We hope to see you this Saturday!

A massive thank you to the Christoffersen family for their $100 donation to us this morning - they had a bake sale from their home to raise funds for our animals in the centre ♥️ we appreciate you, thanks so much 🐶🐈‍⬛🐾

Want to come and meet all of the cute cats at SPCA? Come along to one of our walk-in Caturdays! 🐱🙌

While adopters usually require appointments to meet the animals, for the next eight weeks you can simply drop into our Centres on Saturdays to meet the cats and kittens in our care.

Kitten season is in full swing, with over 1,400 felines needing to find homes over the next eight weeks ❤️ When you choose to adopt from SPCA, you can rest assured knowing they've been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, and health-checked, to ensure they have the best start to their new lives.

To speed up the adoption process for you on the walk-in Caturdays, we recommend registering your interest at www.spca.nz/caturday-adoptions - click the 'register to adopt' button on one of their profiles! (Please note appointments are still required for other animal adoptions).

We hope to see you on one of our walk-in Caturdays at your nearest SPCA Centre - every Saturday from 25 January to 15 March! 🙏

An update on Fizz and Sienna now Martha and Pippin - lovely to see them getting on so well, thanks for this Kat🥰🥰
Kia ora
We adopted Martha (formerly Fizz) from Rotorua SPCA in May 2022. After her buddy Hawkeye died in July this year, she was lonely and moping, so we started searching for a new friend for her. It took a while to find the right candidate, but we finally adopted Pippin (formerly Sienna) at the end of the month, and she's since made herself right at home. It took them a day or two to warm up to each other, but they're now chasing each other all over the house, fighting over the best spots in bed at night, and generally being super bestie snuggle buddies. Martha just needs to remember that she's no longer the little spoon!

Kia ora everyone,

We are receiving a large number of calls concerning the cats and kittens sighted on Te Ngae Road near Pak n Save.
We are actively working to trap and remove these felines from the busy, high traffic zone they are located in, and are working with nearby businesses to ensure we can carry this out safely and securely.
We appreciate everyone’s concern for these cats and kittens – please know we are trying our best to retrieve them as soon as we are able.

Looking for a fun activity for the school holidays? Design a bandana, and win a dog soft toy! 🐶 🙌

Get your kids to unleash their creativity and design a fun dog bandana. It's good to remind them that while dressing up animals can look cute, it's important to consider their comfort and think about why they may not enjoy it - and bandanas can be a good alternative to funny outfits!

How to enter:
1. Head to the latest issue of Kind Matters, and create a unique bandana design using the template.
2. Take a photo or scan of your finished design, and upload it online along with your details.

The template and entry portal can both be found here: https://kids.spcaeducation.org.nz/newsletter/

✨SATURDAY NIGHT SPOTLIGHT✨

Give it up for Shadow!!🐶❤️

Shadow is our handsome 11 month old Bordie Collie X.
This boy came into our care way back in August last year, and we cannot believe he still hasn't found his forever family.
Shadow has spent the past 5 months in a loving Foster home - check him out in the photos celebrating Christmas with his foster sister Ruby!!🎄

Here's what Foster Mum Sam has to say about Shadow:

"A beautiful boy, lots of emergy but also loves snuggles and will quite happily fall a sleep on you. Shadow by name shadow by nature, wherever you go he will go, waits outside the bathroom for you. Pleasure to walk on the lead, will happily walk/run by the side of you on the bike, he just wants to explore and spend every possible minute with you. Loves his denta sticks, egg on toast, likes cucumber and loves carrots. Likes his kong filled up with food and lick the peanut butter off.

Some more awesome things to know about Shadow:
⭐️He's toilet trained,
⭐️He's crate trained
⭐️Knows his basic commands,
⭐️Loves people and will be good with kids
⭐️Gets on well with most dogs.
⭐️He is a very active boy and would suit an active lifestlye - check him out in these photos going on a trail run with his foster mum!

Shadow turns 1 on January 23 and we so want him to find his forever family before then! To read more about Shadow and to put in an application, follow the link here: https://www.spca.nz/adopt/animal/614685/dog-shadow-rotorua?centres=rotorua-centre&species=all
