Available for adoption - Cherie
Cherie was surrendered to us recently as her owner was going into a care home, this gorgeous Calico girl is around 4.5 years old.
She is a little shy with new surroundings and new people, but.... once she's comfortable then she has the loudest purr ever!
We are looking for a quiet household without dogs or children, she would be ideally suited to a couple or an older person.
If you think that you have the perfect home for Cherie, please contact us on 04 392 3232 ext 3 or email [email protected] to arrange to meet her. Our cats are based at our Haywards shelter.

**Available for adoption** - ๐ฝFrankie ๐ฝ
How cute is Frankie the kune kune ๐ฅฐ the team found him having a snooze out of the wind when they went to snuggle him up with some extra bedding, and he was more than happy for them to stick around for a scratch!
We would so love to find him an amazing pet only, not for eating or fattening up and on-selling forever home. He will need other pig company, but his friend Potsie is also looking for a new home, and we have a number of other pigs in our care who are available for adoption.
Frankie is approx. 3 years old and loves a good scratch as well as laying on your legs and snoozing ๐ฅฐ
He is looking for a home that is full of love and kindness, is rural, free range and has appropriate fencing, shelter, and a source of supplementary feed.
He is desexed and based in the Wellington region.

Soloman Islands desexing and welfare mission Day 4...
We had a mix of dogs desexing (18), and welfare cases today.
Five beautiful dogs were euthanized due to serious and untreatable medical issues๐ฅบ. And we started dogs with early signs of TVT (Transmissible Venereal Tumors) on chemotherapy.
On the way to the clinic early this morning we followed a lead that two crocodiles were living in seriously awful conditions behind a restaurant. We were floored when we saw them and we will 100% see what we can do before we go.
Video: No animals should have to live like this....

It's not every day we have the US navy come to volunteer at the sanctuary. Luckily Ethel was on hand to show them the ropes ๐ ๐
The team got to work continuing to build the dog shelters and we are so appreciative! It's so cool to see everything coming together and when we've got larger groups like this we can really get stuck in and see shelters go up in a day which is very cool.
If you and your team are keen to pick up a hammer or a paintbrush and do a corporate volunteer day we'd love to meet you. Please get in touch at [email protected]

Happy is going on an adventure!!
Remember the little blind calf with two noses, that came into our care?
Well she's growing into such a good girl!!
But with her primary caregiver heading to the Solomons as part of our Veterinary Welfare response team. We decided to send Happy off for a wee holiday with her Aunty Bron, Uncle Dave and her newly appointed Grandmother๐ฅฐ
Her blindness certainly doesn't slow her down, but her two noses and cleft palate mean feeding time is a bit of an art! And fun fact, Aunty's Bron is a pro, she's even hand raised a Sun bear!!
Have a fabulous holiday Happy!!

HERE WE GO AGAIN๐ญ
We got an After Hours call outs to the Porirua Police station.
Their team had found 8 young puppies dumped in a box at the Waitangirua - TG Link Rd lay-by.
Seriously it's an isolated lay-by on a busy link rd....there's nothing nice or safe about it! If the police hadn't spotted the box and thought it looked a bit sus, then did a U turn to take a closer look.....goodness knows how the story of these vulnerable babies would have ended.
But we trying not to judge, and we know how overwhelmed every community in Aotearoa is with unwanted litters of puppies and kittens right now..... so please if these little ones were yours. Get intouch so we can desex their mum for free, or you are going to be going through this again...very soon!

We want to help you.

Whangarei 31, puppy farm
Whangarei 31...
We've received a little flack for only posting one photo of the puppy farm.
To be honest we thought the unkept sate of the dogs and their medical issues spoke volumes. But here is a video that was passed to us when we transferred the dogs into our care. It's just one room of many.
For those of you saying that the SPCA should have been given the chance to go in, you are completely right. They hold all the power. Legally, It would have been so much easier. But by the time we got the dogs that ship had sailed.
The up side to all of this, is that you now know about it. As a community you are starting to see what's really going on behind the scenes in NZ. We have 12 more puppy farms on our radar right now!
We do tell the authorities. But with food, water and shelter available..there is not always alot that can be done. These places are rearly shut down. Most walking a fine line between moral repugnance and minimum standards.
So although the people who took these dogs absolutely shouldn't have. They have escalated the cause of these dogs. They have exposed a puppy trading pet store and they have put pressure on the authorities to go faster.
We are gutted that welfare didn't trump theft in this case. We are frustrated that our welfare framework doesn't stop these people before they even start! Why do our bylaws even allow people to own that many dogs, let alone the the hundreds of puppies that they aren't required to disclose or register๐ซ
Our sick and inadequate local and central government policies are breeding bad breeders!
The system sucks. And we are going to do something about it. We will role our plan out to you all in the coming weeks...we will need your support xx
As a starting point. If you havent signed these petitions already...please do๐
