SPCA Nelson

Available Pets

Jessie

Jessie

I am a Staffy X nearly 2 year old female. I have reasonable manners and are good with other dogs. I would not be suitable to be re-homed with cats as I am a keen rabbit chaser. I am slightly over weight at the moment, but some exercise and a strict diet will fix that.

Haze

Haze

My name is Haze and I am a 4 month old Huntaway / Beardie X male puppy. I have the loveliest nature. I seem to be house trained. I am going to benefit from obedience classes as it will complete my already good manners.

Princess

Princess

Hello my name is Princess and I am a 16 month old Persian female. I am going to need a very special home. I don?t like other cats, dogs or children. Ideally I would like my new family to be semi retired, able to tend to my every need and of course keep me in the style that a beautiful girl like myself is used too.

Tui

Tui

Hello my name is Tui and I am a very well mannered, softly spoken mixed breed, 8 month old female. I love other dogs, children and are good with cats. My only draw back is that I am not house trained.

Blackie

Blackie

My battle scars tell all the stories. Hello my name is Blackie and I am a 6 year old male black cat that has been around the block a few times. I am very talkative and just looking for a place to be able to catch a few mice; stretch my legs and rest my head at night. So if you are looking for a cat with character then come and give me a hug.

Leah

Leah

My name is Leah, I am a reserved adult female cat (approx 2 - 4 years old). I am quite aloof and not very cuddly but will soon warm up to my new family once I am settled in my new surroundings.

Deli

Deli

My name is Deli and I was abandoned by my previous owners. I am a very quite female but I am extremely affectionate once I get to know you. I would probably suit a semi retired family and definitely a home without other cats.

Ben

Ben

My name is Ben and I am a approx 5 year old Greyhound / Collie X. I am a nice natured boy but would be better as an outside dog. I get on well with other dogs, I know my basic commands.

Lizzie

Lizzie

Hello my name is Lizzie and I am a 22 month old Collie X. I love to run, chase and catch rabbits, so this makes having cats in the family an impossibility. I understand my basic commands and will be a very loyal friend.

Puppies

Puppies

We are 2 beautiful, 10 week old Collie X boy puppies. We have the sweetest of natures just like our mother. We will grow into large dogs, who will be loving and loyal family members.

Sherry

Sherry

My name is Sherry and I am a 12 month old female Shepherd X. I am very playful, keen to learn and just love children. I know my basic commands but would love to strut my stuff learning new tricks at obedience or agility.

AJ

AJ

I am a easy going, happy with my own company, Lab X male pup. I am great with other dogs and children and will make an excellent addition to any fun loving family or just someone that wants a great mate.

Lizzie

Autumn

I am one of the many new mums that are now ready for adoption since my kittens have flown the nest. I am very petite, loving and are just waiting to be adopted into your family.

Lizzie

Bruce

If you are looking for a smootchy, loving and very handsome male cat, then I am the boy for you. I have been brought up around small dogs but would prefer to be the only cat in the household. I am good with children and would make a lovely addition to any family.

Lizzie

Gypsy

Hello my name is Gypsy and I am an 18 month old, very loving female cat. I have been spoilt rotten by my previous owners, and are looking to find a new family to love.

Lizzie

Maggie

My name is Maggie and I am a 2 year old female, thats owners have moved and were not able to take me with them. I can be slightly reserved but then once I am settled into my new surroundings, I will definitely come out of my shell.

Shadow

I am an exceptionally beautiful, and exotic looking female adult cat. I adore cuddles; am extremely affectionate but would suit a quieter home without young children.

Current Strays

We often have stray animals brought into the SPCA Centre, such as Birds, Rabbits and Cats.

Found

19/02 Black Shorthaired Female cat - Washington Road Area.

22/02 Grey & White Medium Haired unknown aged cat - Nelson South.

22/02 4 month old  Tortishell Kitten - Stoke Area

 

Found

White male dog - Wairau Valley, Wash Bridge Area.

 

The SPCA works under the Animal Welfare Act 1999, which states in section 141 that the SPCA must take all reasonable steps to find the owner of the animal.

If an owner hasn't been found by the time the animal has been in our custody for 7 days we then have the right to either;

  • Sell the animal
  • Find a new home for the animal
  • Humanely euthanise the animal (this would only ever be done if for some reason the animal was not able to be re-homed)

We don't hold stray dogs. These are dealt with by your local council. Council phone numbers:
