We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome unwanted, abandoned and homeless cats and kittens in Whangarei and other areas of Northland.

Northland

Join us in helping each and every kitten we can!

With your help and support we are able to rehome 400+ kittens that would otherwise face a horrible life of desperate hunger, loneliness and survival.

With these donated funds we will buy food, litter, cages and keep our coffee flowing as we tackle the never-ending population of struggling cats in Whangarei and other areas of Northland.

We are a registered Charitable Trust.

From eating rubbish to a warm home  11 January 2022

This kitten was finally caught and surrendered to us by someone who said her mum was hit by a car 3 weeks ago and she was found eating out of the rubbish.

She is very weak, has diarrhoea and not eating much, so needs sub-cut fluids with dextrose every 8 hours. And we may need to take bloods and faeces sampling which all adds up.

Her recovery costs more than the usual kitten rescue situation and if you could donate even a few dollars, it all helps our charity with the medical bills.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
