You could also set up a automatic weekly donation (and claim off against your tax at year end) for as little as 1-2 dollars a week (We call this our Change for Cats Club) or from 5 + dollars a week (and we call this Paw Pal Regular Givers). Information re both is on our website.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
