Pet Rescue (Camden Council Animal Care Facility)

Dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and ages looking for homes are available for you to meet at the Camden Council Animal Care Facility. If you're thinking of an addition to the family, meet the love of your life here rather than buying from a pet store. It will also make space for another animal needing shelter. View the pets available for adoption.

RSPCA Adoptions

Adopted animals can be the most loyal and loving pets.

Search by animal type, and meet some of the adorable animals looking for new homes.

Pet Registry

The NSW Pet Registry is a database of microchipped and registered cats and dogs that live in NSW.

This is the official database in NSW for registering your animal, and owners can easily create an online profile to help ensure they are reunited with their pet if it becomes lost.
