UQ’s Pets-for-Life adoption program gives unwanted pets a second chance in life while at the same time helping Clinical Studies students learn about handling skills, animal behaviour and preparing for procedures.
Adopting a Pet-for-Life is very rewarding as one of our new families recently said after adopting ‘Mishka’ the cat,
“The program is about changing lives, not only of those animals whose destiny has been to save others, but about improving the quality of your own household, bringing into your home the kind of emotional and physical happiness that only a beloved pet can offer”
Our Pets-for-Life adoption program will match the needs of the pet with the right family. So if you are interested in meeting one of our pets please call 5460 1868, leave a message and we will return your call as soon as possible.
We are based at UQ’s Gatton campus and open Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm.
Adoption Fees: $350.00 for dogs and $250.00 for cats. All fees go back into caring for our Pets-For-Life animals.
All dogs and cats are;
All our Pets-for-Life adoption animals are kindly supported and fed by Advance Pet Food.
The Clinical Studies Centre is helping to contribute to solving the unwanted and abandoned pet issue through education and each time a dog or cat is adopted we save another life.
Crackle who came in with her sister Pop and Snap, is a fun loving young lady. Sadly she is the last of the Rice Bubble girls to find a home. Can your home provide the missing link, for this adorable young lady, everyone needs a little 'Christmas Crackle'

Like the Honda, our Jazz is a little pocket rocket. She LOVES other cats and needs to go to a home with another cat. Jazz can be a little shy at first but once she is comfortable in her environment, there is no stopping her. She is a young girl who is eager to please.

Look at this gorgeous girl! Haloumi "Loomy" is the most amazing blue fawn colour, truly unusual and beautiful with her silvery-blue ears! Loomy is shy and desperately needs someone to spend time with her teaching her the world is not such a scary place. She would benefit from having a confident, playful dog to live with and is looking for a new family who can give her consistent, gentle handling and training in household manners using positive reinforcement - she really likes food thanks!

You are either prepared for a shy dog who needs patience, understanding, space, time and commitment, or you're going to swipe left. Mozzarella is about 10 months old (Sept 2019) and plays well with other friendly dogs, she is not overly trusting of people, but if you have great treats and low expectations with lots of time, she tries really hard and is very responsive to positive reinforcement training. She 's just very uncertain about people and will never be the dog you take to the coffee shop. Mozzarella needs to get out into a real home where she has space to stretch and play as she can be very boisterous and rough if she has a moment of bravery! She would benefit from having another tolerant, playful and confident dog to show her that life can be fun and that the world isn't such a scary place.
