The shelter at Rutherford is open between 10am and 4pm every day except Tuesday and Public Holidays.

All RSPCA animals have undergone health and behaviour assessments to make sure they are suitable for adoption as companion pets.

Dogs and cats are also desexed, microchipped and vaccinated to help give them the best possible fresh start.

By choosing the adoption option, not only are you giving a new home to an animal in need, but your support will help the RSPCA care for many more animals.
