Prospective pet owners are being encouraged to check out the Epping Animal Welfare Facility’s new pet adoption webpage.
The facility, which is managed by Whittlesea council on behalf of Merri-bek and Darebin councils, houses cats, dog, rabbits and guinea pigs.
The adoption site allow people to search for their furever pet and is updated daily with new listings.
All pets featured on the site have undergone health and temperament checks to ensure they are suitable for adoption. All pets come desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, flea and worm treated, according to Whittlesea council.
Whittlesea chief executive Craig Lloyd said the new website will help connect pets with a loving new home.
“The wellbeing of animals in our care at the facility is of utmost priority. Our aim is to reunite owners with lost pets as quickly as possible, but this can’t always happen for a variety of reasons,” Mr Lloyd said.
“The pet adoption site will help the Epping Animal Welfare Facility connect future pet parents and their perfect friend.”
The pet adoption webpage provides information about each animal including their age and a biography.
“It is extremely important to council that pets are adopted into households that are suited to both parties,” Mr Lloyd said.
