SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Chewie

Reporter Community News

Chewie the rabbit.
"I came into SPCA with a damaged eye beyond repair. The wonderful vet team couldn't save it, so I had an operation to have it removed. It hasn't slowed me down at all, you just have to be aware that I can’t see you approaching me so please don't startle me.… View more

"I came into SPCA with a damaged eye beyond repair. The wonderful vet team couldn't save it, so I had an operation to have it removed. It hasn't slowed me down at all, you just have to be aware that I can’t see you approaching me so please don't startle me.
I would love to be a single indoor bunny where I get all the human attention. I am a clean boy and will go into my large litter tray for toileting. I love gentle pats on my head and sometimes come up to you for treats. I regularly binkie around super fast, and when I'm tired I do bunny flops as I am a happy boy.
I love space and the outdoors so I will need a large grassy area with a weatherproof hutch for outside during the day. My indoor area must be big enough for me to spend the day and night comfortably. My caregivers ask that rabbits always come inside at night, to be part of the family and to keep me safe. I could go to a home with friendly cats as I've met some before."

We think it is still a bit early to be planting outdoors as the ground temperature has not warmed up sufficiently and the weather is pretty variable. However, you can get your plants off to a great start in a pot in a sunny spot for a couple more weeks. They'll thank you for the tlc!
Zucchini, beans and snow peas can be planted straight away. Capsicum and chilli still a couple of weeks away. So come on down to the Waikanae Market on Saturday morning or Otaki on Sunday and see what we have this week.
