Lucky Ones Companion Animal Rescue

We have opened our home as a refuge for abandoned companion animals. Our aim is to where possible rescue, provide shelter, love and good quality care, whilst we find an adoption into a new loving home. We are a not for profit organisation.

There is a pet over population crisis. This is due to unrestricted breeding, lack of laws protecting animals and lack of good quality homes willing to adopt. This results in thousands of young, healthy, friendly animals per year having their lives taken from them in council pounds, rspca shelters or cruelly abandoned on the street. This is incredibly unfair and we want to save whoever we can from this injustice. We do this by advocating desexing of companion animals, stricter animal protection laws and rescuing from death row in pounds and rspca shelters.

When possible we rescue animals from cruel factory farms and slaughterhouses. These poor animals include chickens and rabbits. With kindness, respect and compassion these beautiful animals can be rehomed to kind guardians. Unfortunately we live in an urban area and are unable to rescue larger farmed animals.

We are proud animal rights advocates, we acknowledge that non human animals are sentient beings like us therefore they deserve the basic right to be treated with compassion, fairness and protection. Animals are not human slaves, commodities or property. Their suffering and wellbeing deserves equal consideration. Humans are animals too, we must extend our compassion to all sentient beings regardless of species. All suffering matters.

We have helped with cruelty cases the rspca have not assisted with, if you know of cruelty to animals please email us at amy_maree@hotmail.com as we may be able to help. You can also report cases to Animal Liberation. The police have the authority to charge people with animal cruelty and it is their job so they are also an option.

We offer discount desexing, microchipping and vaccination for people in genuine need of assistance. Please email us with your request at amy_maree@hotmail.com

We are located in Mayfield, Newcastle, NSW 2304, which is 2 hours North of Sydney.

We have been rescuing and rehoming since 2007. We work with some great vets that give us generous discounts and have had a lot of success rehoming animals in need.

We would like to thank these vets and vet nursing staff for their continued support;
