This is what NOT desexing your pet looks like.
This tiny kitten and his sibling arrived into our care early last week - not only was he cold and wet, he was sick, underweight, and covered in fleas. The two of them had been found out in the bush, and they must have been out there during the 3 days of torrential rain that we had just had prior.
We have named him Nemo and he is now being fostered by a staff member. Unfortunately his sibling was too far gone, and the only thing we could do was to help that one peacefully pass over 🌈 💔
This situation was entirely preventable.
We have been inundated with dumped/found kittens for the past 8 months. And puppies? It’s even worse. We are getting calls every day from Northlanders with unwanted litters of pups.
Please help us break the cycle, by getting ALL your pets desexed. It is the kindest and most responsible thing a pet owner can do - it prevents suffering before these unwanted animals are born. Even if your cat or dog is already pregnant, they can likely still be desexed now and prevent their next litter.
Contact our centre now for your FREE desexing voucher, the surgery is then done at a local vet clinic closest to you (we have a list for you to choose from). Call us on 09 407 7515 within our opening hours, and the voucher will be emailed to you.
Please share this information all over the Far North; we know many people are not on social media.
In the meantime, little Nemo is getting huge amounts of TLC - he is a very lucky kitty.
