Meet Lindt
2-3 years old

Lindt is still waiting for someone to choose him, his sister Callie has had numerous inquiries because of her looks.

He will be shy initially due to having limited interaction from people in his past but he loves the company of other animals, he also enjoys playing with toys and sitting on his cat tower.
Once he is used to you he loves his pats.

He would do well in a house with another friendly cat who he can play and cuddle with.

Adoption fee applies
Located in Paeroa

Lindt has been Desexed, microchipped (registered on NZCAR), vaccinated and is up to date with flea and worm treatment.

If you can give Lindt a loving forever home please send us a message

Dear Walter
You my boy are off on an adventure.
You are one of the bestest boys I've ever met.
You were let down by 3 owners avoided death after owner 3 was about to euthanaise you. You were also let down by our local council who outright refused to look at your behaviour away from those who mistreated neglected and abandoned you.

All that is in the past we know where our loyalties lie now.

We would like to thank those who supported Walter who met him and allowed him to meet them. Also thanks to a certain team who were happy to help with Walters behaviour assessment. Sadly not needed as our council wouldn't change their minds. Special thanks to his new family who opened their hearts and home to him. Walter you have found paradise enjoy it you truly are one of the lucky ones.
As much as we will miss you i hope you have already forgotten your life in the Hauraki District area.
Look forward to all your updates and progress.
Your Spot Rescue family

Update: Adopted 🩷
Meet Callie
2-3 years old

Callie is a sweet girl who has really come out of her shell since being in care, she now enjoys her pats and affection although she does sometimes flinch when you first go to pat her.

She came to us from a colony of cats we were asked to help and had limited interaction with people before coming into care so will be shy to start with.

She would suit a quieter home where she can take her time settling into her new environment.

Callie doesn't mind the other animals in care but she also doesn't seek out their company.
She is comfortable being around her brother Lindt (he's also looking for a home)
She is ok with our calm dogs but doesn't like when they get in her face.

Callies ideal home is where she is allowed to take time to settle into her new environment and once she's comfortable she can enjoy all the love and affection she deserves.

April and her kittens update 🐾

April is such a good mum to her babies. She’s super loving and enjoys getting some attention herself.
Her 5 kittens are doing so well and are 6 weeks old today.

They are all eating on their own (but still having feeds off April) and learning to use the litterbox. They are growing fast and their little personalities are really starting to show.

Meet April’s babies 💕

Stella - Female Tabby
Our little runt. She loves to sit on your lap, be close to you and was the first one to eat on her own.

Phoebe - Female Tuxedo
She is a quiet girl who loves being close to her mum. Unfortunately, Phoebe hurt her leg the other week, so she’s on crate rest for the next few weeks as advised by our vet. She’s enjoying the extra TLC while she recovers.

Plankton - Male Tuxedo
He was always the first one at the door wanting to greet us, get cuddles and run around.

Spartacus - Male Ginger
The biggest boy. He loves getting up to mischief with Fireball but is equally sweet and cuddly.

Fireball - Male Ginger
He loves getting into mischief with Spartacus and always has something to say when you pick him up.

They should be ready for adoption in a few weeks once they’ve been desexed, vaccinated, microchipped etc so keep an eye on our page.

Hey everyone
We try not asking for help but after what happened yesterday this touched our hearts and we wanted to share what another rescue is dealing with and another wee dog is going through.
If you can spare a few dollars to help Paws - Restart with this dogs surgery please do.

To the Person or persons who caused me to bury a dog this morning before my day started id just like to say I dislike you more than words can say. No I dispise you. As a result of your actions I missed my morning coffee I also missed spending my morning with my own animals my family had to rush around get up and ready early change everything because you wanted to adopt out another dog another number.
We are not happy!
Maybe in future when you rehome a dog or puppy you will do a thorough property check.
Your actions or lack of them caused distress to a dogs new owner also to myself and my family. We went out looking for the dog for hours last night driving walking crawling under houses looking searching etc sadly we couldn't find her. Until this morning when we were notified of her passing. A huge thank you to the couple who found her moved her off the road showed her respect.

This leads us to let you all know (or followers and potential adopters) we are strict on checking properties and if our first search doesn't show us what we want we try ok use alternatives. When we ask for videos or photos we check both the height AND the underneath for gaps. If we're still not happy we arrange for people to do a check in person and if your out of our area we use contacts to do the checks for us.

Unlike some rescues/organisations we are available to help any hour of the day or night for all questions and concerns.

Some rescues/organisations are so busy getting their animals "out the door" that they overlook the basics.... 1. Fencing is the house fully fenced? AND SECURE!!!! 2. Is this dog suitable for this owner? Let's face it there's no point giving a person who cant walk far a hyperactive dog that requires a great deal of exercise. 3. Are you just wanting the dog gone to boost your adoption numbers for the month or are you prepared to hold onto it a bit longer to find the perfect match? If youre not prepared to hold on MAYBE you're in the wrong "profession".

If you read this and think "oh gosh are they talking about me" in short yes we probably are.

Please remember when we ask for photos now you all understand why a little better hopefully. Accidents do happen we know this but this one was preventable. RIP Miss M Myles and I will miss our walks with you. He and you formed an amazing friendship/bond in a matter of days we could see you growing into such a confident wee girl yet your life was taken far too soon. Fly free see you again one day at the rainbow bridge. 🌈🌈🌈

Update: Adopted 💙
Meet Walter
4 years old
Mixed breed - Poodle x Golden retriever x Labrador

This boy has been with us for over a month while we get to know him and he is now ready for a fresh start in a new home.

Walter is a pretty easygoing boy who enjoys having company but is equally happy to spend his afternoon relaxing on the deck. He knows his basics sit,paw/shake, bed. He also is great sleeping in a crate at night however doesn't like being left alone in a crate for long periods.

Walter may not of had the best start to life but he not a bad dog.

Unfortunately for Walter he has been classified as a menacing dog by the local council. We have been told by the council he was classified due to "rushing" people. He was left for days home alone with a female dog who he was breeding with so we are not surprised he rushed some people. It could have been a number of reasons why he did this. We have been trying to get this removed as he's not a bad dog, even the ACO said he's a good boy but yet they won't remove it.
This means Walter must wear a muzzle in public.

But here's the thing
Walter has been fine when people come and visit, he's walked with other dogs and has walked past people and cows in a paddock without a problem.

We also gave him a much needed haircut as he had quite a few matts and he just stood there without an issue. He even lay down on our laps for the groom at one stage.

Walter is not a first time dog owners dog he needs someone who will continue his training who will put his needs first who will be prepared to put in effort into building a relationship with him.

He is the sweetest boy who just wants a place of his own to call home.

Walter has been Desexed, microchipped (registered on NZCAR), vaccinated, flea and worm treated. He is also registered with the council.

Meet Callie and Lindt our mystery pair

These two are the last of a colony of cats we were asked to help.

We believe they are siblings, although we can't say for sure. They are both around 2-3 years old.

Callie and Lindt will need some time to settle in their new environments as they both haven't had much interaction from people before coming into care.

One is a little more confident and enjoys pats, although does still flinch at first when you go to pat them. This cat doesn't mind being around other cats or dogs but is also happy on their own.

The other is more timid around people to start but will accept pats and is getting more confident everyday. This cat smooches up to the other cats and seeks out their company so would do best with another friendly cat in the home and also loves to play with toys.

They are both beautiful cats who deserve a loving home.

They have both been Desexed, microchipped (registered on NZCAR), 1st vaccination, flea and worm treated, vet checked.

Located in Paeroa
Adoption fee applies

If you can tell us what type of cat you are after and if your home is suitable one of these cats may be able to move to your place. Or both if you like.
