Please help us to keep our animals safe. We need help to pay for the installation of security cameras.

Bay of Plenty

Animals have been left traumatised following two recent acts of vandalism at our centre. We now have no choice but to fundraise to install security cameras to keep our animals safe when we are not there. On the night of 5 Feb 2016 someone used a gun to shoot at our building, damaging windows, doors and flyscreens. Housed inside the building were animals that could not run away. Puppies and kittens were traumatised by the incident. Thankfully none of them had been directly hit by the bullets but they suffered nevertheless and in a place that is supposed to be a sanctuary for them. A second incident occured just over two weeks later when rocks were thrown at a newly replaced window. Cats and kittens were traumatised again. We want to deter anyone from ever attempting this kind of senseless behaviour ever again. Donations of any amount would be deeply appreciated.
