Mental and physical welfare of the animals is paramount at this rescue. I've seen first-hand how they bring frightened, traumatised cats and dogs out of their shells, and it's amazing.

The SCAR Animal Hospital will become Hume’s first non-profit animal hospital, offering pet owners affordable/free health care for their animals. All proceeds will go towards Second Chance Animal Rescue to support homeless animals in the community. The Hospital will have a huge emphasis on pet ownership education and health care and offer medical treatments ranging from routine vaccinations and health checks, to diagnostics and special surgeries. We will offer customised training programs to the community, never turn away a sick animal and help keep pets in family homes by ensuring that any pet owner can afford healthcare for their animal.
Unemployment in Hume is 4% higher than the Melbourne's average.
3 in every 5 households own a pet which means a large number of families are struggling financially to care for their pets effectively. There are far too many animals needing to be rehomed or put down for financial reasons.
Hume needs a low cost/free hospital to care for their community animals.
This project will lead to less animals needing adoption due to our free desexing program and less animals being euthanised because owners can't afford the bills. Studies have shown pets make people happier, our community deserves this project

What a beautiful and much needed project to havecmy full support. SCAR do a fabulous job looking after and giving rescue animals the second chance in life they truly deserve. We’ve adopted one of our cats from them and it’s been a fantastic experience. The Animal Hospital would be much needed extra support for animals in need!
