As animal lovers, we are devoted to putting our furry friends’ well-being at the centre of everything that we do.
That’s why we’ve made the decision not to sell cats and dogs in our stores. Instead, we support trusted animal rescue organisations across New Zealand - helping rescue pets find loving homes.
If you’re looking to add a new furry family member, why not consider adopting from your local rescue charity? Every year, thousands of lovable, healthy puppies, kittens, and adult pets are waiting for a forever family to call their own.
Our charity partners are dedicated to providing these animals with the care, attention, and love they need while in foster homes. They ensure each pet is carefully matched with the right family, so you can feel confident that your new pet is the perfect fit for you.
You’re saving a life
Every year, thousands of cats, dogs, kittens, and puppies in NZ need homes. By adopting, you’re not only saving a life and providing a forever home, but also freeing up space at rescues to help more animals in need.
Health-checked
Most rescue pets are vaccinated, microchipped, desexed, and health-checked before adoption.
Pets of all ages
Rescue pets come in all ages, whether you’re looking for a lively, playful kitten or puppy, or prefer an adult or senior pet.
Variety of breeds
Rescues have a wide variety of breeds, including purebreds, crossbreeds, and mixed-breeds—of all shapes and sizes!
Already trained
Many rescue dogs have obedience training, are well-socialised, and make great family pets. Rescue cats are often litter-trained and familiar with cat doors, making them easier to settle in.
Ethical choice
Adoption helps reduce the demand for unethical breeding and overpopulation, ensuring more pets find loving homes.

When adopting a pet, it’s important to know they’ve received the best care and are rehomed responsibly. That’s why we only partner with trusted, registered charities recognised by Charities Services as legitimate charitable entities. These organisations provide essential vet care, desexing, vaccinations, and thorough adoption processes to ensure every pet finds the right home.
