ADOPT ME

Are you looking to add a new member to your family?

Adoption costs

  • Kittens - $200

  • Cats - $150

  • Puppies - $300

  • Dogs - $250

This fee helps us to cover all the essential treatments before adoption and also helps us to take care of more animals in need. 

 

At the time of adoption each animal will be dewormed, deflead, vaccinated, desexed, microchipped and come with a welcome pack. Some dogs will be registered for the remaining year but registration from the new year onwards and if they are not currently registered will be the responsibility of the new owner(s).

** Before the adoption is completed Ruahine Animal Rescue will conduct a property inspection to ensure the house and surroundings will be suitable for the pet. We will consider the environment including other pets and children, any special needs of the animal and fencing if required.

Max

Age: Approximately 3.5 months

Breed: Staffy Cross (M)

Available now

A little bit about me: Max is approximately 3 and a half months old male staffy cross, who will grow to a medium size dog. Max loves cuddles and sleep in's, and is great with small children and cats.

His favorite hobbies are sleeping, eating and playing with his foster sister, and  he also loves helping his cat brother finish his dinner.

 

Max has been working on his basic commands and has started to lead train which he is taking to well. 

Due to Max's age, he will need someone around for part of the day or most of the day, especially while he is young. Ideally, he should not be left alone for more than a couple hours at a time. This will help him settle into a new environment and routine, and help with toilet training. It will also allow for him to be fed midday meal and to be enriched at the same time.

Roe is trained to sleep in her crate during the night. She has also been tested with cats and happy to have a cat or kitten in the family. 

Due to Roe’s age, she will need someone around for part of the day or most of the day, especially while she is young. Ideally, Roe should not be left alone for more than a couple hours at a time.

Shylo 1.jpg

Shylo

Age: Approximately 6 years

Breed: Fox Terrier Cross (M)

Available now

A little bit about me: 

Shylo came to Ruahine Animal Rescue from the CHB Council for rehoming. He was adopted to a furrever home, unfortunately Shylo struggled being home during the day on his own, so would need someone who is home during the day.

Shylo is a sweet boy who gets along with larger dogs (careful introduction always recommended) unfortunately he is no good with cats.

Shylo can take a little time to warm up to people but once he knows he is safe he will be your best friend.

If you think you can offer some patience and give Shylo a Furrever home please contact the team.
