Cat Rescue Collection at St Martins New World 8am to 6 pm Sat 23rd
Hi everyone.
We are having a collection for Cat Rescue at St Martins New World tomorrow from 8am to 6pm. We currently have over 80+ kittens in our care (I say plus as I just heard another 7 came in today so it can go to 90+ very quickly) so are in desperate need of money donations, kitten food and kitten litter (small bags of kitten litter are around the $5 mark).
Please share in the Xmas spirit even if it is coins as they truly add up. Hope to see you all tomorrow. Not sure where we will be placed but come search for us or ask at the Lotto Counter (last xmas we where placed at the door directly facing the Lotto Counter and not our usual 2 spots)
May everyone have an awesome and safe Xmas break, and spread that extra love and kindness to children, the elderly and to animals (who do not have a voice).
Pss this is a photo of one of my previous fosters called Nina who was a unsocial stray who Cat Rescue worked with and now she is a amazing social loving pet and lives with her mother/family in Oamaru.
Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
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 ❤️
