We're so happy you've joined us!
We‘re excited to start sharing our inspirational stories with you, keep you up to date with how we’re helping New Zealand's animals, and let you know when there are opportunities to give your support.
But you don't have to wait for our next email. Here are a few ways to get involved right now.
We first got Sage in February 2024 from the Rotorua SPCA when she was two months old. We called in just as a curious family one Saturday morning – and then the staff brought out this little puppy with the kindest eyes, and made our hearts melt! Next minute we're signing the papers and organising a time to come and pick her up.
Sage is now 10 months old and she has settled in to our family so well. She is super patient around the kids and has a lovely temperament. We feel like she was especially found just for us. Sage has a bubbly personality, loves walks, swimming and going for rides. She fits just right in to our home and family. We love having her and we are very grateful for the Rotorua SPCA for rescuing her.
Thank you to the staff at the Rotorua SPCA for being so supportive and helpful, you are all amazing!
