In the world of Bluey, even Bingo knows the rules:
Dogs 3 months and older must be registered and microchipped under The Dog Act 1976.
Cats 6 months and older? They’ve gotta be registered, microchipped AND sterilised under The Cat Act 2011.
Otherwise… Bandit says, “Uh oh, that’s a $200 fine, mate!”
(That’s a lot of ice creams from the servo, just quietly.)
Picture this:

Bluey is checking tags at the dog park.

Bingo is making sure the kitties have been “snipped.”
Mum (Chilli) is rolling her eyes because Dad forgot to update the contact details again.

And Bandit? He’s reminding everyone that Saturday, 31 October 2026 is the big deadline.
So don’t be a cheeky Kelpie, get your pets sorted with the Shire of Capel.
Happy pets, happy families, no grumpy fines.
