Important notes:
- It is a legal requirement that your cat is sterilised. The State Government has provided funding to assist and provide low cost sterilisation for cats owned by pensioners and people on low incomes.
- Pensioners receive a discount on registration fees.
- The animal registration period runs from 1 November until the 31 October every year. Therefore from 1 June until October the registration is at half rate of the applicable fees.
