I was a registered pedigree breeder. I fed my animals well. Science, diet, biscuits, home-cooked, meals, clean, water, up-to-date with vaccinations and worming. They contacted me saying I had been reported for neglecting my animals. I rang the number on the card on my door. I asked them to clarify how I was reported as neglecting my animals? They said no water left out for the animals, matting of fur, malnourished, etc. I explained I have receipts from Petbarn to show how much money I spend on good quality food & worming & flea treatment products, and that my Animal don’t have long fur And their fur doesn’t Matt. After I chatted with her thinking I was talking to somebody normal. Her response was ‘ Thanks for telling me that.’. I thought that was strange. The next thing the Council came around, saying they heard complaints. They came into my home to do an inspection. They told me to change some areas. Because they did smell. I had cat Enclosures on Pavers. And the Pavers seemed to capture/hold the smell of Cat spraying. I paid two men, two dismantle the cat enclosure, dump, the pavers, relocate cat enclosure onto grass area. Vinegar and bicarb treated the area prior to a gurney job. Council came back to inspect. Appeared to be happy with the changes. Yet, I got a fine saying I had not addressed the areas that they had raised on their first inspection. They then issued me to remove/rehome all my animals. I appealed with Council and they rejected it and advised me to go through QCAT. I appealed through QCAT to have a stay on there Order. QCAT approved the stay and I had a scheduled court date to discuss with Council etc. Before the court date, Council and RSPCA, along with two police officers came into my house INGNORING the legal stay saying they didn’t interpret/understand the state to mean that they were not to come. They took all my animals except for two dogs and two cats. Some of my animals were pregnant. They stole value of over $100,000 worth of animals. There were around 10 people in my house at 7 am in the morning. The police officers kept me in the kitchen while RSPCA stormed through my house and put all my animals in cages. I refuse to let them in, but they push their foot in the door and barge their way in. They refuse to leave until I signed over the pets. They were there for 5hrs badgering me. They promised that I could rehome my pets. To contact them. I organised for many family and friends to take my animals. But when I called them the next morning they said you can’t have any of your animals back because we’re doing an investigation. I burst into tears & questioned what was going on, and they just hung up on me. They accused me of having sick animals that were riddled with worms & diseases. Yet I had the two dogs and cats they left with me fully Vet checked and stool samples taken The next day. All my remaining pets were in perfect health and documented by my Vet. They lied so they could profit from my pedigree animals and there offspring & justify their actions. The Council has their own legal department that knows exactly how to steal your animals and get away with it & Work in partnership with RSPCA. They get volunteers to look after these stolen animals, with heartbreaking stories that they were neglected/abandoned/abused. Then they sell them for their financial gain. They refuse to tell me where my animals went & refuse to let me visit them. I had a $5000 pedigree boy Cat. He Just vanished like my other cats and dogs. I consulted a private investigator. He advised me I was wasting my time. He was a retired Police Detective. He said they run a revolving door business. They take the animals and get rid of them before you can figure out what’s happened and you could never find them. There is a law that says that whatever the council does, that’s against the law, they will never be prosecuted for it. So basically they have freedom to do whatever they want, when they want and there’s nothing we can do about it. I finally got my Hearing date With QCAT. They said, because the animals aren’t around any more and I no longer live at my address. There is no case because I had asked for my animals to be returned to my home & it was no longer relevant. The amount of stories I heard from other people/breeders who had gone through the same experience, was astounding. RSPCA Pet Insurance… I wonder what that’s about. So Corrupt who’s got the money, the time or the emotional strength to seek Justice Oh, I nearly forgot to mention. All of a sudden this entire solid black cat kept hanging around my house, stirring up my cats at night, fighting through the cat enclosure with my boy cat. He did manage to get to 2 of my cats. I suspected he wasn’t a random stray cat. He was extremely strong and good looking. I wondered if he was deliberately let loose to cause havoc for myself. So the neighbours would complain, and they would have legitimate complaints coming in. Could be just my paranoia. The whole ordeal was traumatic to say the least.
