Althea - Available for adoption

Kirihika from Island Bay

Available for adoption, Althea đź–¤
- Female
- 2-3 years

Here’s what her fosterers say about her:
“Althea came to us as emaciated stray roaming Miramar, we had tried to find her owners but no one claimed this sweet girl, after a few weeks of some gentle love and lots of yummy food she perked right up!

Althea is a big girl who loves to play but can be rough so needs someone who will take the time to train her to be gentle. She’s not much of a lap cat but will definitely come and sit beside you as you work or are watching the telly.

Althea would best be suited to a home with no young children (teenagers ok), no other pets and an indoor/outdoor home”

Althea is desexed, has her first vaccination and is microchipped, her adoption fee is $250.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

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 ❤️
