Neuter and Spay – The Only Way
The Humane Society of New Zealand Inc endeavours to improve the situation of needy animals as it is made aware of them. We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome.
We rescue dogs from animal shelters when their seven-day period for claiming has ended and they are due for euthanasia. We rehabilitate these dogs according to their needs.
Dogs and cats are available for adoption to approved homes – details on our website.
The Humane Society was established as a registered charity in 1975 and is now registered with the Charities Commission. The Society is run totally by volunteers.
We receive no funding at all, relying on membership, donations and bequests to continue our work. The society does not own facilities but relies on its volunteers to take the rescued animals into their homes with their own families and animals.
We offer financial assistance to needy pet owners unable to afford the total amount of desexing family pets. Application forms can be downloaded from our website.
