Goulburn Mulwaree Animal Shelter is encouraging the community to ‘adopt not shop’ this Christmas if considering a new pet for your family.
The campaign is being promoted right around NSW by the Office of Local Government, with animal shelters, RSPCA shelters and other rehoming organisations getting on board.
“Our Animal Shelter has been having good success this year with rehoming, and as we approach Christmas, we encourage you to continue adoption rather than buying a new pet” said Mayor Bob Kirk.
“Your next best friend might be waiting for you in our Animal Shelter, and comes with benefits such as half-price registration, as well as already being de-sexed. Giving an animal a second chance on life is a wonderful thing to do.”
Rescue a cat or dog:
- Give a forever home to a homeless animal
- Ease the burden on pounds and shelters
- Receive half-price pet registration
- Enjoy companionship money cannot buy
If interested in adoption a pet, please contact the Goulburn Mulwaree Animal Shelter via 4823 4444. The Animal Shelter is located at 41B Ross Street, Goulburn.
