We are a non-government, community based charity that works to prevent cruelty to animals by actively promoting their care and protection. RSPCA Victoria was established in Melbourne in 1871. Since this time, the RSPCA has become Australia's leading animal welfare charity.

Our community services include work in education, advocacy, animal care and protection. In Victoria, we operate nine animal Adoption Care Centres and one community pet care centre, providing refuge and care to more than 20,000 animals every year. 

As a not-for-profit organisation, we rely on community support to care for 'all creatures great and small'.  More than 90% of our funding is due to the generous support of the Victorian community.

My 9 year old twins attended Baa Cluck Neigh and absolutely loved it. They came home and couldn't stop talking about their time there and how they want to go back every school holidays. It's evident that RSPCA Victoria is making a positive impact on animal welfare through classes like "Baa, Cluck, Neigh." This class not only promotes responsible animal care but also raises awareness about the importance of treating animals with compassion and respect.

My daughter loved this class and the interaction she got with the animals. The first thing she said when I picked her up was that she wanted to go to one of the other classes in the next school holidays.
