred grew stronger, his carers helped him practise perching and encouraged him to snap at food, preparing him for the wild. Once his fluffy baby feathers were replaced by sleek adult plumage, Alfred graduated to an aviary, where he strengthened his flight muscles and sharpened his hunting instincts. And soon Alfred will be ready to be released back to the wild ❤️

🚑 Our RSPCA teams are rescuing 27,000 animals, just like Alfred, every year in Queensland. To continue to save lives, we need to improve our capacity to care.

You can help protect the future of wildlife by helping build a Centre that can support proactive wildlife care through education, training and research, as well as emergency care. Find out more 👉 bit.ly/4dVyXQS

Trapped and traumatised… Again 🐋
Today, a humpback whale became entangled off Kirra Beach on the Gold Coast. While thankfully it has been freed, the physical and psychological toll of such an ordeal is impossible to measure.

Every year, thousands of humpback whales migrate along our coast, and every year they face the deadly risk of entanglement in Queensland’s outdated shark nets.

It’s time for Queensland to follow the science. Shark nets must be removed during whale migration season at a minimum, and ultimately replaced with non-lethal technologies that protect both people and all marine wildlife.

Let’s be smarter. Let’s be kinder. Let’s modernise shark control.

Say hello to Penny 👋
At 11-years-old she may be a golden oldie, but don't let that fool you! Penny is packed full of personality and is super active 😺❤️

Arriving into our care as a stray very underweight and matted, Penny has bounced back beautifully - almost unrecognisable to the cat she once was. Now she spends her days focused on two things: playtime and food (and lots of it)! 🫶🤗

Penny has plenty of favourite toys, and also insists on a play session every evening with her favourite humans before bed. And will absolutely let you know if you're forgotten to play with her! 🥰😺

With a bottomless stomach and an even bigger heart, Penny is ready to be spoiled and adored ❤️

Could you give this spirited golden oldie the purrfect retirement home she's been searching for? See her profile online 👉 rspcaqld.org.au/adopt/search/animaldetails?AnimalId=1002819 and begin your honourable tail today! 🏡

Say hello to Chilli 👋
She may be built like a tank, but 4-year-old Chilli is surprisingly light on her feet and as graceful as a ballerina 🩰

Chilli is a toy enthusiast - she'll proudly introduce you to every single one of them. Whether it's squeaky, fluffy, or bouncy, she treasures her toys 🧸❤️

Got a big yard or a park nearby? She lives for her walks and a good game of fetch, and is always ready to go! ⚽🐶

Chilli is happiest when she's the centre of your world. Whether you're out for a walk or sitting, she'll be right by your side, toy in tow 🥰

With a lot of love to give, Chilli is after a family who will be home with her more often than not (at least while she settles in) and a home where she can be the only star 🌟 as she can get a bit worried around other doggos ❤️

If you're ready to fall in love with Chilli and fill you life with love, cuddles, laughter and an impressive toy collection, see her profile online 👉 rspcaqld.org.au/adopt/search/animaldetails?AnimalId=923390 and start your honourable tail today! 🏡
