This Saturday the NRAS Rescue Shelter will open the doors once again for its monthly Adoption Day, from 10am-1pm in Ballina.
NRAS says there are always beautiful dogs, cats, puppies and kittens looking for their forever homes and this Adoption Day could be the ‘one’ when you find that special fur-baby that will fill your family void.
The morning also offers people the opportunity to check out the facilities, find out about becoming a foster carer or an NRAS volunteer.
The usual $10 services will be operating, including ID tag engraving, microchipping, hydro-bathing and nail clipping. Along, with regular stalls including doggie merchandise and treats, a yummy barbeque and hot & cold drinks.
Look before you visit
If you are interested in adopting, please go to the website to view the profiles of the animals that are currently available and to download an adoption questionnaire.
All animals adopted through NRAS are vet checked, flea & worm treated, microchipped, vaccinated and desexed.
For any further information, call the Shelter weekdays between 10am and 4pm on 6681 1860 or email: [email protected]
The NRAS Shelter is at 61 Piper Drive in Ballina.
