RSPCA Australia (Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) is an Australian organisation that was founded in 1981. It promotes animal welfare.

The RSPCA is partly funded by the Australian Government. It is the leading animal welfare organisation in Australia. It also has many animal shelters for pet adoption, and many animal products in Australian supermarkets are from RSPCA-approved farms.

The RSPCA in Australia is inspired by the British RSPCA, an animal welfare charity in England and Wales.

The RSPCA has branches in every state and territory of Australia:

RSPCA shelters can be found in every state and territory and in both cities and towns. There is at least one RSPCA shelter in every capital city except Hobart.
