🌹 Today we remember them. To the fallen men and women who died in the line of duty, we remember you. To the animals whose lives were lost by their sides, we remember you.

RSPCA does not promote nor glorify the suffering of animals in war. We recognise and solemnly honour their sacrifice, and today we remember all sacrifices of all animals in all wars. We also think of animals serving in current conflicts around the world.

📢 Help shape a better future for Australia's animals!
We welcome the Australian Government's commitment to re-establishing the Australian Animal Welfare Strategy (AAWS), and we're encouraging you to have your say before the final consultation closes on 13 November.

From pets and wildlife to farm animals and animals used in research, teaching, sport and recreation, the strategy is an important opportunity to improve the lives of animals nationwide.

We welcome several important inclusions in the draft strategy, including:
🐾 An agreed definition of animal welfare.
🐾 Recognition that animals are sentient.
🐾 A shift towards achieving positive animal welfare outcomes, rather than simply preventing cruelty.
🐾 A commitment to science, evidence and collaboration.

While these are important steps forward, there's still more work to do to ensure the strategy delivers real, lasting improvements for animals.

Now is your chance to support these important changes and call for stronger animal welfare protections across Australia.

🙋‍♀️ Have your say: bit.ly/484M40e

⏰ Submissions close at 5pm AEDT, Friday 13 November.

Don't miss your chance turn stronger animal welfare protections into reality!

Look who’s finally come out of their shells! 🥚🦎
These two tiny Lace Monitors have had quite the journey before even taking their first steps.

Their eggs were rescued from a large-scale development site at Monarch Glen and brought to our RSPCA Wildlife Hospital, where they were safely tucked into an incubator.

With the temperature and humidity carefully monitored each day, all there was left to do was wait as the little lives inside continued to grow.

Then came the moment we’d been waiting for… two tiny heads emerged!

The hatchlings have now headed into the care of one of our amazing wildlife carers, where they’ll spend some time growing bigger and stronger before they’re ready for life in the wild.

With nearby habitat also destined for development, finding a safe and suitable place for their eventual release will be the next important step in their journey.

For now though, these two have some growing to do - and we think they’re off to a pretty cracking start! 🥚🦎❤️

Meet Mikey 👋
Once a worried little chap, Mikey has discovered that life is pretty great, and he's officially appointed himself Director of Fun! 🎉

This clever, cheeky boy is all ears if you have treats training plan or even just a vague suggestion that something interesting might happen 🐶

Speaking of ears… we're fairly certain his satellite dishes have a personality of their own!

Mikey has mastered office life, happily snoozing beside his human while they work, but his productivity may vary when snacks are involved 💤😂

Mikey has one small area of ongoing professional development: visitor management. He can get a little carried away with his enthusiastic welcome committee, so he'll need a family who can continue his training and help him learn that not every hello requires a full red carpet reception!

He's a lovely walking companion who enjoys getting out and about, and he's looking for fun-loving humans who appreciate a dog with plenty of personality, enthusiasm and a whole lot of heart ❤️

Mikey has come such a long way, and now he's ready for his next adventure, preferably with someone with a pocket full of treats and loves a good laugh! Check out his profile online and apply to adopt today 👉 rspcaqld.org.au/find-a-pet/details/a2jMp00000DmRXuIAN/a1490518

105 days and counting for Earl 💔
Some friendships are worth taking one paw-step at a time! 😺

Earl is a gentle boy with a lovely personality just waiting to shine 🌟😻

He's already making wonderful progress and growing more confident every day, and we know there's so much more of his personality still to come.

Earl's dream is for a calm and cosy home where he can settle in at his own pace. Think comfy hideaways, scratching posts, high-up lookout spots and plenty of time to explore when curiosity strikes!

He's still figuring out his feelings about other furry friends, but with slow, careful introductions, he may be able to share his home with a friendly cat or a calm, social dog.

Could you help this sweet boy blossom into the happy, confident cat he's meant to be? Check out his profile and apply to adopt today 👉 rspcaqld.org.au/find-a-pet/details/a2jMp00000DhvQ9IAJ/a1483371
