Animal Management Facility
Cairns Regional Council has constructed a new Animal Management Facility (AMF) at 55-57 Links Drive, Woree.
The new AMF provides essential services for owner reclaim, rehoming, impounding and basic medical treatment for in-house animals, and a safe working environment for staff.
With the previous facility having reached capacity and come to the end of its useful life, the new AMF offers a best-practice, purpose-built facility with more kennels and cat cages.
The facility includes:
- a public reception area
- administration office space and meeting room
- accommodation for up to 125 animals
- separate, dedicated areas for general stray/impounded animals
- maternity care area
- facilities for high-care and dangerous dogs
- veterinary treatment, exercise, food preparation and laundry areas.
- a Sally Port, which is a controlled entry way for the secure transfer of animals from vehicles.
