Every dollar has an impact
Did you know that every day RSPCA Queensland receives 47 cruelty complaints?
Sadly, every two hours we go to rescue an animal from cruelty. This means that our Inspectors
and Animal Ambulances are on the road 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Responding to animal cruelty and neglect
Every day you are standing shoulder to shoulder with our team of Inspectors putting petrol in the tank and providing the equipment we need to rescue animals everyday. Your generosity allows our team of Inspectors to work across Queensland, rescuing animals at every hour. Animals like Poppy, who was found starving in a backyard with every rib and hip bone visible. She was tied up and had become tangled, and worst of all she also had seven puppies. All of these dogs had hookworm, heartworm and were in urgent need.
Rescued by an Inspector, Poppy and her puppies were treated and were adopted into loving homes.
Saving lives and rescuing animals in need
Recently our Inspectorate team were called to a job where twenty-two cats were living in terrible conditions. As a member of the RSPCA Rescue Team, you allowed us to rescue these cats from their torment. Upon arrival at the house, our team found numerous cats in hot sheds without food or water and several cats had serious eye infections and were in terrible pain. Some of these eye infections were so serious that their eyelids had fused shut.
However, thanks to your support we were able to rescue these and many other animals across Queensland.
You are making sure our native animals have a future
Our beautiful wildlife face threats every day. Your kindness and love of animals’ means that we are able to be on the road 24/7. Be it rescuing kangaroos stuck in a drain or saving koalas that have been hit by a car, together we rescue native animals in need. As part of the RSPCA Rescue Team you are joining hands with us to protect our native creatures and rescue them when they are injured or in need.
This is the biggest fight of our lives, as koalas, platypus, bilbies and other native animals are clinging to survival. We could see koalas extinct within a generation. Koalas like Katia, who was pulled from under a bush by a dog. With no mum around and very cold it was touch and go for this little koala. Luckily, our Rescue Team got to her in time and she is now growing bigger and stronger with a loving wildlife carer.
Your support means that we can be there for Katia and the other 25,000 other native wildlife that need our help every year.
