Op-Shop Open
Hello! Just a message to let everyone know that our little animal rescue charity op shop is still open! We have been made aware a lot of people believe we have closed down but we haven’t!!
Located at 2181 East Coast Road, 4 Paws Pet Care charity shop and desex clinic is open Monday Wednesday 10-4 and Friday 10-2 with the clinic operating on Tuesdays.
We are all volunteers including the growing team of veterinary staff and all funds made in the shop and the clinic go towards reducing desex costs for local rescues and people in need to help the animals have a better quality of life!
Lots of amazing goods in our shop all for very reasonable cheap prices!!
So come in and have a look and support our animals!!
