The Orange Pound is a purpose-built facility designed to care for the city’s stray cats and dogs until they are reunited with their owners or transferred to rescue organisations. Dogs and cats are available for adoption. Contact the pound to make an appointment to meet available animals. The pound is designed with the welfare of the animal first and foremost and contains insulated kennels for 32 dogs and 18 cages for cats, as well as four under-cover kennels at the front of the facility for dogs to be dropped-off outside of hours. The building is equipped with an isolation room for sick pets to prevent the spread of disease, a veterinarian room, a cat room separate from where the dogs are kept, a hydro-bath and grassed exercise yards. Our pound is designed for cats and dogs only, all other pets without a home, should be taken to the Orange RSPCA in William Street.
