Residents Urged to Update Pet Details

With Moreton Bay’s growing population, there are many new pet owners in the area. New residents should remember that all dogs and cats must be registered within 14 days of moving into the city or by 12 weeks of age. Discounts apply for desexed animals and concessions are available for eligible pet owners, such as pensioners.
