Australia's Secure Pet Community

Community Rules

To ensure Furry Friend Match remains a safe, respectful, and ethical environment for everyone, we enforce the following community standards.

General Conduct

  • Respectful Communication Treat all members with kindness. Harassment, hate speech, or bullying based on race, religion, gender, or experience level will result in an immediate ban.
  • Honesty & Transparency All information provided in profiles and listings must be truthful. Misrepresenting yourself or an animal's health/background is a violation of trust.

Safe Messaging Standards

Our internal messaging system is designed to protect your privacy. To keep the community safe, we prohibit:

  • Off-Platform Solicitation Do not pressure other users to move the conversation to WhatsApp, Telegram, or other unmoderated platforms immediately. Keep initial conversations here for your protection.
  • Spamming Sending unsolicited commercial offers, bulk messages, or repetitive inquiries is not allowed.

Ethical Rehoming

  • No "First Come, First Served" We encourage listers to choose the best fit for the animal's needs, not simply the first person to offer money.
  • Public Safety Never arrange a meet-and-greet in a completely private, secluded location. Always choose a public, well-lit space for initial meetings.

See something, say something.

Our community relies on you. If a user is acting suspiciously or violating these rules, please report them to our moderation team immediately.
