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 re-homeable cats 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.
We here at FFARQ are determined to change this situation. We are a virtual not-for-profit organisation located in and around the Brisbane region.
Our mission is to give death row or surrendered companion animals a second chance through fostering, rehabilitation (if needed) and adoption. We also advocate the desexing and microchipping of all companion animals.
While donations help keep our organisation running, the support we receive from our team of dedicated volunteers is just as important. Without their passion and commitment to achieve our goal of helping animals, we would not be where we are today.

Volunteering is a rewarding experience that allows you to connect with people from all walks of life. It is not only a great way to join a community of like-minded people, but it will also give you the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of many cats and kittens across SE QLD.

To align with our core values of responsible pet ownership, all our volunteers must lead by example and ensure their own pets are desexed, microchipped, vaccinated and kept safe inside or in pet enclosures.
Pet adoption products
We are always in need of a variety of things for our cats in foster care, particularly from September when kitten season starts. Donations of worming treatments, litter, food, bedding and toys are welcome to support our foster carers in the important work they do.
