If you’re looking for a local place that cares for lost, surrendered or stray animals, wat djerring Animal Facility is a community-focused animal welfare centre in Epping run by the City of Whittlesea. They take in animals that are lost, stray, abandoned or surrendered and provide essential veterinary care such as vaccinations, desexing and health checks so pets are ready for rehoming or return to their owners. The facility works actively to reunite lost pets with their families by maintaining records and offering recovery assistance, and they collaborate with rescue groups to help rehome animals — with regular adoption initiatives like discounted cat adoptions to encourage responsible ownership. Residents of Whittlesea, Darebin and Merri-bek can surrender animals there, and the centre accepts donations to support animal care. They also run community engagement programs and have introduced a name and approach that reflects cultural heritage and inclusiveness. Importantly, they provide practical support for vulnerable community members by offering temporary accommodation and fostering options for pets of family violence victims, helping keep people and their pets safe together during difficult times.
