In local boarding facilities the animals that are kept in housing are free to walk and run, have access to fresh water, are exercised twice a day or for at least 20 minutes a day and are well cared for. Tragically, the animals that are kept at Tarraray Pet Retreat in Bonville, NSW seem to be locked in hot stuffy rooms with no air ventilation, no access to a toilet and just one glass window which is located at a height where they cannot see anything outside. The pets owners have found their pets are eager to be released when picking them up from boarding, not only this but there have been a lot of issues concerning the welfare of the animals. I believe this issue needs to be resolved as many pet owners want the best for their pets while being away. In order to give these animals a voice, the locals of Coffs Harbour have initiated a petition against Tarraray Pet Retreat and it is open for all animal lovers around the local area and online.

Please help put an end to the cruelty that has been reported by many who have either had their animals there, or have left with their animals who have seen the conditions that they are expected to endure. Add your name to the petition to pressure the council of Coffs Harbour City and any other available agency to immediately perform an inspection on Tarraray Pet Retreat, Bonville, NSW.
