Thank you for the lovely gift Gareth

When Gareth Jardine donated a wall cat-bed to our shelter, handsome Chico was the first to explore and then relax into it while he waits for that special someone to adopt him. Many thanks to Gareth for this unique gift and to trustee Paul for installing it. (Gareth is pictured with his dog Chocolat).

10% of New Zealander's don't eat meat

Good to see that 10% of New Zealander's don't eat meat now. Wonderful news for suffering animals, our health and the environment.

Ghost & Sweet Pea need a loving home together

Ghost (California White) and Sweet Pea (Dutch x Lop Ear) are a friendly, bonded pair who need a loving home with plenty of human company, a big enclosure and a stimulating play area to suit their large size and curious natures.

Ghost was rescued running back and forth across a busy suburban road and exploring garden verges. Thankfully he then came into our care. When Sweet Pea's caregivers moved house, the neighbours watched in disbelief as days became weeks and no-one returned for her. They kindly took her to a pet shop and we were contacted.

We have not looked for the people who abandoned Sweet Pea and sadly, even after intensive advertising, Ghost's original caregivers did not come forward. We have now had both of these delightful rabbits vet checked, de-sexed, micro-chipped and vaccinated in readiness for their new home. They have become an affectionate couple and must not be separated.

They are used to human attention and especially love to be stroked from nose to ears. They happily eat from our hands and hop over to say hello when we approach them.

Please apply for their adoption if you are in a position to spoil this beautiful couple for the rest of their natural lifespans and to keep them safe from dogs and other predators. The youngest child in your family must be at least nine years old.

NOTE: We are very grateful to Hibiscus Coast Veterinary Hospital for de-sexing all of our rescue bunnies at charity prices. Thank you Nick!

Our personal choices can stop animal suffering

We can choose to live kindly... or we can choose not to think about the suffering our choices cause. If you truly care about animals, please leave chicken and eggs off your plates good people.

One month of foster care needed for Pesque

Just to let everyone know that we have now completed our interview processes and Pesque has a wonderful home awaiting him in Lower Hutt. He will live with a vegetarian couple, two rescued sows and many other fortunate animals. However, we are still looking for a suitable foster home in the Auckland area where he can be neutered and stay for four weeks - to ensure he is no longer fertile. If you are able to offer him a safe stopover home, please contact us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
