Primary Industries Minister Jane Howlett says the facility will help promote responsible cat ownership, and encourage the management of unwanted and stray cats – which can pose a threat to native wildlife.
Just Cats founder Rachel Beech says the funding is very welcome and will provide a vital service for the region.
