We found him… now he’s looking for YOU! 🐾🔍

Meet Wally, a standout star here at the Bendigo Animal Relief Centre who is ready to be discovered by his forever family 💛

Wally is an affectionate, clever, and loving boy with a big personality. He truly stands out from the crowd—not just for his good looks, but for his friendly nature and eagerness to connect with people. Wally is on a mission to be found by a family who will love him as much as he’ll love them.

We understand the real cost pressures facing our community — and when it comes to cat desexing, we know affordability can be a barrier. Desexing remains one of the most important steps in preventing roaming, unwanted litters and supporting animal welfare. 🐾

At BARC, we are continuing to support our community by offering discounted cat desexing programs from just $20.

Available to ALL ELIGIBLE COGB Residents

With a strong focus on supporting those living in priority areas:
Eaglehawk
Golden Square
Kangaroo Flat
California Gully
Heathcote

If you have a cat and are struggling with the cost of desexing, we strongly encourage you to take advantage of this support.

✅ Apply by submitting an application via our website

Don’t wait — book your cat in and make a real difference.
