Animal shelters and pounds report increase in surrendered animals across NSW due to rental squeeze
ABCFor the past two years, Newcastle woman Cynthia has been relentlessly applying for rental properties across New South Wales. "I've applied for hundreds of places through emails, phone calls, real estate websites, real estate agents, not just in New South Wales but out of the state as well." Rise in surrendered pets Dee Walton, who manages Maitland Animal Management Facility, said she had noticed an increase in pets being surrendered due to the housing crisis. "Every day, we are taking 10, 20, 30 phone calls for people to surrender their animals," she said. "There's a real squeeze regardless, and so if you do have a pet it makes it that much more difficult to compete," she said.
