Can you lend a paw to help?
Several hundred thousand unwanted animals are surrendered to animal shelters every year, and about 250,000 otherwise healthy and rehomeable cats and dogs are euthanised. Many more are abandoned, and either die on the streets from sickness, starvation or accidents, or adapt to a feral lifestyle and have a devastating effect on our native animal population.
Furry Friends Animal Rescue Queensland seeks to change this situation. We are a not-for-profit organisation located in the Brisbane region, established on 1 January 2011. Our mission is to give death row or surrendered companion animals a second chance through fostering and rehoming. We also advocate the desexing and microchipping of cats and dogs.
We need cash donations to support our work, but just as important is the support we receive from our volunteers. If you want to help, or have an idea, contact us today at fundraising@ffarq.com.au
