P2265 - Animal Welfare, Collection and Boarding Services

Description

The Council is seeking a supplier to provide a reliable animal collection and temporary boarding service for pet animals whose owners are unable to care for them because they have been taken into the care of the council and no else has agreed to look after the pets. This service will enable Birmingham City Council to fulfil its statutory duties to make provision for the welfare of property (including pets) of citizens it provides care for, in situations where there is no one else who is willing and able to do so.
