ACS Shelters

All ACS Shelters require pre-booked appointments for all visits even if you have visited before an appointment will need to be arranged. ACS Shelters are all managed on residential properties. We ask that our home life after hours please be respected.

Please Note: ACS Brisbane Shelter is our largest shelter and is managed by ACS Founder and President Jessica. Jessica manages a bulk load of work for the organisation which includes all adoptions and surrenders, all finances, updating the website, planning of ACS related events, managing and caring for the animals daily at ACS Brisbane Shelter and so forth.  Sometimes the Brisbane Shelter does get very inundated with phone calls and emails and Jessica is unable to keep up with the workload. Due to this on the occasion a phone call or email may slip through the cracks. We apologise in advance if this happens to you. Please if you are unable to get in contact with the Brisbane Shelter and you have tried via email and phone we ask for understanding and advise that you contact an alternative ACS Shelter in the mean time or email us directly via our general enquiries email address australiancavysanctuary@hotmail.com as other ACS admin regularly check this email account. If your call or email is urgent please mention this when you ring or email and your enquiry will be placed as a priority.
