If you can come and take it away, it is yours for free. We got it from the Warehouse 2 years ago. It is in good condition other than the hole as seen in the picture, where it has come away from it's straps - needs a sewer with a strong needle. The netting is all intact, and it is still sturdy. It measures 310cm in diameter, with a little bit more to allow for the uprights which curve outwards.

However this makes it possible for us to explore growth new op shop locations in the Wellington area, as we look to open more stores in the near future for the Wellington community.
Everything in our Petone Op Shop is currently on sale, with prices slashed from now until our closing date. Everything MUST GO before 31 July 2022. We will continue to gratefully accept items donated for the animals in our care, including blankets, towels and pet toys for our SPCA Wellington Centre – but please be aware that we will not be accepting donated items for resale.

Our fixed base weekly fee means Ryman residents can relax and make confident financial choices. And as living costs continue to rise, our fixed fee guarantee is more important than ever.
