in our care are dogs, cats, and rabbits, the shelter accepts all animals in need, including native animals, farm animals, birds, ferrets, and other domesticated animals.

This is truly special because little Vivien (aka Serena) has found her forever home! 🎉

Do you remember our beloved Jackie Chan? He was adopted by this incredible family almost a year ago. Well, his human parents came back to the shelter to find him a little sister! Now, Vivien hasn't just found a forever home—she's gained an incredible, experienced big brother to grow up with! 🥰

We're so thrilled to see Jackie Chan and Vivien starting their journey as siblings. This is what second chances are all about! ❤️

That little bit of comfort from your morning ritual is powerful. What if skipping just ONE coffee a month—a simple $5 monthly donation—could be the difference between an empty stomach and a full and happy one for a homeless animal?

At AAPS, we are caring for precious souls who rely on us every single day. They aren't asking for much, just a chance to feel safe and strong enough to find their purrfect furever home.

Your Monthly Swap is Their Lifeline:
Skip ONE Coffee ($5 Monthly) → A Can of Nourishing Food, Every Month.

Your Small, Consistent Change → An Animal's Security and Hope.

Your $5 monthly promise ensures a regular meal is always on their menu. It’s the easiest way to be a consistent hero! You get to keep your coffee routine, and they get to keep their hope.

Will you make the monthly swap and give a hungry belly the reliable meals they deserve?

It's heartbreaking to share that Tux and Baloo—this sweet, bonded pair—have spent 216 days in our care, waiting for their forever home! These affectionate 12-year-old DSH boys deserve to spend their golden years curled up on your couch.

🚸 Older Kids
🐶 No Dogs
🐱 No Cats
🏡 Indoor Only

They are ready to reward your kindness with a lifetime of gentle companionship and the special love only a bonded pair can offer. Will you end their long wait? 🙏

It's Wednesday Wishlist time, and our beloved cats and kittens are asking for a little extra help to feel safe, calm, and nurtured while they wait for their new families!

This week, our list is focused on providing stress relief, natural comfort, and essential care for our most vulnerable felines:

Cardboard Scratchers: Scratching is a natural, necessary, and stress-relieving behaviour for cats. These scratchers keep their claws healthy, provide mental enrichment, and are essential for a happy, balanced cat!

Kitten Snuggle Safe Heat Disks: For our tiniest residents, warmth is vital! These non-electric heat disks mimic the warmth of a mother or littermate, offering comfort and helping vulnerable kittens regulate their body temperature.

Feliway Spray: Feliway is a synthetic copy of a feline facial pheromone that helps cats feel secure and calm. We use this wonderful tool on bedding and in living spaces to reduce anxiety and make their stay less stressful.

Miracle Ni***es & Syringes: These specialised ni***es and feeding syringes are essential tools for our dedicated team to safely and lovingly hand-rear orphaned or abandoned newborn kittens who cannot feed on their own. They truly are "miracles" for fragile little lives.

Scales: Accurate digital scales are crucial for monitoring the growth and health of kittens and smaller animals. Even a few grams can make a critical difference in a tiny kitten's life!

Every thoughtful donation makes a huge difference in the daily well-being of our shelter residents, embodying the compassion and respect we strive to uphold for all living creatures.

How you can help:

Drop-off: Items can be delivered directly to the shelter in Keysborough, VIC, 3173.

About AAPS

AAPS is a community-based, not-for-profit registered Charity. We rely entirely upon volunteers and community support together with our Opportunity Shops, to provide essential financial backing for the Shelter as we do not receive any Government funding, at all.

We work very closely with ALL animal welfare organisations in our endeavour to provide protection, assistance, and welfare for all animals.

“Protecting animals, changing lives”.

We care for and nurture animals and aim to return as many as possible to their owners or find them new ‘fur-ever’ homes.
