Cat Adoption Day

This Valentine’s Day, open your heart to someone who truly needs it.
Love doesn’t always come with roses… sometimes it comes with whiskers.
Join us at the Animal Care & Education Centre in Woree on Saturday 14 February, from 9am to noon, and meet your potential purr-ever companion. Council, together with our amazing local rescue partners, will be helping find loving homes for rescue cats and kittens looking for their happily ever after.
🐾 Who you’ll meet on the day:

Because the best love stories often start with a gentle purr.
