Every day we get requests to take in cats where owners have become unwell due to age or have moved overseas. Please state the name and contact details of someone who would be willing to support the care and welfare of any animals in your household should you become unexpectedly unable to care for them. PLEASE NOTE: we undertake random checks of these contacts, please make sure this contact is aware of the responsibility being expected of them.

Before bringing a new cat/kitten home, we recommend you read up about settling in a new cat and carefully introducing any existing pets, so the transition is as stress-free as possible. We will send you information if you adopt from Fur Paws Sake, but you may want to read material such as the SPCA's guide https://www.spca.nz/images/assets/38598/1/cat-care-brochure-national-web.pdf and https://www.jacksongalaxy.com/blogs/news/the-dos-and-donts-of-introducing-cats in preparation.
