The RSPCA Care Centre at Tuggerah is a shelter outreach facility that includes an adoption centre retail department and pet grooming salon.
RSPCA Care Centre mission statement
"To promote responsible pet ownership through re-homing, education and community enrolment."
The goals of the RSPCA Care Centre:
...
* Decrease euthanasia and increase adoptions
* Promote responsible pet ownership through education
* Provide expert advice that is accurate and in keeping with our policies
* Provide a service that is of the highest standards for both Animal Welfare and Customer Service
Integral to this project is the care and protection of animals. As the RSPCA, we are subject to scrutiny and we must be exemplary in our commitment to animal welfare. We have created an environment where animals come first. You will never see puppies in the window at Tuggerah. Every animal has been transported from local RSPCA shelters. Like all RSPCA animals, the Tuggerah residents will be desexed, microchipped, behaviourally tested and vet checked. We will also be providing a range of animals of different sizes and ages (not just cute puppies and kittens), and the staff will all be RSPCA accredited.
The products and services that RSPCA Care Centre Tuggerah will bring to the community are:
* Animal Adoptions
* Retail Products
* A Pet Advisory Service
* Community Education and Events
* Pet friendly cafe (coming soon)
