🐾 We had a very special visit from The Breeze Hawke's Bay this week!

They spent some time meeting a few of our adorable puppies who are currently looking for their forever homes. ❀️

A huge thank you for coming to visit, sharing some puppy cuddles, and helping us spread the word about these beautiful pups. We loved having you here!

Dog owners! Do you need advice on trimming your pet's nails? πŸ•οΈ We know it can sometimes be a daunting task, and many dogs (and owners!) are nervous when it comes to getting this done.

We've created a helpful guide explaining how to know if your dog's nails need trimming, important things to be aware of, and when to seek veterinary advice ❀️ Understanding the anatomy of the dog's nail is crucial in ensuring you can do this safely (avoiding the inner 'quick'), while keeping your dog happy and healthy.

Check out the detailed guide on our website, and please share this to help other dog owners in the community: https://www.spca.nz/advice-and-welfare/article/trimming-your-dogs-nails

πŸΎβ„οΈ Puppy Paws Winter Appeal β„οΈπŸΎ

Winter is just around the corner, and we have so many beautiful pups dreaming of a home, soft bed, and loving family to cuddle up with. 🐢❀️

Please help us by sharing this post far and wide. Maybe one simple scroll could lead the right family to the pup they never knew was missing from their lives. 🏑✨

Some of these puppies have grown up with us and only know shelter life, but we hold onto hope that their forever families are out there waiting to find them.

Every share could change a life.
Every paw deserves a home. 🐾

Got a little extra land? Perhaps you live on a farm or a lifestyle block, or know someone who does? SPCA needs foster homes for farm animals! 🐎🐏

We can't emphasise enough just how important our foster homes are πŸ™ Whether the animals need space to grow and gain strength, or recover from neglect or mistreatment, having a safe foster home is a key part in their journey to adoption.

Anita is one of our treasured farm fosterers.

"I love animals, and we have plenty of space since moving to a lifestyle block in South Auckland," Anita says. "When I realised we could help out by fostering, I decided to sign up.

"At this stage we had four alpaca of our own. I fostered Cosworth the alpaca, and he needed meds to help him with some of his ailments. It was so lovely to see his health improve.

"I totally recommend fostering. The SPCA team are there to support you if you have any questions or concerns, and they check in regularly." 🩡

Sign up to foster via our site: www.spca.nz/fosterwinter2026

It’s not just dogs and cats that need foster homes – but farm animals too! πŸπŸ–πŸŽ

Animals like goats, horses, pigs, and chickens often have the have the hardest time finding foster homes, as it requires a loving fosterer with the knowledge and the space to care for them while they wait for their forever homes 🩡

Christiane is one of our much-appreciated farm fosters, who was inspired by her love of animals to get involved.

"I enjoy meeting the new animals and gaining their trust, offering them a warm, safe environment and then meeting the lovely new family once they've been adopted," she says. "My most memorable fosters would be Maple, the three-legged goat - and 'Stinky Pete', the big gentle giant!"

Christiane's message to anyone considering fostering? "Give it a go! Fostering frees up space at SPCA so they can help more animals. There is no financial cost to you and it's extremely rewarding." πŸ™

🚧🐱 Important announcement from our tiny management team 🐱🚧

Our mama cat Patience has politely informed staff that the kitten room is CLOSED today while she catches up on important duties… such as napping, eating, and judging humans. 😸

So the kitten room is out of order today, but don’t worry β€” we still have plenty of lovely older cats who would absolutely love some visitors, cuddles, and admiration if you’re popping in today. 🐾❀️

Thank you for understanding while our queen runs the show! πŸ‘‘
