Homes are for everyone

– This campaign has closed. For more information see renting and strata for cats

Everyone in NSW has the right to a safe home, including renters with animals!

Around 7 in 10 Australian households live with animals. Yet only 1 in 10 homes available to rent in NSW advertise that animals will be ‘considered’.

When people are forced to surrender their animals because they can’t find somewhere to live together – this can be a death sentence for animals if they can’t be rehomed.

Submissions to the draft updated threat abatement plan (TAP) on feral cats close 4pm Monday 11 December 2023
