New Plymouth Centre
Making a difference in North Taranaki
Volunteer with usThe SPCA Centre in New Plymouth, North Taranaki, was established in 1912 and is well supported by the community.
The Animal Welfare Inspector team investigate complaints of cruelty and neglect for the whole of the Taranaki Region.
We are extremely fortunate to have the facilities and land (11 acres) to care for a wide range of animals including dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, small animals, birds and livestock. All animals that come into our centre each year are cared for by our dedicated staff and our team of amazing volunteers.
Our centre has a small retail area which sells pet care products, toys and pet food - almost everything you need for your new adopted family member.

Thank you for looking to desex your pet.
Making desexing accessible to everyone is important to us. Scientific research has proven that a desexed animal lives a happier and healthier life. They are less likely to get into fights, can be more affectionate and friendly, and have a reduced risk of health issues such as cancer. We believe desexing and microchipping is one of the key ways to improve animal welfare.
We run Snip ‘n’ Chip campaigns for cats across the country at different times of the year. To check if vouchers are available in your area visit https://book.spcadesexing.nz/
For more information on desexing, please visit www.spcadesexing.nz or email snipnchip@spca.nz
Alternatively, please contact your local SPCA Centre for local assistance and advice.
