Opotiki Society for the Care of Animals Incorporated

OSCA INC. ~ caring for our community felines, focus on desexing. Help, recommend, assist ~ anything that we can provide we will.

Bay of Plenty

Opotiki Society for the Care of Animals Inc - known as OSCA Inc. Our focus is for the Opotiki community and for cats and kittens. We are open seven days a week, 365 days of the year and volunteer based.

Our town is a mix of urban and rural with a population of approximately 5,000 and extending into the rural community. We are here as we believe our town deserves a day to day face, a centre to come to, seek advice, provide help where we can.

Our main focus is to desex, to prevent unwanted kittens, all incomers are homed desexed, had one vaccination, micro-chipped and registered on the NZ Companion Animal Register, wormed and flea'd along with their vet booklet.

Our centre is open plan, where there is alot of human/feline interaction, the radio is on, lawn mower going and most day to day sounds, this seems to set our adoptees in good stead for settling into a new home well. We can provide the personal touch.

We wish to raise money for our centre to remain open 365 days, be a voice for animals in Opotiki, be able to provide vet treatment as necessary, continue our desexing programme and be that CENTRE for our felines.

More about us

OSCA Inc, was formed in Opotiki, Bay of Plenty after the SPCA branch was closed back in December 2018. We felt there was a definite need for a day to day face where people can come seeking advice and help. Our focus is cats and kittens.

OSCA UPDATE FOR JUNE 2024 24 June 2024

Wow, the time flies by these days. Suspect because we have been so busy with incoming kittens and adopting. We hit an all time high in March for incoming and have finally slowed down. We are so pleased to announce all of our 8 abandoned Motu kittens have now found a home, a few have taken extra care getting them through. From January to June we have homed 76 kittens and cats, with 95 cats desexed in that time too. OSCA has been running some funded dog desexing with 104 dogs desexed in 3 projects. Thank you to NZ Companion Animal Register and SPCA for those funds with OSCA topping up. We are proud of our achievements. Super big thank you to all our supporters who continue to think of us and support us through this medium or directly. With much appreciation, stay well, be kind and be happy. From all of us @OSCA Inc.
