to the kind lady that brought me the male blue/grey cat i have an UPDATE on him
blue/grey cat has not had such a great time he has been hiding out at one stage i though that he may have escaped my enclosure he has not wanted to interact and show his face until today, he's still shy & has not made a sound, i'm not giving up on him i have to be patient & give him his space he is slowly warming up to me at this stage he's just not ready for re-homing he will stay with me until i am confident that he will settle into his new forever home, he must be really missing his sister i wish i could take her too and maybe smokey will be less nervous, cats to grieve for the ones who are the closest to them and i would love to have him reunited with his ginger sister, i lost the phone number that i was given so i'm posting this in the hope that i may find you again, kind regards michelle 07 8497744
Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...
Share your Christmas mishaps 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 ❤️
