No-Kill – No Exploitation
WLPA promotes an ethic of never using, exploiting or harming animals of any kind.
Our Goals are to stop the killing of thousands of healthy cats and dogs every year, to rehome as many to spare them the cruelty of being killed in pounds should they become lost or abandoned, and help provide a healthy humane support system for pets and their people.
CARING FOR YOUR NEW PET
While all our animals are checked by a veterinarian and lovingly looked after by our experienced staff & volunteers, we also provide many resources to help you help your pet!

Animal Rights Issues in Australia
The WLPA has a long history of supporting animal rights causes in Australia. Our current campaigns for various animal welfare issues that we believe need addressing politically includes:
- 1080 Poisoning
- Kangaroo Slaughter
- Trap Neuter Release (TNR).
We also support and partner with many people & organisations promoting a non-exploitative lifestyle with the animal world, such as the Vegan journey & Cruelty Free Festivals
How to sponsor an animal in need
the perfect choice for someone who cannot take care of a pet full-time for now…
– but still wants to help take care and involve themselves in making an abandoned pets life better.
WLPA is self-funded. A volunteer management committee oversees the charity, its members being elected each year from the Membership.
WLPA has a small operational team of staff and relies significantly on volunteers.
