Help us help animals

There are several ways you can help animals. You can become a Member of the Humane Society, a volunteer, or a foster home. You can also donate or leave the Society a bequest .

Since 1975, we’ve been rescuing, rehabilitating and finding forever homes for cats & dogs.

The Humane Society of NZ advocates desexing as the primary way to prevent unwanted animals. As a not-for-profit organisation, we rely on private donations, bequests, and memberships to fund our work.
