We're proud to be supporting SPCA's Free Dog Snip 'n' Chip Programme!

Desexing and microchipping helps reduce unwanted litters, improves identification, and supports responsible dog ownership.

✔️ Dogs at risk of roaming
✔️ Dogs that have had multiple litters
✔️ Dogs with behavioural issues
✔️ Owners facing financial hardship

❗ Please note: This programme is not available for dogs purchased from breeders or pet stores, as it is funded to support dogs in high-need or at-risk situations.

This is what NOT desexing your pet looks like.

This tiny kitten and his sibling arrived into our care early last week - not only was he cold and wet, he was sick, underweight, and covered in fleas. The two of them had been found out in the bush, and they must have been out there during the 3 days of torrential rain that we had just had prior.

We have named him Nemo and he is now being fostered by a staff member. Unfortunately his sibling was too far gone, and the only thing we could do was to help that one peacefully pass over 🌈 💔

This situation was entirely preventable.

We have been inundated with dumped/found kittens for the past 8 months. And puppies? It’s even worse. We are getting calls every day from Northlanders with unwanted litters of pups.

Please help us break the cycle, by getting ALL your pets desexed. It is the kindest and most responsible thing a pet owner can do - it prevents suffering before these unwanted animals are born. Even if your cat or dog is already pregnant, they can likely still be desexed now and prevent their next litter.

Contact our centre now for your FREE desexing voucher, the surgery is then done at a local vet clinic closest to you (we have a list for you to choose from). Call us on 09 407 7515 within our opening hours, and the voucher will be emailed to you.

Please share this information all over the Far North; we know many people are not on social media.

In the meantime, little Nemo is getting huge amounts of TLC - he is a very lucky kitty.

Cat Breed of the Month – Birman 🐾

Silky, soulful, and quietly magnificent. The Birman — also known as the Sacred Cat of Burma — carries an air of gentle mystery, and those deep blue eyes and snowy white "gloved" paws make them one of the most striking breeds around. 🤍💙

In general, Birmans can be:
- Gentle, calm, and wonderfully easy to live with
- Deeply affectionate without being overwhelming about it
- Sociable and people-oriented — they want to be near you, not necessarily on you
- Curious and quietly playful, even into older age
- Soft voiced and surprisingly expressive
- Tolerant and adaptable, making them great family cats
- Generally good with other pets, including dogs, when introduced carefully

Birmans sit in a lovely sweet spot — affectionate enough to be great companions, but not so needy that they can't cope with a normal busy household. They're often described as "dog-like" in their loyalty, following you from room to room with quiet devotion.

Because they are so people-focused, Birmans may be more trainable than many cats — they are likely to respond well to positive reinforcement and genuinely enjoy the interaction that comes with a short, fun training session. Teaching simple behaviours or tricks should be achievable with this breed.

Birmans tend not to make a fuss, which sounds ideal — but it does mean behavioural signs of anxiety or discomfort can be subtle and easy to miss (this is true of many cats). Getting to know your Birman's normal baseline behaviour is really important so you can spot early when something is off.

They also form strong bonds, so significant changes — a new pet, a new baby, moving home, more alone time — are worth managing carefully and gradually with this breed. Because they are so gentle and undemanding, it’s easy to underestimate how much they need environmental stability and consistency.

A breed that brings real calm and warmth to a home.

Is there a Birman in your life? Please share a photo, they deserve to be shown off! 👇
