Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Keeping Cats Safe at Home project?

Keeping Cats Safe at Home is a ground-breaking four-year project that aims to encourage and support cat carers everywhere to keep their pets indoors. Using research, education, and targeted desexing, we’re hoping to keep cats safe, improve animal welfare education, and protect the natural environment and our beautiful wildlife animals.

If allowed to roam outside, your cat may be vulnerable to a variety of risks (like sustaining an injury from cars) or damage your local community by preying on native wildlife. For purpose-built resources on creating a home where your cat can feel loved, stimulated, and engaged, you can contact our Keeping Cats Safe at Home team at safecats@rspcansw.org.au.
