Keeping Cats Safe at Home helps cat owners prevent roaming to protect both their pets and native wildlife.
At RSPCA NSW, we love cats! And we believe every cat deserves a safe and permanent home, away from the elements, with a family who loves and cherishes them.
Two in three cat owners have lost a cat to a roaming-related accident, with a third of these tragic accidents involving cars.
Figures like these motivated us to create the Keeping Cats Safe at Home campaign and encourage those who have a cat in their lives to keep them safe from harm at home.Â
As part of the campaign, we’re sharing safety insights, inspiration, and cat enrichment advice to help cat lovers everywhere extend and enhance the lives of their beloved feline friends. This campaign is all about loving cats, celebrating the people who love their cats, and motivating pet guardians to keep their feline companions safe and fulfilled.Â
Life is better with a cat, and what’s even better is when they are safe at home because we all want our feline friends to live their best lives…

The Keeping Cats Safe at Home project aims to encourage and enable cat owners to prevent their cats from roaming outdoors to maximise their safety, in addition to the safety of native wildlife animals. As part of this project, we’ve tailored feline management toolkits to 11 partner council areas and created resources to equip cat lovers with the knowledge and skills to help their cats thrive indoors.
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.
