It’s our goal to Clear the Shelters, so we’re offering 50% off all adoption fees until Sunday 13 April. With 1,100 animals currently available for adoption across the country, we’d love for you to come along tomorrow and meet those waiting. ?
You can also head over to our website to check out their profiles, and register your interest early if there’s a particular cutie who catches your eye – this will speed things up on the day.
To keep the experience as calm and positive as possible for our animals and staff, we kindly ask that only those seriously considering adoption attend.
See you tomorrow!

More families are embracing multigenerational living—and for good reason! It’s not just about having everyone under one roof; it’s about shared expenses, built-in support, and stronger family connections.
💰 Financial Perks – Splitting mortgage, utilities, and maintenance costs can ease financial stress and free up funds for other investments.
👨👩👧👦 Built-in Support System – Grandparents, parents, and kids all benefit from the close-knit environment, whether it’s childcare, elder care, or just having loved ones nearby.
🏠 Finding the Right Home – Look for a layout that works for everyone—separate living spaces, multiple bathrooms, and accessibility features are key. And of course, location matters! Proximity to schools, healthcare, and amenities will make daily life easier for all generations.
Thinking about making the move? Let’s chat about the best multigenerational-friendly homes in the Tauranga area! 📩🏡

They may contact you by email, text, or phone, claiming:
🔹 You're owed a tax refund and must provide your bank details to receive it.
🔹 You owe tax and need to pay immediately to avoid legal trouble.
How to stay safe:
✅ Don’t click on links in emails or texts - log in to your myIR account directly.
✅ Check the sender - official IRD emails always end in @ird.govt.nz.
✅ Be cautious with texts - IRD only sends messages from four-digit codes, not
regular phone numbers.
