Update - 17 November 2023: Council has suspended its cat cage hire program due to the global shortage of vaccines.
RSPCA South Australia has recently advised they are unable to accept unvaccinated cats due to a supply shortage of core cat vaccinations.
An exception will be made for surrendered cats whose owners can provide a certificate as evidence of their cats being vaccinated in the last two years. Surrenders are by appointment only and assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Kittens less than 6 months of age will continue to be taken in at this time. There are strict practices in place for this process to ensure the safety of other sheltered animals.
As a result, the City of Marion will temporarily suspend its cat cage hire service, until further notice.
