Reminder: Tomorrow is our national walk-in adoption day with 50% off adoption fees

The Team from SPCA Auckland - Centres & Op Shops

That’s right – if you’re ready to adopt, you can swing by your nearest SPCA Centre tomorrow (Saturday 5 April) to meet the animals without an appointment ?

It’s our goal to Clear the Shelters, so we’re offering 50% off all adoption fees until Sunday 13 April. With 1,100 animals currently available for adoption across the country, we’d love for you to come along tomorrow and meet those waiting. ?

You can also head over to our website to check out their profiles, and register your interest early if there’s a particular cutie who catches your eye – this will speed things up on the day.

To keep the experience as calm and positive as possible for our animals and staff, we kindly ask that only those seriously considering adoption attend.

See you tomorrow!
