It’s our goal to Clear the Shelters, so we’re offering 50% off all adoption fees until Sunday 13 April. With 1,100 animals currently available for adoption across the country, we’d love for you to come along tomorrow and meet those waiting. ?
You can also head over to our website to check out their profiles, and register your interest early if there’s a particular cutie who catches your eye – this will speed things up on the day.
To keep the experience as calm and positive as possible for our animals and staff, we kindly ask that only those seriously considering adoption attend.
See you tomorrow!

This was also the long-time average and compares with 20.3C in 2024. Every day except one reached 20C, so as usual it was definitely a summer month. Our overall mean temperature of 17.4C was the warmest in Central NZ, with the higher-maximum eastern Blenheim and Masterton at the bottom of the table due to their cold nights.
February’s dry weather continued through March, with only a few showers in the third week amounting to around 24mm, half the average. The combined rainfall for the two months was 34mm only 30 percent of average.
March sunshine equivalent to17 days was slightly below average with cloud frequent at both ends of the day, unlike February that was particularly sunny.
In April we can still expect some summery weather, but with an average temperature of around 19C. Also, the end of daylight saving sees a return to brighter, warmer mornings, and It won’t be as dark again until early June, by which time it will be only couple weeks before the days begin to lengthen again.
The thunderhead over Otaki may have delivered a brief shower in the third week.
