Wish List
Our ultimate wish and hope is to build an animal emergency hospital and rehabilitation and training centre centre at our place in Devon Meadows.
You can help us build this by helping out financially or donating supplies and equipment.
What we need to achieve in order to set this up are as follows:-
-
Suitable land which we can purchase from our neighbor, adjacent to out property.
-
A large barn style construction ( our intended hospital) with a mezzanine floor, plaster for the walls, concrete slab, flooring, all other building materials, and paint.
-
Vet equipment (tables, cupboards, oxygen, X-ray facilities etc.
-
Kitchen with cupboards, benches, fridge, and sink for preparing food for animals.
-
We estimate the cost of this will be around $500,000
Bushfires and what we will urgently be needing.
With the bushfire season just around the corner, and the threat of the fires not what we want to hear. We will be needing new protective gear. It will cost around $700 to fit each volunteer out with the DSE legal required gear with.
