The cost of permanent containment for pet cats can be cheaper than a single vet bill to cover treating a roaming-related accident (car strike, animal attack). Suitable containment solutions can even be done in a temporary way for renters. Time to rethink the problem. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

Quite possibly one of the clearest summaries as to why change is both possible and necessary for the permanent containment of pet cats in Western Australia. Let's get this change happening now! www.watoday.com.au/national/wes...

Please join us for this important workshop on the how of implementing permanent containment for pet cats. This is all part of the process for moving to a new normal for best practice cat ownership in Western Australia. We hope you can all be part of that change. See you online on the 12th June!

👏 A great turnout at a 🐇 control workshop last week to provide Southwest landholders access to the R5 calicivirus release for introduced rabbits. #feralcats, #foxes & dingoes all consume rabbits as prey and rabbits cause environmental degradation across Australia.
