Lamma Animal Welfare Centre
Some animals live pretty awful lives which not only makes them miserable but forces them to become a trouble to the community. Several species sometimes come to our attention but the vast majority of our work is with dogs and cats. They do not have the ability to survive satisfactorily on their own in our modern world. Each one of them needs to be found a good home.
