- Dr Harry, Better Homes and Gardens
As Sydney's only charity pound and community facility for almost 80 years, we open our doors to thousands of pets each year, providing shelter, food, vet care and lots of love and cuddles to lost, homeless and abandoned animals. And we NEVER place a time limit on any rehomable animal awaiting adoption.
Senior pets often face unique challenges when it comes to finding homes. Misconceptions about age, concerns about health, and the allure of younger animals can sometimes overshadow the incredible qualities senior pets bring to a home. These seasoned companions often require less training, have well-established temperaments, and are grateful for the love and care they receive.
Your donation can make an enormous impact on the lives of senior pets. It provides essential medical care, helps us create comfortable living environments, and supports our dedicated staff in their mission to find these pets loving homes.
Together, let's make sure these senior pets have the opportunity to enjoy their golden years in a warm and caring family environment.
I'm searching for my forever home, a place where I can shine as the center of attention. You see, I'm not a fan of other dogs, so I'd be over the moon to be your one and only, especially if you're around during the day to keep me company.
I absolutely adore people, and my tail can't help but wiggle with joy when I see you. Even though I've been around the block a few times, I still have a spring in my step. I enjoy our walks, but I need to take it easy because of some health issues, like osteoarthritis, a heart murmur, and dental problems. Thanks to the Vet Team, I'm on the mend.
I may be a bit older, but trust me, I'll bring sunshine into your home. Adopting a senior like me can be incredibly rewarding, and I'm ready to find my forever family as soon as possible!
Seeking that special someone. I'm here to show you that senior cats know how to have a blast! Who says we can't be playful? I'll prove them wrong with my lively spirit. Whether I'm chasing that elusive laser pointer or showing my love for scratching posts, my youthful enthusiasm will light up your days and bring a smile to your face.
I've got this playful nature that'll keep you entertained and remind you that age is just a number. Plus, I wouldn't mind having another feline friend to share some fun moments with.
If you're ready to welcome a senior lady like me into your home, you'll find a perfect mix of affection, playfulness, and a dash of silliness. With the right environment and a little patience, my heart is ready to join yours on a journey filled with trust, love, and heartwarming companionship!
I've found love now - thanks to people like you.
Before then, I must admit, I was really struggling when I came into the Home - pretty overweight, the friendly humans said I had severe arthritis that was putting a lot of stress on my body.
But these people were the best. Quickly admitting me into their vet hospital, the team put me on pain relief and a controlled nutritional plan. I also had an anaesthetic and a series of radiographs to treat a cruciate rupture.
They even found me my own special friends who are giving me lots of love, cuddles and care as I continue to lose weight.
Thanks for helping pets like me!
