Animal Rescue Tablelands Inc: Established since July 18, 2012, we have been the lifeline for countless animals in Mareeba and surrounds. We’re a privately run, registered not for profit volunteer-based organization with one unwavering mission: to give unwanted, abused, neglected, and owner-surrendered animals a second chance at life.
As the only no-kill rescue organization in Mareeba, we fight tirelessly to rehabilitate animals who, without us, would face a grim fate in pounds, refuges and shelters.
Our rescues are treated with love, compassion, and the care they deserve. No animal ever leaves our care until they’ve received all necessary vet work, including desexing and routine vet checks. Every life we save comes at a cost, but we remain steadfast in our promise to protect and care for them, relying entirely on donations, as we receive no government or council funding.
The Seconds Shop: In response to the growing demand for rescue services we opened The Seconds Shop on April 4, 2018, at 68 Byrnes Street, Mareeba. This shop isn’t just a store, it’s a beacon of hope. Every purchase helps us save lives, care for animals in need, and sustain our life-changing programs.
Our Support Programs:
Last Litter: As part of our Ethical Approach to reducing the number of homeless dogs/cats, Animal Rescue tablelands Inc. run a Last Litter Program where you surrender the whole litter from dogs/cats and we De sex the mum for FREE and she is returned to her owners, then we complete all vet work including De sexing of the pups/kittens and we rehome them.
• Domestic Violence Victims' Pets: For those enduring the heartbreak of domestic violence, we offer temporary care for their beloved pets at a reduced fee. We understand that pets are more than companions, they’re family and a source of healing. We work closely with The Women’s Shelter in Atherton to help survivors rebuild their lives without losing their furry friends.
• Hospitalized Seniors’ Pets: Elderly pet owners facing hospitalization shouldn’t have to worry about their animals being left alone. Partnering with social workers at Atherton and Mareeba Hospitals, we ensure these cherished pets are cared for until their owners are ready to return home.
• Support for the Homeless: Homelessness is difficult enough without the fear of losing a beloved pet. We step in to care for these animals until their owners find stable housing, allowing them to stay together and rebuild their lives.
Our dedicated network of volunteer foster carers ensures that each rescue gets the love, training, and socialization they need to thrive in their forever homes. They are the unsung heroes, helping these animals transform from scared and uncertain to confident and ready for a new beginning.
