Best course of action to follow when taking your animals home after a natural disaster.
LOOK FOR DEBRIS
Find out the extent of the damage to your property to ensure that it is safe and remove any potential hazards.
ACCOMMODATION AND SECURITY
Make sure you have a clean, dry and undamaged space to house your animals. Floodwater can cause disease and surfaces will need to be disinfected.
NOISE AND ACTIVITY
Animals affected by natural disasters may be traumatised and spooked easily. If possible only return your animals after repairs and rubbish have been removed.
FOOD AND WATER
Ensure your pets have access to clean water and uncontaminated food sources.
SHELTER
Animals returning to properties must have appropriate shelter from the elements.
HEALTH
Monitor the health and safety of your pets once home.
Help all creatures great and small by making a monthly or single gift. Your support will help us to continue to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome animals every day.
Volunteer
Without our valued volunteers, RSPCA Qld would not be able to help the many abused, abandoned and injured animals that come into our care every year.
Adopt A Pet
Our goal is to find safe, loving homes for the many animals in our care. Why not take a look at the beautiful animals waiting patiently to find a home now.
