Spare a thought for the animals

Marie from Waikanae

Another Guy Fawkes rolls around and once again i am dreading it. Every year thousands of animals are injured after being panicked by fireworks. Thousands more are not physically harmed but left traumatized by the noise. Many react as if they are about to be shot. They are terrified.

Another Guy Fawkes rolls around and once again i am dreading it. Every year thousands of animals are injured after being panicked by fireworks. Thousands more are not physically harmed but left traumatized by the noise. Many react as if they are about to be shot. They are terrified.
Please do not let fireworks off in open spaces where horses, sheep or other animals are grazing. Spare a thought also for your neighbours who may have a horse grazing next door, or back yard chickens who are equally terrified of fireworks. Make sure your cats and dogs are safely inside, and if you can, let your neighbours know when you are setting off fireworks so they can put their pets inside too.

We would love to be in a nice rural area with a big paddock we can spend our days in, digging around and eating some nice food and treats. Unfortunately we are unable to live in urban areas. We need to go out in pairs, or together as a group of 4. We would also be okay going to our new homes where there may be an existing pig family we can join in on. If you have room in your farm family for us, please enquire with the Wellington SPCA team."

German-born British composer Max Richter invites us on a journey through his reimagined landscape of Vivaldi’s pictorial masterpiece The Four Seasons.

The Four Seasons is something we all carry around with us,” says Richter, “It’s just everywhere. This project is about reclaiming this music for me personally, by getting inside it and rediscovering it – and taking a new path through a well-known landscape.”

Dancers from inclusive dance company Jolt join together with musicians of the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra to create an energetic and evocative performance.

Led by acclaimed violinist Martin Riseley, this event is a joyous and affirming celebration of movement, music, and life.
