URGENT!

Animals need you! We currently have 921 animals looking for a home across the country. During these unsettling times we want to ensure adoptions don’t slow down and we can find our animals in need the loving families they deserve.

From tomorrow, we are reducing adoption fees for all animals across the country:

• Puppies and kittens have a $99 adoption fee,

• Adult dogs and cats have a $50 adoption fee,

• Small animals such as guinea pigs and rabbits have a $25 adoption fee

• Adoption fees for other animals are available on request.

Adopting an animal will allow centres to continue to provide excellent care and comfort for animals in need, while helping SPCA during this uncertain time. With families likely to be spending lots of time at home, now is an ideal time to adopt.

We are taking all the necessary cleaning and hygiene protocols across all our Centres. Centres will be practicing social distancing, which may mean visitors could be asked to wait in their vehicles before being welcomed into their local centre – please do only visit our centre if you are looking at adopting an animal.

Please SPREAD THE WORD!

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
