We still have 135 long-stay animals in our care, waiting to find their forever homes! ? If you can provide the right home for them, you can adopt for just a donation/koha when you start the process by this Sunday, September 21st.

These wonderful animals have been waiting patiently for their special someone – could that be you? ? You might need to travel a bit further than your nearest SPCA Center, but we promise they're worth the journey.

Even though we’re waiving our standard adoption fees for our long-stays, every animal is desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms – all ready to head home with you. Meet all of our long-stays on our site now!

After 50 years without a sighting, the rare and quirky sailback houndshark has finally been spotted again in Papua New Guinea!

Because it’s been seen so rarely, scientists still know very little about it. But its striking features are already sparking debate about whether it should be given special protection, and some have even argued it could become an icon species for Papua New Guinea.

At a time when we so often hear about species disappearing, the return of this little shark is a reminder that nature can surprise us ... and that there’s always reason to hope.

You can read more about the sailback shark here

We hope this brings a smile!

Little Theatre, Lower Hutt - Oct 1st & 2nd
Tickets from Eventfinda - eventfinda.co.nz/2025/cinderella/wellington-region
Glass slippers, royal balls, and a Fairy Godmother who's still on her learner's licence, what could possibly go wrong?
Prince Percy is hopelessly charming (emphasis on hopeless), the Queen is busy approving new royal wave techniques (it's very hard work being a Queen!), the step-sisters are causing chaos in couture, and Buttons has big dreams!
Will true friendship win over fairy-tale romance? Will Buttons dreams come true? And who is behind the kingdom’s mysterious gossip vlog? Packed with music, mischief, and magical mayhem, this is Cinderella with a twist, a tune, and a whole lot of sparkle!
