Annually the last Tuesday in February is internationally known as World Spey/Desexing Day. This initiative started back in 1995 in the USA and has since spread to 41 countries around the world.
❤️It is a day to highlight and promote the desexing of companion animals world wide.
We have many rescue centre’s throughout the Waikato and New Zealand that work tirelessly to help rescue, desex and rehome the many unwanted kittens and puppies born in New Zealand every year.🐈🐕🦺
We encourage and support the importance of desexing dogs and cats to help combat the overbreeding of unwanted animals, not only that but there are health benefits also:
•Risks of infections, cancer and other diseases of the reproductive organs in our precious pets are lowered.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
