Busy week

Despite the bad weather we have had a productive week. We have planted trees in our new aviary. I am very excited that it is nearly ready to be used, we just need to make a flash new shelter and a flash new perch. We built a big new perch to go in with our hawks, it is really fun I can’t wait to make more tomorrow. We have prepared the roof of Piggy Sue's shelter so that it can be painted as soon as the weather improves, hopefully tomorrow.

Three of our rescued cats have been rehomed so far. We still have more cats so if you know of anyone looking for a new addition to their family we have very special cats looking for the right home.

We picked up an injured Tui and Morepork. The Tui has been taken to the zoo for treatment. Once he is better we will rehabilitate him in our new aviary :-). The Morepork is doing better; he is now eating on his own.

Since having the HUHA truck we have quadrupled, the amount of fruit and veggies we get weekly. The animals are loving it! They are happy and fat ready for winter. Before the truck we were picking it all up on our horse float but there would be too much we would have to turn some away otherwise it would be unsafe driving the horse float back. We get heaps more green veggies which is great roughage plus we have just spent $3000 on baleage.

I am in the process of writing updates for our sponsored animals (they should be ready over the next week or two). If you aren’t familiar with our sponsorship program click here for more information.
All sponsors get a sponsorship pack with the story about their animal, an invitation to the sanctuary to visit the sponsored animal, sponsorship certificate and a photo of the animal. Throughout the year updates on what the sponsored animal has been doing is also provided.
