Pet Ownership Survey

Make your opinion count.

We are conducting a national survey to learn about the key factors that may be preventing wider pet ownership in Australia.

Pet ownership provides valuable social and health benefits to both the pet and their owner, yet many people, including the vulnerable and elderly, are often unable to experience pet ownership.

We’ve designed this Pet Ownership Survey to better understand how and why people can and can’t own pets. It's a step towards us developing projects to support those most in need of help to own a pet or keep their current pets.

Discovering why people are unable to own pets is key to finding ways to help spread the benefits of pet ownership – with “pets” defined as any domesticated creatures ranging from insects to horses.
