Proplan, one of the big pet insurance companies, is running a nationwide pet census. It will be open until the 1st November. The premier
pet insurance
provider has
commissioned this
census to explore
areas relating to
the relationships
Australians have
with their pets. “We feel that pets
are such valuable
and important
members of society
that they should be
counted.” “We are
calling on all pet
owners to complete
the Pet Census 2016
survey so as to
evaluate what it is
like to be a pet
owner in Australia
today.” “Pet Census 2016 is
steered towards
adopting practices
that promote
positive pet welfare
and generally
encourage a
successful and happy
relationship between
the owners and their
companion animals.
While Australians
are already known to
be a nation of
animal lovers, Pet
Census 2016 may
demonstrate that
pets play a big part
in making us
compassionate,
happier, healthier
and more sociable.”
This short
10-minute census
will go a long way
in furthering
research and
development for pet
welfare. Results of
the Census will be
sent to any pet
owners who have
requested results
while submitting
their census data.
