Cats Kill our wildlife

Picture
Unfortunately for wildlife- domestic cats have become a huge issue. Please don't contribute to this just by allowing your cats to roam. Build a cat enclosure to ensure the safety of your cat and wildlife. If you live on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia, you are required by the BYLAWS to keep your cat inside 24/7. 
These laws also prevent unwanted kittens and feline aids being passed around between fighting cats.
Should you find injured cat affected wildlife contact our 24 hr wildlife hotline 0435822699,
if you cannot get through on our hotline please keep it warm dark and quiet and take to your closest vet for medical attention.
It is vital cat attack victims receive injectable antibiotics as soon as possible.
The above picture is of a Ringtail possum, which are often victims of domestic cats,
whom play with them often for hours, days and weeks, note the area of regrowth of hair, the multiple puncture wounds from cat claws and teeth. without urgent antibiotics delivered via injection these victims die a prolonged death over many weeks. With correct care from a highly experienced wildlife rehabilitator,  they recover.
