Cat Rescue Collection at Barrington Mall 21/07/2018 from 9-5pm
Hi Everyone.
This is the first time we have had a collection at the Barrington Mall, so hope the lovely people of the surrounding area's will beable to support our charity in the following ways:-
1. We will have collection buckets so if people wish to donate money then they can. If everyone donated a gold coin, it would be a good collection with monies to cover our very high vet bills.
2. We will have cat food bins, so if you are shopping at Fresh Choice, you might want to pop in an extra item of kitten food, or kitty litter into your shop, as opposed to donating monies, and come and put in the food bin.
3. Come and talk to us about our fundraising ventures we are involved in ie making crafts for our stall, offering to help with our vegan baking for sale in our stall at the Vegan Expo on October 28th of this year, or you could ask us about 'Webfair'.
4. Just come and talk to our volunteers about what we do. We are cat/ animal lovers and hence love talking about cats in general.
We will be situated (with a table) between the old Paperplus and the lovely ice cream place.
Hope to see you and if you could mention it to all your family and friends.
Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share 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 ❤️
