Older Kitty Up For Adoption!
As a pet store we do not sell or profit from animals, we encourage families to adopt from shelters by advertising animals in need of homes. We feature two animals a week, every week, so get ready to see some cute fuzzy faces!
Meet Poppy!
Poppy is up for adoption through Crazy Cat Lady Cat Rescue South Auckland!
Poppy is a nine year old girl who came into care after her owner went into a rest home. She would love a lap of her own to cuddle up on at night, and she likes to do her own thing during the day.
She needs to be an only cat, after being severely bullied by other cats who lived in her household in the past. She can't go to a home with dogs.
She would suit an older person or couple, or a family with much older children, as she likes the quiet life.
If Poppy sounds like the calm companion to match your household, please contact the team at Crazy Cat Lady Cat Rescue through the link below!
Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...
Share your Christmas mishaps below!
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
