More than a quarter of a million unwanted or abandoned cats and kittens have been brought to the RSPCA over the past five years and the problem is multiplying. Desexing your cat will help to stop this unacceptable problem and avoid adding to this shocking statistic.

RSPCA teams up with WSPA to fight for a ban on live animal exports.
The World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) is leading a global Coalition of animal welfare organisations who are running a campaign to end the long distance transport of animals for slaughter.

Tail docking is illegal in Western Australia...
Despite what you might read elsewhere the pointless and painful practice of cutting a dog's tail off so it looks "neater" is illegal. We've put an FAQ together so you can get the facts about one of the most misunderstood dog myths.

What does it mean to be one of the 10.5 million battery-caged hens in Australia? Battery hens are kept on average for a year in wire mesh cages only 40 cm high with a floor area per bird of 550 cm2 - about the size of an A4 piece of paper.

Choose Wisely is our national campaign to get hens out of cages. Visit our campaign website by clicking the hen to the left.

The RSPCA works tirelessly to protect animals in Australia. It is diligent in campaigning and raising awareness about animal welfare issues in the community and exerting pressure on State and Territory governments to improve animal welfare legislation.

A vital way in which you can support the RSPCA is to be vocal in your opposition to animal cruelty. By contacting your local members of parliament and government ministers and urging them to make the changes so strongly advocated by the RSPCA you will be lending weight to the voice of the RSPCA and will be speaking up for those animals who cannot speak for themselves.
