  • Contact Councils Animal Care Facility.

  • If safe to do so, you can take the dog to your nearest vets or a https://www.findmyowner.com.au/  scanning location to be scanned for a microchip and if identified the owner can be notified. If the dog’s ownership cannot be established, the dog is required to be taken to one of Council’s Animal Care Facilities.

  • Under the NSW Companion Animals Act, cats can roam from their home. Roaming cats can only be trapped and taken to the Animal Care Facility if it's necessary for the protection of any person or animal from injury or death or if a cat is in a designated wildlife protection area.
