SPCA Hawke's Bay has the power to protect all animals from abuse, neglect, and abandonment, including prosecuting people under the Animal Welfare Act 1999.

📢🚩Special Announcement!🚩📢
HASTINGS IS FULLY BOOKED

The team at SPCA have been working hard to bring a FREE CANINE VACCINATION DRIVE to Hawkes Bay.

On November 01, both Napier and Hastings Centers will be closed for the day so we can vaccinate & microchip vulnerable dogs in our community, most at risk of contracting (and sharing) Parvovirus.

We know vaccinating your animal can be an extra expense that some owners are struggling with right now - and we are here to help.

If you think your dog might benefit from this free service, then please the QR code below to register for this event!!

Priority will go to applicants within our highest parvo effected areas - we only have 50 spots available per center, so get in quick!

We love happy endings ❤️🐾

This wee girl (previously named Porsche) was adopted by a lovely young lad who has poured his heart and soul into her.
Now named Mahina 🌙 - meaning Moon/Moonlight, she has learnt Te Reo commands and is a bilingual doggo now!
And her new Dad sure has a talent for capturing beautiful photos of her ❤️🌈

🦎It's not every day SPCA staff get a call about a SNAKE in the garden 😯... but our Napier team didn't hesitate to assist! Much to their relief, the snake in question was infact, Bluey, a well loved pet who had been missing for over a year! With the help of our friends at HB Bird and Wildlife Bluey the Blue Tongued Lizard was reunited with her family today. Well done to all!🦎

📣 New Zealand – we need you to join us by making a submission against cruel farrowing crates! 📣 The Government has only given you until 23 October to raise your voice!

As you might have seen in the news, the Government has announced its appalling plan to change the Animal Welfare Act to allow the use of horrific farrowing crates indefinitely – even though they were due to be banned on 18 December 🚫

In their efforts to let this happen quietly, they opened public consultation last week, giving you just TWO WEEKS to make a stand by writing a submission.

They’re hoping we won’t have enough time to raise our voices. Let’s show them how wrong they are.

We’ve put together some instructions and wording for you to use in your submission, so it will only take you a few minutes. Please stand up for pigs now via our site: https://www.spca.nz/advocacy/farrowing-crates-submission

What an awesome day out Napier’s Pawrade.

It was a beautiful morning of tail wags, treats, and walkies through the city as we got to celebrate Dog-Friendly Napier.

A huge thank you to Animates and Vet Services Napier for the spot prizes and free nail clips.
And to all those who came to say hello, especially the pups who have been adopted from the SPCA over the years. It was wonderful to see everyone again.

Explore the full list of dog-friendly venues anytime at napiercbd.co.nz/dog-friendly-napier or spot the Dog-Friendly Napier stickers around town, it’s your cue that pups are welcome too! 🐕💛

🐾 Meet Billie - The Biscuit Baker! 🐾

Are you looking for a cat with ambition, work ethic, and a strong passion for carbs? Look no further - Billie is your girl!

👩‍🍳 Name: Billie
🍞 Profession: Full-time biscuit baker (specializing in invisible dough)
⏰ Shift starts: 5:00 AM sharp. No days off. No snooze buttons.
📍 Location: Your bed, your lap, or any blanket that looks like it needs kneading.

Billie takes her biscuit business very seriously. Her paws? Soft. Her form? Flawless. Her dedication? Unmatched. She's known around the napier centre as the Yeast Whisperer, the Doughminator, and the Pawfessional Kneader.

Don't let her calm demeanor fool you - Billie's always on the grind (literally). She's been caught working overtime with no extra pay, purring her way through 12-hour shifts at the centre. She's a one-cat bakery, and she runs it with pride.

So if you're ready to adopt the hardest-working cat in the pretend pastry game, Billie is here, whiskers quivering with purpose, paws ready to knead, and heart full of love.

🥐 Apply now - Billie's got biscuits to bake, and she's saving a fresh batch just for you. 🥐
