🚨 URGENT FUNDRAISER – RAFA NEEDS US 🚨

Yesterday, one of our beautiful foster boys, 4-year-old Rafa aka Roy, was hit by a car in a tragic accident.

This was a terrible accident, and no one is to blame. Right now, all that matters is giving Rafa the best possible chance.

Our cheeky, happy boy should be enjoying life, not fighting for it in an emergency veterinary hospital.

Rafa has suffered a fractured humerus (upper arm), air around his lungs and internal bleeding in his abdomen.

Thankfully, he’s made it through the night and is doing as well as can be expected. His blood results are showing some improvement, and the internal bleeding appears stable for now.

However, he’s far from out of the woods. The veterinary team is monitoring him closely, and further complications are still possible.

THE REALITY IS, WE’RE FACING ESTIMATED VET BILLS OF $15,000–$18,000.

As a small volunteer-run rescue, we don’t have a bottomless bank account. With so many dogs already depending on us, an emergency of this magnitude puts enormous pressure on our limited funds.

But Rafa deserves a chance.

He’s only four years old, and we’re determined to give this cheeky boy every opportunity to get back to the happy life he deserves.

🙏 We don’t often make appeals like this, but we desperately need your help.

If you can’t donate, please share his story.

Please help us give Rafa the fighting chance he deserves. ❤️

*** FOSTER CARER FOUND ***

STOP SCROLLING – IMPORTANT!

WE DESPERATELY NEED A HOME FOR 4-YEAR-OLD LIZZY!

Lizzy's story has brought us to tears…

Earlier this year, Lizzy sadly lost her owner to illness. A close family member took her in, but now they have unexpectedly developed a serious health issue and will be facing months in hospital.

Poor Lizzy has lost her owner and now faces losing her home again.

Understandably, she is extremely stressed and, although she previously lived with other dogs, she currently cannot cope with other animals.

Lizzy desperately needs stability, love and a safe home where she can be the ONLY PET.

WE NEED TO MOVE LIZZY ASAP!

Current location: Near Ballarat, VIC

Please, if you can help Lizzy, click here to apply: https://brna.com.au/product/vic-lizzy

Even sharing this post could make all the difference!

Please avoid using this synthetic webbing to decorate your house for Halloween.

Native birds are nesting at the moment, and many species such as the beautiful White Plumed Honeyeater below will use (real) spiderwebs as a downy padding for their nests. Unsurprisingly, the parent birds cannot tell the difference between real and plastic spiderwebs, and when used for nesting, this material can result in fledgling birds becoming snared in their own nests. You can see the poor little bird in the attached image has a foot that is entirely bound up, and needed to be "cut out" of its nest.

The material can also trap bats, larger birds and insects, generally resulting in a slow, painful death.

Let's do better for all the wonderful wildlife we have! 🌿🐦🦉

Please share original post so Nero can find his forever home after his surgery

*** FOSTER CARER FOUND ***

🚨🚨 NERO- SUPER URGENT FOSTER CARER NEEDED🚨🚨

📍 Wide Bay Region, Queensland
🐾 11 years old

Nero has found himself in a regional pound, and we can't stress how urgently he needs a foster carer! Nero was found with this lump between his legs which has likely been there for YEARS! The lump is ulcerated and causing him significant pain, so BRNA have organised to have it removed urgently tomorrow.

We don't know his history, where he has come from or what he has experienced, and given his lump removal tomorrow, we need a foster home that can provide:

- A safe, secure environment and patience while he settles in and recovers from major surgery.
- Someone home a lot to help with his recovery.
- No other dogs or pets, older children and a quiet home for him to decompress.

Please note, NERO is a special case and we need a special person to take him on. Can you open your home and give him a safe place to land? We NEED to hear from you NOW!

Applying? Click the link in our bio and specify 'Nero' in the specific foster section.
