RSPCA WA

RSPCA WA We are WA’s leading animal welfare charity organisation, preventing cruelty and promoting kindness.

When animals are let down by their owners, left helpless, traumatised and alone, they rely on RSPCA WA to step in and give them a second chance at life, love and happiness. Since 1892, RSPCA WA has worked tirelessly to prevent animal cruelty. We have rescued, rehabilitated and rehomed animals of many kinds and given them a second chance. We have educated the community and lobbied the Government to

promote animal welfare and prevent cruelty. Our Mission:
Lead the improvement of animal welfare in WA through prevention and intervention programs, advocacy, and education. We do this through:
🐾 Promoting and enforcing animal welfare legislation and driving legislative change
🐾 Educating and influencing the community
🐾 Achieving organisational excellence and delivering best practice animal care. At RSPCA WA we are dedicated to improving the treatment of animals because we believe it strengthens our society, enhances our lives and contributes to a better world. We have made great strides towards our vision, but there is still a long way to go. RSPCA WA would simply not exist without individuals and organisations who share our vision. We rely on the generosity of animal lovers to contribute around $9 million each year, the majority of what it costs to carry out our animal protection work. In order to overcome the challenges of increasing demand, rising costs and a vast geographical service area, it is critical that RSPCA WA continue to grow its supporter base. Through personal donations and gifts, and corporate fundraising initiatives, as well as a calendar of events, we will work to connect with people who want to protect and save Western Australia’s most vulnerable animals.

While fireworks are a fun for many of us, they can be a very different experience for our pets and animals. The sudden flashes and loud bangs can be terrifying, often causing anxiety, panic, and unpredictable behaviour in pets. 🎆

Taking a few simple steps ahead of time can help your animals feel safer and reduce the risk of them hurting themselves or escaping in fear.

To help your pets feel safe during New Year’s fireworks, remember to:

🐾 Take your dog on a long walk and feed them later than usual
🐾 Don't leave your pets at home alone
🐾 Close the curtains and help hide the noise by putting on some music or leaving the TV on
🐾 Give them a safe, comfy corner where they can hide
🐾 Make sure your pet’s microchip details are up to date in case they go missing, so you can be reunited

For animals such as horses, remove any sharp objects from their surroundings and cover windows or open areas where fireworks may be visible.

Always ensure every animal has access to plenty of food and fresh water.

A calm environment and a little preparation can go a long way in keeping all animals safe and settled this New Year. 🐾✨

PS we are open today for appointments ONLY and closed January 1st and 2nd.

Morley is waiting for her forever home... 🥹💙
Could that home be yours?

Morley is a gentle, affectionate girl who has come such a long way. When we first met her, she was underweight and unwell, having gone without proper care for far too long (see second picture).

Thanks to dedicated care and loving foster families, Morley has blossomed into a sweet, happy, and confident dog.

Morley loves being close to her people and will often follow them around the house just to keep them company. Her ideal day includes sunny naps, daily walks, belly rubs, and playtime with friendly dogs—simple joys she now embraces. ✨🐾

Morley is done waiting. She’s a loving, loyal girl ready to share her heart with the right family. Her adoption profile link is in the comments👇. If you can’t adopt, please leave a ❤️ and share her story to help this beautiful girl find the home she’s been waiting for.

Her adoption fee is currently reduced until the new year as our shelter is at full capacity.

💙 Please note: Although her adoption fee has been reduced, our rigorous adoption process is still in place. We make sure every animal is matched with a home that meets their needs.

WARNING: This adoption update will melt your heart! 🥰

You may remember Buddy from around a year ago — he arrived in our care at just one month old, unsure of what his future would hold. With his cute little face and floppy ears, it didn’t take long for him to steal hearts… and shortly after, he found the home of his dreams. 💙

We’ve just received another update from his family, and we knew you’d love to see his smiley face again. 😍

"Now 14 months old, growing at an alarming rate. His training is going great; he's a big boy now and he can't wait to see more of the world every day.

It's been a year since we've adopted him and we're so happy to be able to love him senseless and for him to love us back!"

Stories like Buddy’s aren’t just heartwarming — they’re why we do what we do. Every animal deserves a loving home where love is both given and received. ✨🐾

Santa Paws came to visit last night! 🎅🐾

Animals who were once abandoned, abused or neglected finally got to feel the joy of Christmas — and every single one was on the nice list (of course).

Just look at those sweet faces, full of Christmas spirit!🎄❤️

With 410 animals still in our care, our Christmas wish is simple: loving homes for every animal ready for adoption.

A huge thank you to our nine dedicated staff and 20 incredible volunteers who are giving up their Christmas Day to care for animals, serve meals, hand out presents and make sure every animal receives plenty of pats and attention.

And thank you to everyone who donated food, toys and funds this festive season — your generosity truly changes lives. 💚

The festive season is heating up, with soaring temperatures expected across WA. 🎄🔥

While we’re busy celebrating, don’t forget that our animals need extra care in extreme heat too.

Here are our top tips to keep pets safe and cool this Christmas:
☀️ Provide plenty of shade — or bring pets inside where it’s cooler
☀️ Make sure there are multiple bowls of fresh, cool water available
☀️ Never tie dogs up and leave them unsupervised
☀️ Help small pets like rabbits, guinea pigs and rats stay cool with frozen water bottles
☀️ Leave your dog at home — dogs can die in hot cars, even during a quick festive errand

If you see a dog in a hot car, note the vehicle’s registration and location and report it immediately to the RSPCA Cruelty Hotline on 1300 278 358 (1300 CRUELTY) or call WA Police on 131 444.

Let’s keep Christmas safe for everyone — paws included. 🐾🎅

Want your Christmas gift to mean a little more this year? Give one to an animal in care who needs it most. 😇

A simple toy or treat can bring comfort and pure joy to animals spending the festive season in our care, reminding them they are loved while they wait for their forever homes. Many are recovering from abuse or neglect and need a little extra comfort during this time. 😭

Your generosity helps animals like Jack, pictured below, feel the joy of Christmas. 🤗🎄

Drop by the RSPCA WA Animal Care Centre located at 108 Malaga Drive, Malaga.

This Christmas looks much brighter for Nutloaf, now right where she belongs with her family. 🥲🎄

You might remember her from our recent post. She came in at Christmas last year, when she was one of over 100 dogs rescued from a puppy farm on Christmas Eve. Back then, she was terrified—gentle hands made her tremble, and fear shaped every moment of her day. 💔

Since being adopted earlier this year, Nutloaf has blossomed with time, patience, and the guidance of her Border Collie sister, Olive. 🐾

We’re THRILLED to share a heartwarming update from her new family.

“Nutloaf is the life of the party at the local dog park, one of her favourite places. She loves the beach, is very cheeky, and makes sure everyone is awake each morning with her howls so she doesn’t miss her snack. She loves all other dogs, all humans, and pretty much any food she can find.

Our favourite moment is seeing her big smile every day and knowing she is now safe and loving life. Watching her play with Olive, and seeing Olive guide her through new experiences, are moments we’ll always treasure.” ✨

This Christmas, Nutloaf has her very own stocking for Santa Paws to fill with treats and toys. She’s living a life that a year ago seemed almost impossible. 🎄

It’s all thanks to the generous support of people like you that Nutloaf got her second chance. Sadly, many animals are still waiting for their forever home. You can help be their Christmas miracle. Become a Guardian Angel today and click the 🔗 in the comments to donate. ❤️🎁

💔 Our shelter is at capacity this Christmas 💔

It’s always heartbreaking when our shelter is full, but even more so at Christmas, when every animal deserves to wake up to gentle pats, familiar faces and a day filled with love.

Our biggest wish this holiday season is to see as many animals as possible head home for the holidays. To help make that happen, we’re offering reduced adoption fees for the next two weeks.

We want to be clear: we don’t encourage pets as Christmas presents. But if welcoming an animal into your family is something you’ve been thoughtfully considering, this could be the perfect time. Pets are a lifelong commitment and deserve careful consideration before taking that step.

Reduced adoption fees:
🐶 Dogs – $100
🐱 Cats – $50
🐾 Puppies – $200
🐾 Kittens – $100
🐹 Pocket pets – $20
🐴 Horses – $100
🐦 Birds – Fee free

If your family has been hoping to add a furry or feathered friend, please consider visiting the beautiful animals patiently waiting at our Malaga Care Centre. Their Christmas miracle could start with you. 🩵

Today on International Volunteer Day we wanted to say an extra special thank you to the volunteers who dedicate hours and hours each year keeping the shelter running.

When people think about volunteering at RSPCA WA, they may think about playing with puppies and kittens and giving lots of cuddles and treats, but the reality is that it's hard work. It's cleaning kennels and cat condos, it's picking up poo, it's doing piles and piles of laundry, it's standing at events and helping do paperwork. Of course, there are lots of animal snuggles too, but it's a big job, and we're so lucky to have some of the most dedicated people helping us every single day.

On behalf of the animals and the people at RSPCA WA, thank you. We truly couldn't do it without you. 🩵

Heartbreakingly, Christmas is one of the busiest times of year at RSPCA WA.

More animals are arriving at the shelter every day. Homeless, in what should be a time for fun and family. 💔

It’s only with your support that we can ensure the animals in our care have access to the comforts every animal should, plus something extra special for Christmas Day.

Will you be a guardian Angel and give an extra special gift to the animals in our care? Donate today. ❤️

Meet Nutloaf, one of the 100+ dogs seized from a property last Christmas. Her tale is one you won't want to miss. 👇

Nutloaf’s life used to be nothing but fear. She was rescued just before Christmas — one of more than 100 dogs found crammed into filthy cages at a backyard puppy farm. She’d never felt a soft bed, never known a gentle hand, never even been allowed to live like a real dog. All that she knew was concrete floors, hot sand, and the ever-present scent of faeces.

When she arrived at RSPCA WA, she froze in the corner of her kennel, trembling and too scared to move. Kindness, cleanliness, and material comforts were completely foreign to her. But slowly, patiently, with kindness and care, Nutloaf began to trust again. She learned that people could be gentle. She learned what play felt like. She learned love.

Now nearly a year on from her rescue, Nutloaf is spending life loved and cherished with a family of her own. She’s safe, happy. All of this made possible thanks to people who gave a donation.

This festive season, there are so many animals like Nutloaf who are waiting for their second chance. If you can, please donate and be a Guardian Angel for an animal just like Nutloaf. Your kindness can truly change a life. ❤️
