FOSTER CARERS NEEDED

The Rescue Club are doing the good work, taking as many animals into care that we can.

😺 Kitten season has arrived, and so have the mums with kittens and pregnant mums, waiting for tiny arrivals.
🚑 Cats are coming into care from our vet, regional pounds and community members.
🐶 Owners are asking if they can surrender their pets to us.

To meet this growing need, we are looking for more foster carers to join our team. We need carers for cats and dogs.

✔️Do you have love to give, but can’t commit to a permanent pet right now?
✔️Do you have a spare room in your house or a secure yard?
✔️ Can you provide respite for other foster carers or welcome a cat or dog as they await adoption.
✔️ Are you considering adopting a cat or dog but you'd like to try first?
✔️You love cats and dogs and want to see them well cared for when they wait their new home.
✔️Playing with kittens is your idea of bliss.
✔️You are free in the morning to transport cats to the vet for desexing surgery.

If you think that you may be able to help us in any way, please comment below or shoot us a message. We would love to welcome you to the team!

Gorgeous Gigi is ready to pop! Safe in care for nearly 2 weeks now, she is nearing go time, and we’re wondering how many gorgeous wee ones she’s carrying. Any guesses?

Meet Lorne (named appropriately as she was abandoned)

My post is raw. Please feel ok to keep scrolling.

Foster carer here. I picked her up just 24 hours ago as a preggie that came from a rural pound. We don’t often get back story. Her story is different. Assumably bought (as no rescue would ever let them leave a house without being desexed, vaccinated or microchipped) by lets say a ‘backyard breeder’. 6 months old.

6 months old. WTAF.

I picked her up from a long travel. Brought her into care. Lots of love forever and beyond.

The triggering thing is… well, first and foremost – she is emaciated, secondly is she pregnant with kittens or worms? Honestly in my time with rescue, she has had a litter before. As the sun sets on tonight… I am unsure. There is no rulebook.

We will give her EVERYTHING she could possibly hope for.

It is peace out for me, as I want her to re-love humans (BUT SHE ALREADY DOES)! I guess as a human, I need to not hate that her humans left her after moving, I need to not hate humans for not desexing her, and I need to find more humans like us that want to stop the cycle of unwanted animals.

🥳 Happy birthday Taka! 👯‍♂️

When Taka was surrendered to us on Tuesday, she was pretty unimpressed. She was experiencing a change of environment and a matted coat that made her uncomfortable.

To get her comfy and looking fabulous again, a haircut at the vet was in order. Today, she celebrated her 2nd birthday with a makeover.

Lucky for Taka, she enjoys a brush, so her new hair will be lovingly maintained by her foster carer until a forever home is found.

🎃🦁 MEET QUACKERS, THE FRIENDLY LION! 🦁🎃

Don't be scared, her roar is actually more of a QUACK! 🦆😂

Our gorgeous Quackers has traded street life for the good life, raised five beautiful babies and recently acquired a rather questionable lion haircut. She's now officially retired from motherhood and accepting applications for permanent staff!

Her demands are simple:
🐾 Unlimited chin scratches
☀️ A sunny spot to snooze
🍗 Treats, treats and more treats
🦆 Someone willing to listen to her daily quacking
👑 Preferably no other animals stealing her spotlight!

She's sweet, chatty, curious and just a little bit bossy. But after everything she's been through, we reckon she's earned it!

This Halloween, Quackers isn't looking for tricks. She's looking for a forever home and plenty of treats! ❤️

Could you be the lucky human to adopt our little lioness?

It’s been a big week at The Rescue Club and it’s only Wednesday! We say welcome to these gorgeous cats who are now all safe in care. We’re not sure what’s in the air, but it seems like there’s a definite theme in who has arrived. While it’s not been planned in any way, it’s a good thing because unfortunately, some people use Halloween time to treat cats like them in terrible ways. 😞
None of this crew are yet ready for adoption.

Hello to Taka! This young lady will celebrate her 2nd birthday with a haircut at the vet to deal with her matted coat.

We have Gigi, who is finally cozy inside, awaiting the birth of her kittens after too many litters in a backyard colony. The cycle ends here.

Mum and her 2 kittens have just arrived this morning via our vet- names to be decided!

And Pickles, a sweet young man who is now safely inside and in care after starting life on the street. He will be desexed this week.

Keep your eyes peeled here and on Pet Rescue to see when these guys are available for adoption.

Happy forever after Koko!

We are delighted that Koko has found her forever home, with two gorgeous lab siblings, two gorgeous humans and a massive yard with space to explore.

Koko was adopted earlier in the year, but found herself needing to return to us. She has been cared for by a generous foster family who have treated her as their own, with some bonus holiday time as well.

We can’t tell these happy ending stories without the support of our amazing foster carers, who love and care for our animals until they are ready for adoption.

🎃 And just like that… the Halloween countdown is on! 👻

Garry & Stevie thought they’d get in early and dust off their costumes. To be fair, Stevie already has the pirate eye, so he’s been preparing for this moment his whole life 😂🏴‍☠️

They’re great with kids, cats and dogs and all of their vet work is done. They are just two funny, affectionate boys who love being involved in absolutely everything.

So while everyone else is looking for Halloween treats this month, we’d really love to find a family for these two 🖤🖤

No tricks here… just Garry & Stevie🎃🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

$400 to adopt the pair
